Abstract:

An in vitro system has been developed to study N-acetyltransferase (NAT) activity using human liver slices in dynamic organ culture. Acetylation of para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) and sulfamethazine (SMZ) in the presence of human liver slices was monitored by measuring the disappearance of the parent amine from the incubation medium using the colorimetric procedure of Bratton & Marshall. Presence of the acetyl conjugate was confirmed using HPLC. PABA acetylation rates varied from 0.72-2.52 nmoles/hr/mg protein (n = 8). This small variation (4 fold) is consistent with the classification of PABA a

Abstract:

The metabolism of lignocaine to monoethylglycinexylidide has been found useful as an indicator of hepatic function in association with liver transplantation. It has been postulated that this might be due to the common effect of hypoxic damage on liver function and lignocaine metabolism. The aim of this work was to establish whether hepatic lignocaine elimination was impaired by hypoxia and whether lignocaine extraction ratio and clearance could be used as an indicator of hepatic function. This was studied using the isolated pig liver perfused via the hepatic artery and portal vein. To establis

Abstract:

Laboratory serum biochemical tests are regarded by the Liver Study Group (LSG) of the WSAVA as an essential component of any liver investigation. The LSG categorised liver disease into four groups: vascular disorders, biliary disorders; parenchymal disorders and neoplasia. The laboratory tests that evaluate the liver have three categories. The cytosolic enzymes assess hepatocellular integrity; the cholestatic or inducible enzymes assess the biliary tree, liver excretory pathways and possible enzyme induction. The third category is the liver function tests which assess overall hepatic functiona

Abstract:

There is a great deal of effort by medical educators in the instruction of the use of computers for clinical practice but little training in the methods and utility of computer applications in clinical research. In this paper I present a method for the application of computer analytic tools to clinical research. The steps described lead the student through the standard clinical research process and demonstrate the decision making that must take place in each step of any clinical research program. This example is based upon a valid and unique research question relating to my particular field of

Abstract:

[Truncated abstract] The hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a significant human pathogen for which there are limited post-infection therapies and no effective vaccine. Research into HCV is notoriously difficult due to the absence of suitable in vitro and in vivo model systems with which to study the virus. Furthermore, our understanding of HCV host interaction is limited and the mechanisms by which it subverts the host immune system remains largely unknown. Due to the difficult nature associated with studying HCV, the work presented in this thesis was designed to addresses a broad range of issues rela

Propagé par la piqûre d’un moustique femelle du genre Anopheles, le parasite du paludisme (Plasmodium) migre dans la circulation sanguine et infecte les cellules hépatiques de la victime. Dans le foie, le parasite se différencie et se reproduit par schizogonie à l’intérieur d’une vacuole parasitophore pour compléter la production de plusieurs milliers de mérozoïtes par cellule hépatique infectée. Ces mérozoïtes sont par la suite libérés dans la circulation sanguine où ils infectent les érythrocytes circulants dan

INTRODUÇÃO. A definição de insuficiência hepática pós-operatória (IHP) não é ainda padronizada, dificultando a comparação de inovações em procedimentos hepáticos e tornando complexo o uso de possíveis intervenções terapêuticas pós- operatórias em um momento adequado. CASUÍSTICA E MÉTODOS. Entre 1998 e 2002, 775 resecções hepáticas eletivas, dos quais 531 (69%) por doenças malignas e 464 (60%) consistindo em hepatectomias maiores, foram incluídas de maneira prospectiva em um banco de dados.
