The nature of bile duct-like (oval) cells proliferating during chemical hepatocarcinogenesis has been controversial. To investigate this issue further, the authors compared the hepatic distribution of albumin (ALB) and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) mRNAs in rats in which oval cell proliferation was
OBJECTIVE
To determine the efficacy and safety of percutaneous ethanol injection (PEI) for the treatment of hyperthyroidism caused by bilateral hyperplastic thyroid nodules in cats. DESIGN; Prospective study.
METHODS
7 cats.
METHODS
Hyperthyroidism was diagnosed on the basis of clinical signs and
OBJECTIVE
Accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) in the vessel wall has been implicated in atherogenesis. The aim of our study was to examine the effects of local application of glycated bovine serum albumin (AGE-BSA) on collar-induced intimal hyperplasia in a diabetes-free
Studies of serum protein patterns done in a group of 42 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (PBH) revealed the following: (1) prior to the operation significant hypalbuminaemia and increase of alpha 2-, beta- and gamma-globulins, IgG, IgA, IgM and CRP levels; (2) 12 days after operation a
Chronic foci of infection, and primarily an inflammatory affection of the biliary system revealed in 58.3 per cent of persons with endemic hyperplasia of the thyroid gland of the I and II degree promoted an increase in cholesterolemia and caused a more pronounced (than in the absence of focal
OBJECTIVE
To demonstrate that modulation of plasma cholesterol concentrations affects prosthetic vascular graft anastomotic intimal hyperplasia (AIH), aortic grafts were examined histologically and biochemically in 41 rabbits.
METHODS
Twenty-seven rabbits were fed standard rabbit diet, whereas 14
Nodular regenerative hyperplasia is a histopathological diagnosis characterized by the diffuse transformation of the liver parenchyma into regenerative nodules associated with rheumatologic and hematologic disorders, azathioprine immunosuppression or vascular injuries. The authors report the case of
OBJECTIVE
The study was designed to evaluate the hemato-biochemical alterations, urinalysis along with histomorphological and histological changes of prostate glands in dogs affected with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in and around Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India.
METHODS
In toto, 445 dogs presented
BACKGROUND
Ischemia-modified albumin (IMA) has been shown to be a rapidly rising and sensitive biochemical marker for the diagnosis of myocardial ischemia. In this study, we evaluated the levels of IMA in myocardial infarction and prostate diseases, as well as the influence of HDL cholesterol levels
The following hypothesis is proposed: that hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP), experimentally induced in rats, is the cause of a thickening in the alveolar wall, a decrease in the size of the alveole, hyperplasia in the bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue (BALT) and hypertrophy in the goblet cells.
Arthritis was produced in beagles by the immunological reaction to bovine serum albumin (BSA). Dogs immunized with BSA showed the development of delayed type-hypersensitivity response to BSA and the significant increase in the titer of serum anti-BSA antibodies. The development of arthritis and the
A bloodspot assay has been developed using an antiserum raised against androstenedione-3-carboxymethyloxime-bovine serum albumin (AD-3CMO-BSA) conjugate and 125I-AD-3CMO-histamine tracer. The method has a detection limit of 0.6 nmol/L blood and a working range from 0.6 to 40 nmol/L blood. The
BACKGROUND
We evaluated the pattern of baldness and serum androgen levels in patients with benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate cancer. BPH, prostate cancer and androgenic alopecia (AA) were somehow androgen dependent and affect large population of elderly men.
METHODS
A total of 152
This study examined the effect of fibronectin to prevent restenosis in a microswine model after balloon angioplasty of the right iliac artery. Immediately following angioplasty, fourteen hypercholesterolemic microswines were randomized to receive fibronectin (223.5 mg, n = 8) or saline containing
Structural changes of human serum albumin (HSA) caused by old age and coexisting diseases result in differences in the binding of doxazosin (DOX). DOX is a postsynaptic α1- adrenoreceptor antagonist used for treatment of hypertension and benign prostatic hyperplasia. In elderly people suffering from
