An important goal of the present work was to test the suitability of liver slices as a model to study PPARα dependent gene regulation and compare it with other available model systems for human liver.
This is the first report describing this multiplex technique for liver fibrosis and has provided the proof of concept of the suitability of RNA extracted from paraffin sections for investigating the modulation of a panel of proinflammatory and profibrogenic genes.
To evaluate the suitability of a questionnaire designed to assess the knowledge of patients on the waiting list for liver transplantation, through a pilot study.
We thus first confirmed their suitability for efficient miRNA depletion in the livers of adult animals.
The liver target character of PEG-GA conjugates made them potential prodrugs for liver cancer treatment.
Some studies however, have suggested that when administered after chemically-induced initiation, I3C may have promoting activity in liver, raising concerns as to its suitability for use as a chemopreventive agent in humans [ 12- 15].
SIRT requires a hepatic arteriogram and a liver-to-lung breakthrough nuclear medicine scan to ensure suitability for receiving this procedure, and to plan the delivery of the SIR-spheres.
Over the range of activities investigated, comparable performance between GE Healthcare and Siemens ToF systems suggests suitability for quantitative analysis in a scenario analogous to that of postradioembolization imaging for treatment of liver cancer.
Suitability for use in population studies.
Suitability for graduate study or profession.
