Brown adipose tissue activity was similar in all groups.
Even distribution of vimentin, an extracellular matrix protein expressed by stellate cells, illustrates continuous connective tissue activity in liver spheroids during the 15-day co-culture.
Broeders EPM, Nascimento EBM, Havekes B, Brans B, Roumans KHM, Tailleux A et al. The bile acid chenodeoxycholic acid increases human brown adipose tissue activity.
Because molecular imaging allows researchers to watch tissue activity in real time in live animals, "you can understand earlier if you're really modifying a disease with a drug," rather than just controlling symptoms, Peterson points out.
Kooijman S, van den Berg R, Ramkisoensing A, Boon MR, Kuipers EN, Loef M et al. Prolonged daily light exposure increases body fat mass through attenuation of brown adipose tissue activity.
In addition, Histone 3 (VrH3) and a hexose transporter (VrHT1) expression were monitored as a measure of tissue activity.
Tumor-to-normal tissue activity concentration ratio.
The tissue activity concentrations were obtained from the VOIs on the last 900-s image.
The vertical axis is the total tissue activity (FDG6P + FDG) normalized to 100.
Fig. 2 Tissue activity curves with activity expressed in percentage of injected dose per organ.
Conventionally, the standardized uptake value (SUV), a quantitative measure of tissue activity, is widely used in assessing PET images.
