A high fat diet increases mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation and uncoupling to decrease efficiency in rat heart. by M.A, Cole, A.J, Murray, L.E, Cochlin, L.C, Heather, S., McAleese, N.S, Knight, E., Sutton, Abd. Jamil, Amira Hajirah, N., Parassol, K., Clarke

“…Elevated levels of cardiac mitochondrial uncoupling protein 3 (UCP3) and decreased cardiac efficiency (hydraulic power/oxygen consumption) with abnormal cardiac function occur in obese, diabetic mice. To determine whether cardiac mitochondrial uncoupling occurs in non-genetic obesity, we fed rats a high fat diet (55% kcal from fat) or standard laboratory chow (7% kcal from fat) for 3 weeks, after which we measured cardiac function in vivo using cine MRI, efficiency in isolated working hearts and respiration rates and ADP/O ratios in isolated interfibrillar mitochondria; also, measured were medium chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD) and citrate synthase activities plus uncoupling protein 3 (UCP3), mitochondrial thioesterase 1 (MTE-1), adenine nucleotide translocase (ANT) and ATP synthase protein levels. …”

Expansion of human articular chondrocytes and formation of tissue-engineered cartilage: A step towards exploring a potential use of matrix-induced cell therapy by Sha'ban, Munirah, Osman Cassim, Samsudin, Saim, Aminuddin, Idrus, Ruszymah

“…Harvested chondrocytes were incorporated with plasma-derived fibrin and were polymerized to form the 3D constructs and implanted subcutaneously at the dorsum of athymic nude mice for eight (8) weeks. Resulted constructs were assigned for gross inspections and microscopic evaluation using standard histochemicals staining, immunochemistry technique and, quantitative phenotypic expression of cartilage markers to reassure cartilaginous tissue formation. …”

Tumorigenic role of podoplanin in esophageal squamous-cell carcinoma by ., Nur Rahadiani, Ikeda, Jun-ichiro, Makino, Tomoki, Tian, Tian, Qiu, Ying, Mamat, Suhana, Wang, Yi, Doki, Yuichiro, Aozasa, Katsuyuki, Morii, Eiichi

“…Cancer cells comprise a heterogeneous group of cells, among which only a small population of cells possesses the ability to reconstitute a whole tumor.1–3 This population, called cancer stem cells (CSCs), efficiently forms colonies in semisolid culture and is xenotransplantable in nonobese diabetic/severe combined immunodeficiency (NOD/SCID) mice.4 CSCs were first identified in leukemia and subsequently isolated from solid tumors, such as those of breast, brain, prostate, melanoma, colon, pancreas, head/neck, liver, and gastric cancers.5–15 CSCs are known to be resistant to chemotherapy and radiotherapy and are more invasive than non-CSCs. …”
