Dysregulation of immune responses within joints plays an important role in development of inflammatory arthritis. We determined expression of a panel of immune response and matrix turnover genes in synovial fluid collected from a group of dogs with stifle oligoarthritis and associated degenerative
OBJECTIVE
The prediction of an intrabiliary rupture of a hepatic hydatid cyst using associated clinical factors is important for early diagnosis and proper management.
METHODS
Case series of patients with hepatic hydatid cysts treated between January 1, 1992, and January 1, 2000, in a single
To measure changes in bone alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1) activity in serum as a function of duration of pregnancy, we adapted our existing alkaline phosphatase (ALP) isoenzyme assay (which has been used to measure bone, hepatic, and intestinal ALP activities in serum, in the absence of placental
Shigella enters epithlial cells via internalization into a vacuole. Subsequent vacuolar membrane rupture allows bacterial escape into the cytosol for replication and cell-to-cell spread. Bacterial effectors such as IpgD, a PI(4,5)P2 phosphatase that generates PI(5)P and alters host actin, facilitate
Alterations in the capillary density of the M. biceps brachii was studied in 20 cases during 2 months after spontaneous rupture of the tendon. The fiber typing was done using succinic dehydrogenase and myofibrillar ATP-ase at pH 9.4 for the staining, the capillaries were visualized with alkaline
Spontaneous rupture of choledochal cysts is one of the rare complications, and can sometimes be the initial manifestation. It should be considered in the presence of bile-like fluid. A 10-year-old girl had acute onset of abdominal pain, vomiting, and elevated bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase,
Of 58 cases of obstructive jaundice treated in a three year period, six were due to the intrabiliary rupture of hydatid cysts of the liver. Eosinophilia of more than 10%, raised alkaline phosphatase, positive indirect haemagglutination test were noted in all six cases. Plain X-ray of the abdomen,
The effect of NCO-700 (1), a protease inhibitor, on subcellular distribution of lysosomal enzymes was studied in the ischemic perfused rat heart. Ischemia was induced by lowering the afterload pressure of the working heart preparation. The subcellular distribution of lysosomal enzymes was estimated
Injury of the bile duct after blunt trauma is rare but injury and rupture of the intrapancreatic portion of the bile duct is extremely rare. Injury is very difficult to recognize even if explorative laparotomy is done. Elevation of the liver tests, especially gamma GT and alkaline phosphatase, is
OBJECTIVE
The most common complication of hydatid liver cysts is spontaneous rupture into the biliary tract. This study was conducted to evaluate the surgical management of spontaneous intrabiliary rupture of a hydatid liver cyst in 41 patients.
METHODS
The preoperative diagnosis was confirmed by
Protoplasts of Bacillus stearothermophilus NCA 1503-4R are resistant to osmotic rupture and are not sensitive to mechanical manipulation. Protoplast stability is maintained by divalent cations. The thermostability of protoplasts is enhanced when the cells are grown at elevated temperatures. The
OBJECTIVE
To localize cathepsin K and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) in synovium and cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) of dogs with cruciate disease.
METHODS
Dogs (n=15) with cruciate disease and ruptured CCL, and 12 dogs with intact CCL.
METHODS
Synovium and CCL were examined
Tissue nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (AP) plays a well-known role in bone mineralization. This role was first suggested by a human AP deficiency disease, hypophosphatasia. Further studies with AP gene knockout mice have also suggested a role for AP in mineralization. However, AP is also expressed
