STORYTELLING OF MYOCARDIAL BIOPSY

Storytelling of Myocardial Biopsy

A biopsy Gift Card involves the removal of a piece or an entire organ from a living patient.The former began with open heart surgery (surgical pathology) and the latter with the recipient heart in cardiac transplantation.Transvenous or transarterial catheterization is the current procedure to performed endomyocardial biopsy with bioptome from the v

Eimeria tenella protein trafficking: differential regulation of secretion versus surface tethering during the life cycle

Abstract Eimeria spp.are intracellular parasites that have a major impact on poultry.Effective live vaccines are available and the development of reverse genetic technologies has raised the prospect of using Eimeria spp.as recombinant vectors to express additional immunoprotective antigens.To study the ability of Eimeria to secrete foreign antigens

A deficiency of apoptosis inducing factor (AIF) in Harlequin mouse heart mitochondria paradoxically reduces ROS generation during ischemia-reperfusion

Background and Aims: AIF (apoptosis inducing factor) is a flavin and NADH containing protein located within Axles mitochondria required for optimal function of the respiratory chain.AIF may function as an antioxidant within mitochondria, yet when released from mitochondria it activates caspase-independent cell death.The Harlequin (Hq) mouse has a m

CHCHD4 regulates tumour proliferation and EMT-related phenotypes, through respiratory chain-mediated metabolism

Abstract Background Mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) via the respiratory chain is required for the maintenance of tumour cell proliferation and regulation of epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related phenotypes through mechanisms that are not fully understood.The essential mitochondrial import protein coiled-coil helix coil
