Amebic Liver Abscess: An Unusual Cause of Budd-Chiari Syndrome. [PDF]
Amebiasis is a significant public health issue in tropical regions, with liver abscess as its most common extraintestinal complication. Budd–Chiari syndrome secondary to amoebic liver abscess is rare and seldom reported. We present a 37‐year‐old man with poorly controlled Type 1 diabetes who developed fever, abdominal pain and distension.

Discovery and Characterization of Multiple Classes of Human CatSper Blockers
High‐throughput screening identified seven hit series as novel inhibitors of the cation channel of sperm (CatSper), a validated male contraceptive target. CatSper channel blockade was confirmed by patch clamp electrophysiology. The most promising analog was found to be a potent CatSper inhibitor with high selectivity for CatSper over hCav1.2, hNav1.5 ...

Abstract Endometriosis (EM) is defined as endometrial tissues found outside the uterus. Growth and development of endometriotic cells in ectopic sites can be promoted via multiple pathways, including MAPK/MEK/ERK, PI3K/Akt/mTOR, NF‐κB, Rho/ROCK, reactive oxidative stress, tumor necrosis factor, transforming growth factor‐β, Wnt/β‐catenin, vascular ...

Focus Issue on Male Infertility
Male infertility problems can occur when sperms are limited in number or function. In this paper, we describe the clinical evaluation of male infertility. A detailed history, physical examination, and basic semen analysis are required. In addition, ultrasound, karyotyping, and hormonal studies are needed to determine specific causes of infertility.

The aqueous extract of Psidium guajava budding leaves (PE) bears an extremely high content of polyphenolic and isoflavonoids. Whether it could be used as an anti‐tumor chemopreventive in view of anti‐angiogenesis and anti‐migration, we performed the assay methods including the MTT assay to examine the cell viability; the ELISA assay to test the ...

The Role of Lipopeptidophosphoglycan in the Immune Response to Entamoeba histolytica
The sensing of Pathogen Associated Molecular Patterns (PAMPs) by innate immune receptors, such as Toll‐like receptors (TLRs), is the first step in the inflammatory response to pathogens. Entamoeba histolytica, the etiological agent of amebiasis, has a surface molecule with the characteristics of a PAMP.
