The effect of different types of hepatic injury on the estrogen and androgen receptor activity of liver [PDF]
Mammalian liver contains receptors for both estrogens and androgens. Hepatic regeneration after partial hepatectomy in male rats is associated with a loss of certain male-specific hepatic characteristics.

Management of Patent Ductus Arteriosus in Term or Near-term Neonates With Respiratory Distress
Respiratory distress and patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in neonates are mutually perpetuating. Contrary to the situation in premature infants, the recognition, clinical relevance and optimal management of PDA in full-term neonates are unclear.

Accidental hepatic artery ligation in humans [PDF]
Despite the vast amount of information from experimental animals, it has been difficult to obtain a clear-cut picture of the effects of ligation of the hepatic artery in humans with relatively normal livers.

An improved protocol for small RNA library construction using High Definition adapters [PDF]
Next generation sequencing of small RNA (sRNA) libraries is widely used for studying sRNAs in various biological systems. However, cDNA libraries of sRNAs are biased for molecules that are ligated to adapters more or less efficiently than other molecules.

Surgical treatment of patent ductus arteriosus in different age groups [PDF]
Background Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is the continuation into postnatal life of a normal fetal vascular structure that makes an anatomical connection between the central pulmonary arterial system and the systemic arterial system.

Obinutuzumab-mediated high-affinity ligation of FcγRIIIA/CD16 primes NK cells for IFNγ production [PDF]
Natural killer (NK) cell-mediated antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), based on the recognition of IgG-opsonized targets by the low-affinity receptor for IgG FcγRIIIA/CD16, represents one of the main mechanisms by which therapeutic antibodies

Identification of a novel motif in DNA ligases exemplified by DNA ligase IV [PDF]
DNA ligase IV is an essential protein that functions in DNA non-homologous end-joining, the major mechanism that rejoins DNA double-strand breaks in mammalian cells. LIG4 syndrome represents a human disorder caused by mutations in DNA ligase IV that lead

The Latest Advance in Bracket Technology: Self-Ligating Brackets
During the last 10 years, a wide range of metal, plastic, and ceramic brackets, based on the straight-wire system, have become available. The latest advance in bracket improvement is the development of self-ligating brackets in orthodontics.

Use of the Electrothermal Vessel Sealing System Versus Standard Vessel Ligation in Thyroidectomy
The electrothermal vessel sealing system (LigaSure(tm)) facilitates operative haemostasis by fusing blood vessel walls to form a collagen seal. The LigaSure(tm) is currently used in a variety of gastrointestinal, gynaecological and urological operations.
