LIVER TRANSPLANTATION FOR HEPATOCELLULAR CARCINOMA: IMPLICATIONS OF EXPANDING AGE LIMITS IN LOW-DONATION SETTINGS IN LATIN AMERICA

Annals of Hepatology
Introduction and Objectives: In Costa Rica, liver transplantation (LT) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is legally restricted to patients under 65 years. This limits curative options and may favor patients receiving exception MELD points. The country’s

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Assessment of hepatic steatosis of potential living donor before liver transplantation using liver/spleen CT attenuation ratio compared to liver biopsy

The Egyptian Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, 2023
Background Hepatic steatosis has become a major worldwide health problem, so assessment of hepatic steatosis in potential living donors is crucial prior to liver transplantation.

A Cre‐dependent lentiviral vector for neuron subtype‐specific expression of large proteins

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We designed a versatile and modular lentivector comprising a Cre‐dependent switch and self‐cleaving 2A peptide and tested it for co‐expression of GFP and a 2.8 kb gene of interest (GOI) in mouse cortical parvalbumin (PV+) interneurons and midbrain dopamine (TH+) neurons.

The IQ‐compete assay for measuring mitochondrial protein import efficiencies in living yeast cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The efficiency of mitochondrial protein import depends on the properties of the newly synthesized precursor proteins. The Import and de‐Quenching Competition (IQ‐compete) assay is a novel method to monitor the import efficiency of different proteins by fluorescence in living yeast cells.
