Additionally, iv injection of Phe increased blood pressure and bradycardia to the same extent and activated equivalent numbers of neurons in the nucleus of the solitary tract and the caudal ventrolateral medulla as well as cholinergic neurons of the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus and the nucleus ambiguus between control and PD animals. In summary, these data showed that in the PD model, impairment of cardiovascular autonomic control was observed only during deactivation of the baroreflex, which could be related to reduced activation of non-C1 neurons within the RVLM. BACKGROUND A correlation between ACS and neonatal hypoglycemia has been recently demonstrated. AIMS The aim of the study was to evaluate the determinants of neonatal hypoglycemia in women exposed to ACS for respiratory distress syndrome prevention. MATERIAL AND METHODS Retrospective, multicenter, cohort study conducted in two Tertiary University Units. All fetuses delivered from 2016 to 2017 after ACS (two doses i.m. of Betamethasone 12 mg 24 h apart) were considered eligible for the study purpose. The primary outcome was the incidence of hypoglycemia, defined as a glycemic value ≤45 mg/dl within the first 48 h of neonatal life. The effect on neonatal glycaemia due to timing (interval from exposure to delivery) and type (single completed, single partial or repeated course) of ACS administration was also assessed. RESULTS Overall, 99 neonates met the inclusion criteria. Hypoglycemia occurred in 38/99 (38.4%) of the included newborns. Compared to normoglycemic neonates, those with hypoglycemia had lower gestational age at delivery (33.06 ± 3.37 vs. 35.94 ± 3.17 g; p  less then  0.0001). Lower birthweight (1747.28 ± 815.29 vs. 2499.24 ± 780.51 g; p  less then  0.0001), a shorter interval time from administration to delivery (1.85 ± 2.59 vs. 3.34 ± 3.39 weeks; p = 0.02) and a higher incidence of single partial course (23.7 vs. 8.72%; p = 0.03). Multivariate logistic regression found that only birthweight was significantly associated with neonatal hypoglycemia (OR 0.4 95% CI -1.16/-0.04; p  less then  0.038). CONCLUSION Hypoglycemia occurs in a large proportion of fetuses exposed to ACS independently from the type of exposure (single partial/single completed) and from the time interval between ACS administration and delivery. Birthweight seems to be the strongest determinant for the occurrence neonatal hypoglycemia after antenatal administration of steroids for lung maturation. A facultative exoelectrogen strain Lsc-8 belonging to the Cellulomonas genus with the ability to degrade carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) coupled with the reduction of Cr(VI), was successfully isolated from rumen content. The maximum output power density of the microbial fuel cells (MFCs) inoculated strain Lsc-8 was 9.56 ± 0.37 mW·m-2 with CMC as the sole carbon source. From the biomass analysis it can be seen that the electricity generation of the MFCs was primarily attributed to the planktonic cells of strain Lsc-8 rather than the biofilm attached on the electrode, which was different from Geobacter sulfurreducens. Especially, during electricity generation of the MFCs using CMC as carbon source in the anode chamber, the Cr(VI) reduction were simultaneously realized. And it is also found that the Cr(VI) reduction ratio by strain Lsc-8 is directly related to the initial Cr(VI) concentration, and it increased with the increase of initial Cr(VI) concentration at first, then started to decrease when the Cr(VI) concentration was above 21 mg ·L-1. Meanwhile, the highest output power density of 3.47 ± 0.28 mW·m-2 was observed coupling with 95.22 ± 2.72 % of Cr(VI) reduction. These data suggested that the strain Lsc-8 could reduce high toxicity Cr(VI) to low toxicity Cr(III) coupled with electricity generation in MFCs with CMC as the carbon source. Our results also suggested that this study will provide a possibility to simultaneously degrade Cr(VI) and generate electricity by using cellulose as the carbon source via MFCs. Acquired resistance and intrinsic to sorafenib therapy represents a major hurdle in improving the management of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which has been recently shown to be associated with the emergence of liver cancer stem cells (CSCs). However, it remains largely unknown whether and how histone posttranslational modifications, especially H3K27me3, are causally linked to the maintenance of self-renewal ability in sorafenib-resistant HCC. Here, we found that NOTCH1 signaling was activated in sorafenib-resistant HCC cells and NOTCH1 activation conferred hepatoma cells sorafenib resistance through enhanced self-renewal and tumorigenecity. Besides, the overexpression of EZH2 was required for the emergence of cancer stem cells following prolonged sorafenib treatment. As such, modulating EZH2 expression or activity suppressed activation of NOTCH1 pathway by elevating the expression of NOTCH1-related microRNAs, hsa-miR-21-5p and has-miR-26a-1-5p, via H3K27me3, and consequently weakened self-renewal ability and tumorigenecity and restored the anti-tumor effects of sorafenib. Overall, our results highlight the role of EZH2/NICD1 axis, and also suggest that EZH2 and NOTCH1 pathway are rational targets for therapeutic intervention in sorafenib-resistant HCC. The increase in the life expectancy of patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in the last decade is due to changes that have occurred in the area of preclinical studies. Understanding cancer pathophysiology and the emergence of new therapeutic options, including immunotherapy, would not be possible without proper research. Before new approaches to disease treatment are developed and introduced into clinical practice they must be preceded by preclinical tests, in which animal studies play a significant role. AZD-5153 6-hydroxy-2-naphthoic This review describes the progress in animal model development in kidney cancer research starting from the oldest syngeneic or chemically-induced models, through genetically modified mice, finally to xenograft, especially patient-derived, avatar and humanized mouse models. As there are a number of subtypes of RCC, our aim is to help to choose the right animal model for a particular kidney cancer subtype. The data on genetic backgrounds, biochemical parameters, histology, different stages of carcinogenesis and metastasis in various animal models of RCC as well as their translational relevance are summarized.
