Purpose: Preclinical model systems should faithfully reflect the complexity of the human pathology. In hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the tumor vasculature is of particular interest in diagnosis and therapy. By comparing two commonly applied preclinical model systems, diethylnitrosamine induced (DE...

Persons with Chronic Granulomatous Disease, are susceptible to a narrow range of infections resulting from the failure of cells to generate toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) required for phagocytice oxidative killing of microorganisms. For unknown reasons, many inflammatory conditions (inflammato...

Understanding species' responses to environmental change underpins our abilities to make predictions on future biodiversity under any range of scenarios. In spite of the huge biodiversity in most ecosystems, a model species approach is often taken in environmental studies. To date, we still do not k...

There is no accurate and well-validated short-term test for non-genotoxic carcinogens, necessitating an expensive two year rodent bioassay before a risk assessment can begin. We have developed a short-term in vivo rat assay that predicts whether non-genotoxic chemicals are likely to induce hepatic t...

GABAergic interneurons are lost in conditions including epilepsy and CNS injury, but there are few culture models available to study their function. Towards the goal of obtaining renewable sources of GABAergic neurons, we used the molecular profile of a functionally-incomplete GABAergic precursor c...

A definition of RNA expression changes that correlate with liver response programs and an understanding of the similarities and differences in responses to different classes of chemicals would aid in new chemical or drug characterization and add to our understanding of liver biology. We have used a ...
