Inducing the Entry of Third Stage Dispersal Juveniles of Bursaphelenchus xylophilus into Cryptobiosis Through Osmotic Regulation05:15

Inducing the Entry of Third Stage Dispersal Juveniles of Bursaphelenchus xylophilus into Cryptobiosis Through Osmotic Regulation

The present protocol describes a method for inducing the dispersal of third-stage juveniles (pre-dauer juveniles, JⅢ) of Bursaphelenchus xylophilus into cryptobiosis through osmotic regulation of potassium chloride (KCl) ions. This method can provide technical support for research on the stress resistance mechanisms of B.

Acetylcholine Re-Challenge After Intracoronary Nitroglycerine Administration07:59

Acetylcholine Re-Challenge After Intracoronary Nitroglycerine Administration

This protocol presents the acetylcholine rechallenge after nitroglycerine as an add-on procedure to spasm provocation testing. The purpose of this technique is to unmask co-existing microvascular spasm in patients with epicardial spasm and to assess the protective efficacy of nitroglycerine on a per-patient level to guide medical...

An Intestine/Liver Microphysiological System for Drug Pharmacokinetic and Toxicological Assessment08:59

An Intestine/Liver Microphysiological System for Drug Pharmacokinetic and Toxicological Assessment

We exposed a microphysiological system (MPS) with intestine and liver organoids to acetaminophen (APAP). This article describes the methods for organoid production and APAP pharmacokinetic and toxicological property assessments in the MPS. It also describes the tissue functionality analyses necessary to validate the...

Imaging Approaches to Assessments of Toxicological Oxidative Stress Using Genetically-encoded Fluorogenic Sensors

This manuscript describes the use of genetically-encoded fluorogenic reporters in an application of live-cell imaging for the examination of xenobiotic-induced oxidative stress. This experimental approach offers unparalleled spatiotemporal resolution, sensitivity, and specificity while avoiding many of the shortcomings of conventional methods used for the detection of toxicological oxidative...
