TL;DR: The results show that ghrelin directly affects bone formation, and gh Relin increased BMD in rats.

TL;DR: The aims of this publication include the determination of current standard care practices for pregnant women in Japan, the widespread use ofstandard care practices, the enhancement of safety in obstetrical practice, the reduction in burdens associated with medico‐legal and medico-economical problems, and a better understanding between pregnant women and maternity‐service providers.

TL;DR: It is shown for the first time that the oxidative stress caused specific morphological changes of mitochondria, excess formation of superoxide, reduction of ATP, and transcriptional alterations of genes associated with heart failure in respect to cardiac contractility played a pivotal role in the development and progression of heart failure.

TL;DR: Three new clonal strains from adult rat anterior pituitaries were established by using the single cell-plating feeder layer method and reveal that the S-100 protein-producing cell is an independent cell type of the anterior pituitsary.

TL;DR: Because the cells proved to produce specific hepatic proteins and to start functions specific for hepatocytes, such as storing glycogen and urea production, it may be state that the mesenchymal cell cultures from wisdom and deciduous tooth pulp acquired morphologic and functional characteristics of hepatocytes.
