Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

New Hepatocytes Study Findings Recently Were Reported by a Researcher at National Institute of Animal Science (Adipose Tissue-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Extend the Lifespan and Enhance Liver Function in Hepatocyte Organoids)
2023 NOV 02 (NewsRx) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at NewsRx Life Science Daily -- Data detailed on hepatocytes have been presented. According
Article Description
In this study, we generated hepatocyte organoids (HOs) using frozen-thawed primary hepatocytes (PHs) within a three-dimensional (3D) Matrigel dome culture in a porcine model. Previously studied hepatocyte organoid analogs, spheroids, or hepatocyte aggregates created using PHs in 3D culture systems have limitations in their in vitro lifespans. By co-culturing adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (A-MSCs) with HOs within a 3D Matrigel dome culture, we achieved a 3.5-fold increase in the in vitro lifespan and enhanced liver function compared to a conventional two-dimensional (2D) monolayer culture, i.e., more than twice that of the HO group cultured alone, reaching up to 126 d. Although PHs were used to generate HOs, we identified markers associated with cholangiocyte organoids such as cytokeratin 19 and epithelial cellular adhesion molecule (EPCAM). Co-culturing A-MSCs with HOs increased the secretion of albumin and urea and glucose consumption compared to HOs cultured alone. After more than 100 d, we observed the upregulation of tumor protein P53 (TP53)-P21 and downregulation of EPCAM, albumin (ALB), and cytochrome P450 family 3 subfamily A member 29 (CYP3A29). Therefore, HOs with function and longevity improved through co-culturing with A-MSCs can be used to create large-scale human hepatotoxicity testing models and precise livestock nutrition assessment tools.
