The aim of this work was to evaluate the performance and the liver structure health of Nile tilapia hormonally masculinized or nonmasculinized, reared in cages with two protein levels. Two groups of Nile tilapia of Thai lineage (total 2,400), with 127 g initial average weight, were distributed in a completely randomized design with four treatments, in a 2x2 factorial arrangement, corresponding to the groups of hormonally masculinized or nonmasculinized fish, and to diet protein level of 28 or 32% of crude protein, with three replicates. After 115 days feeding, there was no interaction between the factors for final weight, weight gain, feed conversion rate, final length and survival. There was no difference between hormonally masculinized and nonmasculinized fish for final weight, weight gain, and survival, which shows the possibility of their production in cages, without the need of hormonal masculinization. Crude protein at 32% in the diet enables a better performance for both groups. Histological changes in the liver - such as increased cell volume, disruption of the cord-like arrangements, and increase of vesicles in the hepatocytes - are found in hormonally masculinized fish, and are more pronounced in fish fed 32% crude protein in the diet.

Cholangiohepatitis is a common hepatic disorder in cats that is second only to hepatic lipidosis in frequency. The cholangitis-cholangiohepatitis complex is known as the diseases that involve the biliar tract inflammation and may extend to the liver. The classification of the cholangiohepatitis is still controversial, in this present study the following classification was used: Acute Cholangiohepatitis, Chronic Cholangiohepatitis, Lymphocitic Cholangitis. The cholangiohepatitis may be associated with pancreatitis and inflammatory bowel disease, this association is known as feline triaditis. The diagnosis is based on the clinical signs, alterations in laboratory exams and ultrasonography alterations, but the definitive diagnosis is only possible through liver biopsy. The treatment for each type of cholangiohepatitis differs, hence the importance of the right diagnosis. This study aimed to do a review over the ethiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis and treatment for this disease

A tripanossomíase americana – Doença de Chagas – é uma parasitose típica de países tropicais e subdesenvolvidos. Devido a grande abrangência da doença, somada a dificuldade encontrada pelos pacientes para adquirir os medicamentos, Chung et al. (1996) sintetizaram o pró-fármaco hidroximetilnitrofural (NFOH). Esse derivado do nitrofural (NF), em estudos preliminares, apresentou resultados significativamente superiores aos observados com benznidazol e nitrofural, disponíveis para a terapia convencional. O presente estudo teve como objetivo a avaliação preliminar do potencial de hepatotoxicidade e cardiotoxicidade do NFOH quando administrado a coelhos albinos. O protocolo experimental se deu através da avaliação da atividade sérica dos biomarcadores hepáticos AST, ALT, GGT e bilirrubina, e do cardíaco CK-MB. Os animais foram divididos em três grupos (n=5), que receberam NFOH, NF e o veículo DMSO duas vezes ao dia, durante 24 dias. Para realização das análises foram coletadas amostras de sangue a cada seis dias. Os testes foram realizados através de kits bioquímicos para diagnóstico (Labtest®). Os níveis de AST e ALT dos grupos expostos aos fármacos apresentaram significativa diminuição com relação ao grupo controle, a bilirrubina não apresentou alterações significativas, e a atividade sérica da GGT apresentou-se elevada tanto nos grupos NFOH e NF quanto no grupo controle. Foi observada alta mortalidade entre os animais expostos ao NF e os valores de CK-MB foram significativamente superiores aos valores de referência descritos em literatura, sugerindo dano cardíaco. Tendo como base tais resultados, concluímos que o pró-fármaco não originou prejuízos relacionados ao tecido hepático, porém com relação à cardiotoxicidade há necessidade de estudos posteriores.

The present study aimed to analyze the effects of exercise performed at aerobic/anaerobic transition on non-alcoholic hepatic steatosis (NAHS) markers in diabetic rats. Adult (60 days) male Wistar rats were divided into 4 groups: sedentary control (SC), trained control (TC), sedentary diabetic (i.v. alloxan injection) (SD) and trained diabetic (TD). At the beginning of the experiment, all the animals were submitted to maximal lactate steady state test (MLSS) in order to identify the aerobic/anaerobic metabolic transition during swimming exercise. The trained groups were submitted to swimming, supporting overloads (% of body weight – b.w.) equivalent to MLSS intensity, 1h/day, 5 days/week, during 8 weeks. We analyzed: serum ALT, AST, albumin, glucose and free fat acids (FFA), body weight and total lipid concentrations in the liver. The diabetic groups showed higher (ANOVA two-way, p<0.05) serum glucose (SD=200% and TD= 150%) and weight loss (SD= 15.0% and TD= 8.5%) compared to controls and the SD showed higher glucose concentration and weight loss when compared to TD. The work load (% b.w.) equivalent to the MLSS was lower in TD (4.7%) than in TC (5.6%) group. The NAHS markers (U/L) did not show... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)

The liver has many biological functions that contribute to the proper functioning of the organism. Liver failure is the loss of these functions, leading to the appearance of complications that worsen the general clinical condition of the patient. This review shows the main complications of liver failure, explaining their pathogenesis and the possible forms of treatment in an attempt to improve the quality of life of patients during treatment of the disease that causes liver failure

Feline hepatic lipidosis or fatty liver disease is a cholestatic syndrome that affects domestic cats and is characterized by excess fat accumulation in the liver of cats. Symptoms commonly seen with this syndrome are anorexia, weight loss, lethargy, vomiting, jaundice, and occasionally behavioral or neurologic signs such as excessive drooling, blindness, coma, and seizures. The diagnosis is based on the patient history, clinical examination, complementary examination, and the definitive diagnosis is obtained by cytology and/or histopathology of hepatic tissue. In serum biochemistry, the main findings include increased serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate amino transferase (AST) and bilirubin. The gamma glutamyl transferase (GGT) is normal or slightly increased. The cornerstone of therapy is aggressive feeding to supply the cat full caloric requirements. Without aggressive nutritional support and intensive monitoring the fatty liver disease can be fatal
