The goal of this chapter is to highlight methods used to demonstrate in vivo changes in astrocyte expression at the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Loss of BBB integrity is seen in many acute and chronic disease conditions. However, despite the importance

A series of twelve breast milk samples were analysed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) operated in selected ion monitoring mode for 3-chloropropane-1,2-diol (3-MCPD). Whilst none of the samples contained 3-MCPD above the limit of detection of 3 microg kg(-1) milk

3-chloro-1, 2-propanediol (3-MCPD) is a well-known contaminant that was produced in the thermal processing of food. Dietary intake represents the greatest source of exposure to 3-MCPD. Autophagy is an important catabolic pathway that plays an important role in liver physiological

We have previously shown that systemic administration of S(+)3-chloropropanediol (3-CPD) produces a morphological loss of astrocytes in specific nuclei of the rodent brain that precedes loss of both neurones and endothelial tight junctions. Here, we have evaluated the differential susceptibility

As one of the chlorinated antifertility compounds, alpha-chlorohydrin (ACH) can inhibit glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (G3PDH) activity in epididymal sperm and affect sperm energy metabolism, maturation and fertilization, eventually leading to male infertility. Further studies demonstrated that the inhibitory effect of ACH
