H19 is a maternally expressed oncofetal gene, which is expressed at substantial levels in embryonic tissues and various human tumor types, but marginally or not expressed in the corresponding tissue of the adult. Dramatic increase in H19 mRNA was found in hepatocytes following the initiation of their proliferation by hepatectomy. H19 is a target gene for HGF, which also sharply increases after hep...<br/><br/>Vladimir Sorin, Aya Mizrahi, Patricia Ohana, Suhail Ayesh, Tatiana Birman, Abraham Hochberg, Abraham Czerniak (2009) <i>Cancer Therapy </i> 7: 240-244<br/>

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Ovarian cancer ascites fluid (OCAF), contains malignant cells, is usually present in women with an advanced stage disease and currently has no effective therapy. Hence, we developed a new therapy strategy to target the expression of diphtheria toxin gene under the control of H19 regulatory sequences in ovarian tumor cells. H19 RNA is present at high levels in human cancer tis...<br/><br/> Mizrahi, Czerniak, Levy, Amiur, Gallula, Matouk, Abu-Lail, Sorin, Birman, de-Groot, Hochberg, Ohana (2009) <i>J Transl Med</i> 7: 1 <br/>

BACKGROUND: Octanoate (also known as sodium octanoate), a medium-chain fatty acid metabolized in the liver, is a potential substrate for non-invasive breath testing of hepatic mitochondrial beta-oxidation. METHODS: We evaluated the (13)C-octanoate breath test (OBT) for assessing injury in acute hepatitis and two rat models of liver cirrhosis, first testing octanoate absorption (per os or intraperi...<br/><br/> Shalev, Aeed, Sorin, Shahmurov, Didkovsky, Ilan, Avni, Shirin (2009) <i>Dig Dis Sci</i> : <br/>

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Methacetin is thought to be a good substrate for the evaluation of different cytochrome P450 enzymatic systems of liver microsomes because of its rapid metabolism and lack of toxicity in small doses. Recent studies indicate that a methacetin breath test may be a non-invasive alternative for the evaluation of liver function since it correlates well with the severity of liver dam...<br/><br/>Haim Shirin, Hussein Aeed, Tamar Shalev, Vladimir Sorin, Svetlana Stavinski, Mark Shahmurov, Yaron Ilan, Yona Avni (2008) <i>J Gastroenterol Hepatol</i> 23: 11 1762-1768<br/>

A 74-year-old patient who has developed fecal incontinence following continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) is presented. Incontinence was caused by elevated intra-abdominal pressure during peritoneal dialysis, which correlated with the volume of dialysate and position of the patient. The lowest pressure was found in the recumbent position. A change of dialysis schedule to continuous cyc...<br/><br/>Vladimir Sorin, Yishay Ron, Shmuel Smetana, Yona Avni (2003) <i>Am J Kidney Dis</i> 41: 1 E2<br/>

BACKGROUND: Now that the laparoscopic treatment of symptomatic liver cystic disease has proven feasible and safe, it is gaining wide acceptance. However, due to diagnostic pitfalls and a relatively high recurrence rate, further improvements and refinement of the procedure are still needed. We have evaluated the contribution of laparoscopic ultrasound in the diagnosis and management of patients wit...<br/><br/>P Schachter, V Sorin, Y Avni, M Shimonov, V Friedman, A Rosen, A Czerniak (2001) <i>Surg Endosc</i> 15: 4 364-367<br/>

Solitary and multiple hepatic cysts are now more commonly found because of advances in imaging techniques. Most hepatic cysts are asymptomatic, but when they do cause symptoms they require surgical intervention. The advent of laparoscopy and of laparoscopic ultrasonography allow comprehensive evaluation and treatment of the cysts. 12 patients with hepatic cysts were treated laparoscopically. 8 wit...<br/><br/>P Schachter, V Sorin, M Shimonov, A Rosen, A Czerniak (2000) <i>Harefuah</i> <i></i> <i></i> 138: 8 646-9, 710<br/>

Silver plating of nucleoli was used to study the activity of nucleolar organizers (NO) in the cells of one-layer prismatic epithelium of the gastric and duodenal mucosae. The activity of NO was established to be lowered in patients suffering from ulcer disease and in patients with compression stenosis of the celiac trunk, which may point to the impairment of protein synthetic processes in the cell...<br/><br/>V F Sorin, V P Morozov, N N Mamaev, I P Kudrevatykh, V N Shchetinin (1990) <i>Ter Arkh</i> <i></i> <i></i> 62: 2 33-35<br/>

By means of a polarographic method, the decrease in the rate of blood flow in the gastric and duodenal mucosa at the period of exacerbation of ulcer disease, and its normalization at the period of ulcer healing were revealed. The role of the impaired blood supply of the mucosa in ulcer formation is discussed.<br/><br/>L V Potashov, V P Morozov, V F Sorin (1989) <i>Klin Khir</i> <i></i> <i></i> : 8 27-28<br/>
