Deskripsi

Daisuke Anegawa et al. investigated the mechanisms responsible for cold resistance in the Syrian hamster’s hepatocytes, which exhibited remarkable resistance to prolonged cold culture. Their results suggest that hepatocytes exhibit diet-dependent resistance to cold, which is linked to the retention of α-tocopherol in the liver.
