cellulaire de gliome C6, viabilité, prolifération, test de rézazurine. (ref CCL-107). Rat C6 glioma cells were grown in 200 mL cell culture flasks and maintained in a 3.5% CO2 incubator (ico50 Memmert GmbH Germany) at 37°C. The compounds were administered in doses of 1 μ M and 10 μ M. The viability was evaluated by MTT test and proliferation by resazurin one. Results. The study results show that the compounds have selective action on in vitro viability and proliferation of C6 glioma cells that depends on the chemical structure and concentration. Conclusions. Phenyl derivatives showed a more promising action on C6 glioma cells viability and proliferation compared with benzothiazole and alyl thiosemicarbazones. Also, a lower concentration (1 μ M) was more efficient than the higher one (10 μ M).

, The domestication of dogs by humans began more than 15,000 years ago, and since then, they have been closely tied to human activities, such as guarding, hunting, and herding 1 . In addition to being a social companion and partner in work, dogs have entered homes and spent more time with humans. Hence, their relationship was strengthened over time in many cultures 2 . Humans gained many benefits from dogs’ domestication. However, scientific research indicates that dogs can transmit many pathogens (including bacteria, viruses, parasites, and fungi) 3,4 . Othman and Abuseir counted more than 60 dangerous zoonotic diseases re-lated to dogs, especially echinococcosis, rabies, and leishmaniasis 5 . Many peer-reviewed articles have reported on the involvement of dogs in disease transmission. For example, Kocon et al. indicate that dogs contributed to spreading ticks (Acari: Ixodida ) in both recreational and urban areas in Southern Poland 3 .

Prendre des décisions éthiques en matière de santé nécessite souvent une expérience et une sagesse professionnelles accumulées qui sont en interaction simultanée avec les principes éthiques connus de la profession médicale. Cet article de synthèse vise à expliquer comment les consultations d’éthique clinique influencent la prise de décision dans la pratique des soins de santé. Les consultations en éthique clinique soutiennent le processus de prise de décision éthique et le rôle du consultant en éthique clinique en tant que participant est d’appliquer une approche de facilitation largement acceptée lorsqu’il traite un cas éthique. Des recommandations pourraient être faites à la demande des parties prenantes.
