Conjunctival cytology assessment in dogs and cats. Sampling, diagnostic techniques and findings
(2018)The conjunctiva provides a physical and physiological barrier against microorganisms and foreign bodies and also contributes to the ocular immunological defense. It constitutes a straightforward and accessible tissue for ... -
Helicobacter pylori infection and gastric cancer biology: tempering a double-edged sword
(2019)Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection affects an estimated 4.4 billion people globally. Moreover, H. pylori presents the most significant risk factor for gastric cancer and low-grade mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue ... -
Immunohistochemicall expression of the p53, p21/Waf-1, Rb, p16 and Ki67 proteins in multiple myeloma
(2000)The aim of this study was to investigate the immunohistochemical expression of the proteins p53, Waf-l/p21, Rb, p16 and Ki67 in 38 cases of multiple myelomas (MM) and 4 cases of solitary extramedullary plasmacytomas in ... -
Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) expression in lung cancer
(2007)Background: The expression of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) by tumor cells has been considered as a major tumor immune escape mechanism. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of IDO in lung cancer ... -
The labdane diterpene sclareol (labd-14-ene-8, 13-diol) induces apoptosis in human tumor cell lines and suppression of tumor growth in vivo via a p53-independent mechanism of action
(2011)The labdane diterpene sclareol has demonstrated significant cytotoxicity against human tumor cell lines and human colon cancer xenografts. Therefore, there is need to elucidate the mode of action of this compound as very ... -
Nuclear localization of cytokeratin 8 and the O-linked N -acetylglucosamine-containing Epitope H in epithelial cells of infiltrating ductal breast carcinomas: A combination of immunogold and EDTA regressive staining methods
(2006)In a previous study, the authors have shown cytokeratin 8 (CK8) and epitope H ultrastructural localization in breast cancer cell nuclei. Epitope H contains an O-linked N -acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) residue in a specific ... -
Patient with prostatic adenocarcinoma with plasmacytoid features and an aberrant immunohistochemical phenotype diagnosed by biopsy and a mini-review of plasmacytoid features in the genitourinary system: A case report
(2022)Prostate cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed malignancies in men. Most of these tumors are adenocarcinomas. Plasmacytoid is a rare variant of adenocarcinoma described by previous studies in the genitourinary system ... -
The role of MiRNA-21 in gliomas: Hope for a novel therapeutic intervention?
(2020)Gliomas are the most common primary brain tumors in adults. They are generally very resistant to treatment and are therefore associated with negative outcomes. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, non-coding RNA molecules that ... -
Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC) in Brown meagre (Sciaena umbra Linnaeus, 1758), a new candidate species for aquaculture in Mediterranean
(2020)A case of epithelial tissue tumors on the body of two adult Brown meagres (Sciaena umbra Linnaeus, 1758) is reported. Brown Meagre population of 20.000 was imported to sea cages on September of 2003 at 3g, to check the ... -
Transferrin receptor-1 and 2 expression in chronic lymphocytic leukemia
(2006)Transferrin receptor (TfR)-1 and 2 mRNA and CD71 (TfR1) expression was analyzed in 118 CLL patients. Ninety-five out of 109 analyzed cases expressed CD71, mostly at a high level; 60% of CD71 (+) cases were IGH-mutated. All ...
