Fine-needle aspiration cytological features of Cherubism
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2008-03)
Cherubism is a rare benign, non-neoplastic condition characterized by facial alteration due to symmetrically expansion of bilateral mandibles and maxillas. A fine-needle aspiration of a right cheek mass was performed in a ...
Fine-needle aspiration of breast carcinomas with prominent lymphocytic infiltrate
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2000-07)
Carcinomas of the breast with prominent lymphoplasmacytic background are commonly encountered in cytology. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of different types of carcinomas that share this common feature, ...
Hydrogen peroxide-induced cell and tissue injury: Protective effects of Mn 2+
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1991-08)
Recent evidence indicates that under in vitro conditions, superoxide anion and hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) are unstable in the presence of manganese ion (Mn 2+ ). The current studies snow that in the presence of Mn 2+ , ...
DNA content and marker expression in human glioma explants
(Springer-Verlag, 1987-12)
Immunohistochemical studies of astrocytoma tissue have predominately shown fibronectin (FN) positivity restricted to vessels and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) positivity in the parenchyma. Cultured glioma cell ...
Does Hurthle cell lesion/neoplasm predict malignancy more than follicular lesion/neoplasm on thyroid fine-needle aspiration?
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2006-05)
Thyroid fine-needle aspiration (FNA) is a standard procedure for the clinical triage of thyroid nodules. The diagnosis of an adequately sampled thyroid FNA is generally grouped into three categories: benign, malignant, and ...
Lysophosphatides enhance superoxide responses of stimulated human neutrophils
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1989-04)
Human neutrophils which are pretreated with subtoxic concentrations of a variety of lysophosphatides (lysophosphatidytcholine, lysophosphatidylcholine oleoyl, lysophosphatidylcholine myrioyl, lysophosphatidylcholine stearoyl, ...
Synergism among oxidants, proteinases, phospholipases, microbial hemolysins, cationic proteins, and cytokines
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1992-10)
A striking similarity exists between the pathogenetic properties of group A streptococci and those of activated mammalian professional phagocytes (neutrophils, macrophages). Both types of cells are endowed by the ability ...
Homocysteine Augments Cytokine-Induced Chemokine Expression in Human Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells: Implications for Atherogenesis
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 2001-06)
Hyperhomocysteinemia is an independent risk factor for atherosclerosis and atherothrombosis. While in vitro studies have revealed a number of homocysteine-mediated alterations in the thromboregulatory properties of endothelial ...
Utility of WT-1, p63, MOC31, mesothelin, and cytokeratin (K903 and CK5/6) immunostains in differentiating adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and malignant mesothelioma in effusions
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2008-01)
To distinguish carcinoma, either adenocarcinoma (ADC) or squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), and malignant mesothelioma (MM) in effusion can be a diagnostic challenge based on morphology alone. This study evaluates the utility ...
