Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is associated with benign and malignant tumors, including lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) and angiomyolipoma (AML). We herein describe the TSC case of a 50-year-old woman having a papillary serous carcinoma of the peritoneum (PSCP), LAM, and AML. On microscopic examination, the PSCP cells showed a cuboidal to columnar shape, proliferated into the papillae, and in...

Papillary poroid hidradenoma is a very rare entity which belongs to poroid neoplasms, which represents 10% of sudoriferous tumours. It can be easily misdiagnosed as a malignant neoplasm. A 34-years-old male presented with an asymptomatic mass over the right chest wall, below the nipple, of 18 months duration. Clinical examination revealed tense cystic swelling which revealed hypoechoic and soli...

We present an in depth breakdown of the lipid headgroup composition epithelial membranes through a systematic literature review, and rationalise variation as well organisation across membrane composition.

Monoclonal antibody F30 was produced by the fusion of murine myeloma cell line P3-X63-Ag8-653 with spleen cells from a BALB/C mouse immunized with established human pancreatic cancer cell line (PK-1) and the reaction specificity was analyzed. The antigen recognized by monoclonal antibody F30 was different from HLA-associated antigen, beta 2-microglobulin, fetal bovine serum components, ferritin...

Interpretation of primary monolayer culture of organs and tissues with different epithelial cell types demands well-defined criteria for distinguishing between such cells. Epithelial components in breast carcinomas comprise, in addition to carcinoma epithelial cells (CEP), at least two epithelial cell types organized in mammary ductules of normal appearance as an inner layer of luminal epitheli...

introduction: the major histocompatibility complex (mhc) is a group of cell surface proteins that are essential for recognizing foreign molecules in human and other mammals. the physiologic function of mhc molecules is the presentation of peptides to t cells. in this study, we evaluated the purification of a class ii mhc molecule (hla-dr) from a human burkitt′s lymphoma cell line; daudi. materi...

The need for antibody proteins is growing both diagnosis and therapy. In this work, we combine two strategies based on single nanopore sensing multipore membrane to separate, detect identify antibodies. This proof of concept was done the anti-CD44. a first step, with bullet shape were designed using track-etching polymer film functionalized, PEG spacer CD44 antigen. detection anti-CD44 evidence...

Interpretation of primary monolayer culture of organs and tissues with different epithelial cell types demands well-defined criteria for distin guishing between such cells. Epithelial components in breast carcinomas comprise, in addition to carcinoma epithelial cells (CEP), at least two epithelial cell types organized in mammary ductules of normal appearance as an inner layer of luminal epithel...

Transepithelial transport of antigens and pathogens across the epithelial barrier by M cells may be a prerequisite for induction of mucosal immunity in the intestine. Efficient transport of antigens and pathogens requires adherence to M cell apical surfaces. Coupling of antigen-containing particles to the pentameric binding subunit of cholera toxin (CTB) has been proposed as a means for increas...
