Impaired hematopoiesis is a serious complication after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Bone marrow aplasia and peripheral cytopenias arise from primary secondary graft failure or poor function. Chimerism analysis useful to discriminate these conditions. By determining the pathogenesis of impaired hematopoiesis, timely appropriate treatment can be performed. Hemat...

The protective effects of Rheum tanguticum polysaccharide 1 (RTP1), which is extracted from the Chinese traditional medicine Rheum tanguticum, on radiation-induced intestinal mucosal injury was investigated. Rat intestinal crypt epithelial cells (IEC-6 cells) and Sprague-Dawley rats were each divided into control, irradiated and RTP1-pretreated irradiated groups. After irradiation, cell surviva...

Cervical dysplasia and invasive cervical cancer can be diagnosed by detection of epithelial cell abnormality (ECA) in a cervical scrapping from a clinically suspicious women by means of cervical cytology study popularly known as pap test. Aim and objective of the present study to different cervical lesion with the help of pap smear and categorize them according to the Bethesda system. The sampl...

background & objectives: odontogenic cysts are among the most frequent destructive lesions of jaws which their pathogenesis and growth mechanism are not cleared. with respect to different roles of mast cells, they may play a role in the pathogenesis and growth of odontogenic cysts. the aim of present study was to evaluate mast cells in the most common odontogenic cyst. methods: thirty  para...

Spontaneous canine head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) represents an excellent model of human HNSCC but is greatly understudied. To better understand and utilize this valuable resource, we performed a pilot study that represents its first genome-wide characterization by investigating 12 canine HNSCC cases, of which 9 are oral, via high density array comparative genomic hybridization a...

This study, it was aimed to investigate the effect of Vitamin E on testicular tissue and antioxidant levels in rats exposed Bisphenol A. It determined that general histological appearances were similar control sham groups, there a decrease tubule diameter BPA-treated group, but seminiferous tubular epithelial layer increased. Epithelial shedding subbasal vacuoles detected some tubules vitamin g...

Using microscale topographic patterns to guide fibroblasts and epithelial cells form topological defects in monolayers, we examine behaviors dependent on cell type as well charge.

Background  To report normal variations of the limbal structures using in vivo laser scanning confocal microscopy. Methods: This was a retrospective study of fourteen eyes from 11 healthy individuals. Confocal imaging of cornea and limbus was performed using Heidelberg Retina Tomograph III Rostock Corneal Module. Results: The typical structure of the palisades of Vogt (POV) was detected ...
