Fixed myocardial defects in both stress and rest images, could be artifactual as a result of soft tissue attenuation. To increase specificity and identify the false positive results, we used gated technique to evaluate the wall motion and wall thickening as an index to differentiate real ischemic lesions from artifactual defects. 93 patients were studied. In 46 patients (48.8%) fixed perf...

INTRODUCTION Conventional formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue provides superior cellular morphology and long-term storage. Problems with formalin fixation comprise delay of fixation and variations in the duration of fixation. Microwave assisted tissue fixation removes the use of noxious and potentially toxic formalin that decreases the turnaround time and creates a personnel friendly workf...

Background & Aims: There are several reports about anti-oxidant effects of garlic in the literature. In this study the effect of garlic alcoholic-water extract on the treatment of lead-induced toxicity in kidney of neonatal rat and the protective effect of garlic alcoholic water extract on body and kidney weight and also kidney tissue were investigated. Method: Neonatal rats were divided in...

AIMS To isolate RNA and DNA simultaneously from formalin fixed paraffin wax embedded tissue to assess the clonality of enteropathy associated T cell lymphomas and to analyse it in detail by a non-radioactive method of T cell receptor complementarity determining region 3 (CDR3) spectratyping. METHODS DNA and RNA were isolated simultaneously from formalin fixed paraffin wax embedded tissue bloc...

We present a new concept, termed tissue lithography (TL), and its implementation which enables retrospective studies on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue sections. Tissue lithography uses a microfluidic probe to remove microscale areas of the paraffin layer on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded biopsy samples. Current practices in sample utilization for research and diagnostics require comp...

Background: Tuberculosis has been detected in some extra pulmonary ecological niches. Although extra pulmonary tuberculosis (EPTB) is less frequent than Pulmonary Tuberculosis (PTB), its incidence has increased worldwide. The aim of this study was to investigate the presence of EPTB and MDR-EXPT in Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue blocks among different samples in Kerma...

INTRODUCTION Proteomic profiling of diseased and normal tissue by mass spectrometry (MS) is at an early stage, yet it promises to decipher proteomic complexities of the tissue microenvironment and to deliver biomarker information with appropriate pathologic and histologic relevance. Mass spectrometric profiling of the complex cellular proteome obtained from diseased tissue has previously been d...

ARID1A is a known suppressor of tumour formation and the Human Protein Atlas antibody HPA005456 has been demonstrated in previous literature to stain tumour tissue by immunohistochemistry (IHC) in formalin-fixed paraffin embedded human tissue and human cell lines. This article details the validation of this antibody for immunohistochemistry of formalin-fixed paraffin embedded murine tissue usin...

Abstract A previous bone remodelling model was presented elsewhere [30], and in the present paper, same tested with new conditions; an interaction between tissue, substitute material a dental implant considered. The assumed to be dead which does not synthesizes neither absorbs it considered, as well, resolvable. moving border tissue studied. moved newly synthesised took over material. After num...
