Extracellular accumulation of amyloid-beta (Aβ) plaques is one the major pathological hallmarks Alzheimer's disease (AD), and target only FDA-approved disease-modifying treatment for AD. Accordingly, use transgenic mouse models that overexpress amyloid precursor protein thereby accumulate cerebral Aβ are widely used to model human AD in mice. Therefore, immunoassays, including enzyme-linked imm...

The granular cell tumor of the breast is a rare and usually benign disease that appears clinically radiologically like malign tumor. We report case GCT in woman 41 years, who present suspect later. anatomopathological examination showed proliferation large tumorectomy was realized. immunostaining with PS100 NSE protein confirm nature

The adult rat hippocampus was investigated by light microscopic immunocytochemistry for (Na+ + K+)-ATPase. In the CA1, CA2 and CA3 hippocampal regions, dense immunostaining for (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, exhibiting a punctate appearance, was demonstrated along the soma plasmalemma of hippocampal pyramidal cells in the stratum pyramidale, thus outlining these cells distinctly, and along dendrites extend...

Objective(s) Definite diagnosis of Hirschsprung’s disease (HD) is based on histopathological study, but there are limitations associated with standard histology and histochemistry in this regard. The aim of this study was to investigate calretinin immunostaining patterns in both ganglionic and aganglionic HD intestinal specimens and to compare them with control specimens. Materials and Method...

PURPOSE To compare immunostaining quantification obtained by a digital computer-assisted method with the well-established semiquantitative analysis. METHODS Cytoplasmic staining of galectin-3 was obtained by standard immunohistochemical reactions in 25 cases of well-differentiated thyroid carcinoma. The expression index that associates the conventional area fraction of labeled cells with the ...

Subunit proteins that comprise functional AMPA receptors were localized by immunocytochemical methods in the adult macaque primary visual cortex (V1). GluR1, GluR2/3/4c, and GluR4 immunoreactivity consisted of rich plexuses of punctate profiles scattered throughout the neuropil, in radial arrays, and outlining the membrane of somata and proximal dendrites. Cytoplasmic immunoreactivity was limit...

The objective was to compare the use of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), virus culture, and immunostaining of alveolar cells used alone and in combination as diagnostic methods for the rapid diagnosis of cytomegalovirus (CMV) pneumonia in marrow transplant recipients. Seventy-five marrow transplant recipients with clinical and radiological evidence of pneumonitis were used as subjects. Bron...

INTRODUCTION Ovarian cancer has a high mortality and delayed diagnosis. Inflammation is a risk factor for ovarian cancer, and the inflammatory response is involved in almost all stages of tumor development. Immunohistochemical staining in stroma and epithelium of a panel of cytokines in benign and malignant ovarian neoplasm was evaluated. In addition, immunostaining was related to prognostic fa...
