A method is described for isolating Clara cells from the mouse lung that does not require the technique of elutriation. Mouse lungs totally perfused of blood are instilled with crystalline trypsin (0.25%) and incubated for the optimum time of 15 min. The lung tissue is chopped, mechanically agitated, and sequentially filtered to obtain a primary digest of 3 to 5 x 10(6) cells. Clara cells, iden...

Construction of a step-scheme (S-scheme) heterojunction photocatalyst is currently under investigation as it known to facilitate decrease in the e–/h+ recombination rate and preserves strong redox ability. This research work has reported on use microwave irradiation combined with wet impregnation synthesis FeVO4/Bi4O5Br2 heterojunctions at different weight percentages (%wt) FeVO4 (0.5%, 1%, 3% ...

All-trans-retinoic acid (RA) treatment of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) cases expressing the t(15;17) product, PML/RARalpha, is a successful example of differentiation therapy. Uncovering RA target genes is of considerable interest in APL. This study comprehensively examines in APL cells transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation of the novel candidate RA target gene, G0S2, the G0...

in medicine, patent blue violet (pbv) is utilized for staining lymphatic vessels in sentinel lymph node (sln) surgery. moreover, pbv (also called e131 ) is used as food additive. we report on a 51-year-old non-atopic female with early breast cancer, who was scheduled for sln excision and experienced an intra-operative anaphylactic reaction. in diagnostics the skin prick test (spt) was positive ...

statement of problem: early diagnoses of oral malignancies and pre-malignancies have direct effect in the outcome of these lesions. therefore the techniques for early diagnosis have been considered as useful method in practice. purpose: the aim of this study was to evaluate the reliability of oratest and generic toluidine blue (gtb) in the detection of oral malignancy and premalignancy. materia...

blue nevi are uncommon, asymptomatic lesions of the uterine cervix. these lesions are not often detected clinically or on colposcopy. careful histopathological examination is required. the nevus cells are said to originate from the immature melanoblasts of the neural crest. these lesions need to be differentiated from malignant melanoma and melanosis of the cervix. we present here a case report...
