IgG4‑associated disease is a disorder with an unknown etiology and multi‑organ damage caused by specific inflammatory process, characterized periductal infiltrate mainly CD4+‑T lymphocytes, IgG4+‑plasma cells, storiform fibrosis, atrophy of acinar tissue, which often results in pancreatic duct stenosis. A great number target organs are involved the pathological one primary localization process ...

The object of the study was the comparative assessment of phagocyte activation during initiation and resolution of mammary gland injury induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or buffered salt solution (PBS) on the basis of the CD14 receptor positivity. The experiments were carried out in 15 clinically normal Holstein x Bohemian Red Pied crossbred heifers, aged 14 to 18 months. Noninflammatory and ...

Delay in the onset of lactogenesis has been shown to occur in women who are obese, however the mechanism altered within the mammary gland causing the delay remains unknown. Consumption of high fat diets (HFD) has been previously determined to result decreased litters and litter numbers in rodent models due to a decrease in fertility. We examined the effects of feeding a HFD (60% kcal from fat) ...

Fibroblasts constitute the majority of the stromal cells within bovine mammary gland, yet the functional contributions of these cells to mastitis and fibrosis and the mechanism are poorly understood. In this study, we demonstrate that inflammation-associated fibroblasts (INFs) extracted from bovine mammary glands with clinical mastitis had different expression pattern regarding to several extra...

mastitis, inflammatory disease of mammary glands, can be caused by various microorganisms. many antimicrobial agents have been evaluated to combat the causative agents. development of resistance in pathogens against conventional antibiotics may be high; hence at present study in vitro efficacy of a new fluoroquinolone antibiotic (marbofloxacin) against isolated pathogens from clinical mastitis ...

To investigate the role of nuclear receptor coactivator peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-interacting protein (PRIP) in mammary gland development, we generated a conditional null mutation of PRIP in mammary glands. In PRIP-deficient mammary glands, the elongation of ducts during puberty was not affected, but the numbers of ductal branches were decreased, a condition that persisted long...

Early full-term pregnancy affords lifetime protection against the development of breast cancer. Parityinduced protection can be reproduced in a carcinogeninduced rat mammary carcinoma model, but the molecular mechanisms of this protection against carcinogenic stimuli in rat mammary glands have not been fully characterized. To gain a better understanding of these molecular mechanisms, we used an...

  Fibroadenoma of the vulva is an uncommon lesion. It has been suggested that they originate from vulvar mammary like other glands. A few examples of benign and malignant vulvar tumors arising from such glands have been reported. A 32-year-old woman was referred with a subcutaneous mass at the vulva. The patient treated by simple excisional surgery with adequate peripheral margin. Histologic...
