Microvessel density in follicular cysts, keratocystic odontogenic tumours and ameloblastomas.
PURPOSE Multicystic ameloblastoma is a benign epithelial odontogenic tumor that exhibits a more aggressive behavior than follicular cyst and keratocystic odontogenic tumor (KCOT). The aim of this study was to perform an immunohistochemical evaluation of the mean microvessel density (MVD) effect on clinical behavior of odontogenic lesions and to determine whether peritumoral or intratumoral MVD ...
متن کاملFrequent intra-tumoural heterogeneity of promoter hypermethylation in malignant melanoma.
To investigate intra-tumoural coexistence and heterogeneity of aberrant promoter hypermethylation of different tumour suppressor genes in melanoma, we analyzed the intra-tumoural distribution of promoter methylation of RASSF1A, p16, DAPK, MGMT, and Rb in 339 assays of 34 tumours (15 melanoma primaries, 19 metastases) by methylation-specific PCR, correlation to histopathology and RASSF1A express...
متن کاملIntra-ocular Tumours.
IN practice, intra-ocular tumours are vaguely classified as gliomata if they originate in the retina, or as melanomata if they have originated in the choroid and contain brown pigment that does not give the iron reaction. Those attempting greater precision place most of the gliomata in the more restricted group of retinoblastomata. The problem, however, is not so simple, for on closer examinati...
متن کاملIncreasing lymphatic microvessel density in primary pterygia.
OBJECTIVE To examine lymphatic microvessel density (LMVD) in primary pterygia. METHODS We included tissue samples from 88 excised primary (including 34 grade 1, 28 grade 2, and 26 grade 3) pterygia and from 7 nasal epibulbar conjunctivae segments used as control samples. Sections from each pterygium were immunostained with CD31 and lymphatic vessel endothelial hyaluronan receptor 1 (LYVE-1) m...
متن کاملMultidrug resistance in solid tumours
Introduction: Most cancers show heterogeneity of response to chemotherapy. This may be due in part to the differential expression of drug resistance proteins and the molecular targets of the drugs concerned. Methods: An ex vivo ATP-based Tumour Chemosensitivity Assay (ATP-TCA), immunohistochemistry and quantitative RT-PCR have been used to assess the chemosensitivity and resistance of a variety...
