Density of mast-cells and Microvessels Density in head and neck cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Background and Aim: Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) is the second most common skin cancer. Mast cells may play a role in tumor progression and metastasis by increasing angiogenesis. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of mast cells by increasing angiogenesis in invasion of head and neck cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional stud...
متن کاملThe mouse footpad model.
It may be hard, now that Mycobacterium leprae is just another entry in the large catalogue of pathogens whose DNA sequence is known and leprosy is just another treatable bacterial disease, to understand the excitement generated by the mouse footpad model when it was introduced. It is, after all, not obviously exciting: 10,000 bacilli are injected into the hind footpad of a normal mouse. This is...
متن کاملDensity of epidermal Langerhans cells in psoriasis
Immunocytochemical techniques using antibodies to the specific T6 and Ia (Major Histocompability Complex, class 11, human HLA-Dr) antigens were used to determine the densities of epidermal Langerhans cells (LC) in psoriasis patients treated with the aromatic retinoid RO 10-9359. Fourteen patients were treated with the aromatic retinoid and were skin biopsied before, during and after therapy. Tw...
متن کاملLangerhans Cells in Skin Lesions of Leprosy
Background: Langerhans cells are important in the pathogenesis of leprosy. A recent study reported that these cells were almost absent in the epidermis overlying lepromatous lesions. Objective: To investigate a possible relationship between the number of Langerhans cells and the histopathologic spectrum of lesions in patients with leprosy. Methods: An immunohistochemical staining for S100 prot...
متن کاملCutaneous Langerhans cell histiocytosis.
A 5 year old boy presented with papules and nodules on face, chest and upper extremities and seborrhea of scalp for 4 years. Some old healed scars were also present. Lesions were pruritic to begin with but were non-itchy. Examination revealed erythematous plaques and nodules on face and upper limbs. Lesions were more marked on forehead, cheek (Fig. 1) and dorsum of hands. There were contracture...
