Reactive mesothelial proliferation: a necropsy study.
To establish a histological standard against which surgical biopsy material could be compared, the degree of mesothelial proliferation was studied in 100 unselected necropsies. A minor degree of mesothelial hyperplasia was identified in 10 cases, usually close to areas of fibrous adhesions. Pleural plaques were present in 33 patients but there was no evidence of associated mesothelial prolifera...

متن کاملLung diseases at necropsy in African children dying from respiratory illnesses: a descriptive necropsy study.

We undertook a study of children who died from respiratory diseases at University Teaching Hospital, Lusaka, Zambia. METHODS 137 boys (93 HIV-1-positive, 44 HIV-1-negative], and 127 girls (87 HIV-1-positive, 40 HIV-1-negative) aged b...
متن کاملHydralazine inhibits human peritoneal mesothelial cell proliferation and collagen synthesis.
The integrity of the mesothelial layer is essential for both defence and solute transport in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). The human peritoneal mesothelial cell (HPMC) culture has been shown to be a very useful tool to study the peritoneal mesothelial stem cell behaviour. We investigated whether hydralazine, an antihypertensive agent frequently used, might affect HPMC growth...
