Immunochemistry is now an established ancillary technique in lung cancer diagnosis. Not only does it help in supporting the morphological diagnosis of malignancy, but its role now extends to the determination of cell lineage, ascertaining the primary site of tumour origin and contributing to decisions on prognosis and treatment. Early detection and confirmation of lung cancer facilitate early t...

This very brief volume reviews current information about certain biochemical and genetic aspects of mitochondria. The authors concentrate their attention on mitochondria replication, and the genetic specification of mitochondria components. This field is developing rapidly and in most areas the final answers are not available; therefore, new discoveries about the topology of mitochondria DNA an...

Amphiregulin is a recently described member of the epidermal growth factor family. Primary breast cancers were assessed for expression of amphiregulin by immunochemistry (111 cases), Northern, and/or dot blots (68 cases). Epidermal growth factor and estrogen receptors were measured in all cases. p53 and erbB-2 expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry for most cases. There was no associat...

In 1923, a young chemist-turned-microbiologist and his mentor made the startling discovery that bacterial sugars could be targeted by the immune system--a groundbreaking finding that helped launch the field of immunochemistry.
