the affection of the glands in the neck, the adenoid tissue of the soft palate, tonsils and pharynx was greatly enlarged. The right tonsil projected as a rounded mass as far as the middle of the tliroa displacing the normal uvula forwards. The left tonsil, though enlarged, was not affected to the same extent. The tonsil and soft palate were elastic to palpation, and the mucous membrane covering...

CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE Tumor cells in Hodgkins disease (HD) express cell proliferation markers that are evaluated according to the oncogenes involved or the expression of their proteins. Correlations between the protein expression grade and clinical data are now important for disease prognosis.

BACKGROUND Non-Hodgkins lymphoma (NHL) is a heterogeneous group of malignancies, originating in the lymphatic organs, whose incidence is increasing in developed as well as developing countries. Epidemiological evidence suggests that aspirin may reduce the incidence and mortality of several cancers. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the potential relationship between using aspirin...

Alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT) or serine protease inhibitor A1 (SERPINA1) is an important serine protease inhibitor in humans. The main physiological role of AAT is to inhibit neutrophil elastase (NE) released from triggered neutrophils, with an additional lesser role in the defense against damage inflicted by other serine proteases, such as cathepsin G and proteinase 3. Although there is a reported...
