Purpose: To investigate whether the level of plasminogen activator (PA) activity assayed in gastrointestinal carcinomas and the "morphologically normal tissues" adjacent to them is associated with the degree of tumor ...

This study aimed to investigate collagen (Coll-I, III, IV) and elastin in canine normal prostate and prostate cancer (PC) using Picrosirius red (PSR) and Immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis. Eight normal prostates and 10 ...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the host response of a human and a porcine derived acellular dermal tissue (ADT) implanted in the subcutaneous tissue of a rat model. Two subcutaneous pockets were surgically created ...

Neutron kerma of normal and tumor tissues has been calculated using the tissues´ elemental concentration. A program developed in Mathcad contains the kerma factors of C, H, O, N, Na, Mg, P, S, Cl, K, etc. that are in ...

To evaluate the relationship between carotenoid concentrations in serum and breast tissue, we measured serum carotenoid concentrations and endogenous carotenoid levels in breast adipose tissue of women with benign breast ...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of raloxifene oil normal breast tissue. A randomized, doubleblind study was carried out in 30 ovulatory, premenopausal women of 18-40 years of age, who had been ...

Cell-to-cell communication through gap junctions exists in most animal cells and is essential for many important biological processes including rapid transmission of electric signals to coordinate contraction of cardiac ...

In this work total reflection X-ray fluorescence spectrometry has been employed to determine trace element concentrations in different human breast tissues (normal, normal adjacent, benign and malignant). A multivariate ...
