Apoptosis is an important mechanism of cell demise in multicellular organisms and Cl(-) transport has an important role in the progression of the apoptotic volume decrease (AVD). DIDS (4,4′-Diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2′-disulfonate) is one of the most commonly used Cl(-) transport inhibitors that eliminates or reduces different apoptotic hallmarks such as AVD, caspase-3 activity and DNA fragmentation. DIDS …

Immunohistochemical assessment of PTEN in vulvar cancer: best practices for tissue staining, evaluation, and clinical association.

BACKGROUND Pten encodes a well-characterized protein that is important in several cancers due to its tumor suppressor function. Yet, the detection and evaluation of PTEN by immunohistochemistry (IHC) for clinical practice have not been standardized. Thus, in this study, we performed a literature review of protocols for PTEN assessment by IHC and the possible differences …

Unusual Manifestations of Vulval Paget Disease

Vulval extramammary Paget disease (vEMPD) is an uncommon epithelial malignancy that may arise within the vulva (primary vEMPD) or represent vulval skin involvement by a noncutaneous carcinoma (secondary vEMPD). Primary vEMPD is most often an in situ carcinoma arising within the epidermis but may be associated with dermal invasion (invasive vEMPD) or represent intraepidermal spread …

Neural Differentiation of Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells-An in vitro Approach to Profile DNA Methylation of Reprogramming Factor Sox2-SRR2

Sox2 is one of the core transcription factors maintaining the embryonic stem cells (ES) pluripotency and, also indispensable for cellular reprogramming. However, limited data is available about the DNA methylation of pluripotency genes during lineage-specific differentiations. This study investigated the DNA methylation of Sox2 regulatory region 2 (SRR2) during directed differentiation of mouse ES into …

Flesh color (FC), skin color (SC), and anthocyanin content (AC) are three important traits being used for commodity evaluation in purple-fleshed sweet potato. However, to date, only a few reports are available on the inheritance of these traits. In this study, we used a biparental mapping population of 274 F1 progeny generated from a cross …

Baicalin suppresses neuron autophagy and apoptosis by regulating astrocyte polarization in pentylenetetrazol-induced epileptic rats and PC12 cells

Epilepsy is a common chronic neurological disorder worldwide, but its entire pathology remains unknown. The purpose of this study was to explore the antiepileptic effect of baicalin (BAL), the main bioactive component of scutellaria. We isolated astrocytes from neonatal rats and astrocytes were identified by glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) immunostaining. The viability and phenotype …

Steroid Sulfatase in the Mouse NIH–3T3 Fibroblast Cell Line: Characterization, and Downregulation by Glucocorticoids

Steroid hormones often circulate in the blood as inactive sulfated forms, such as estrone sulfate and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate. The enzyme steroid sulfatase (STS) converts these steroids into active forms, mainly estrogens, in peripheral tissues. We have previously characterized STS activity in human and mouse breast and bone tissues, and we have shown that STS can …

Cancer immunotherapies have been approved as standard second-line or in some cases even as first-line treatment for a wide range of cancers. However, immunotherapy has not shown clinically relevant success in glioblastoma (GBM). This is principally due to the brain’s “immune-privileged” status and the peculiar tumor microenvironment (TME) of GBM characterized by a lack of …
