the Immunohistochemical Study of Stathmin-1 as A Prognostic factor In Non-small cell lung carcinoma
...Show More Authors

Abstract   

 

Background

Stathmin1 (also known as metablastin) is a major microtubule-depolymerizing protein that involved in cell cycle progression and cell motility.

 Stathmin1 has been found to be up-regulated in some cancers and correlated with cell differentiation and proliferation.  

Stathmin1 is a major cytosolic phosphoprotein that regulates microtubule dynamics and is associated with malignant phenotypes in various cancers, including non-small cell lung cancer.

 

Objective

 To evaluate the role of Immunohistochemical expression of stathmin1 in non-small lung carcinoma and its correlation to different prognostic factors or parameters.

 

Materials and methods

This retrospective study carried on formalin fixed paraffin embedded surgical specimens of lung tumors  Applying the Immunohistochemical techniques by using the primary antibodies to stathmin1, statistical analysis done and assessment of correlation with different clinical and pathological parameters measured.

 

 Results

Fifty cases of Non-small lung carcinomas that 42% adenocarcinoma,44% squamous cell carcinoma 10% adenosequamous and 4% non-small lung carcinoma 84 % were Stathmin-1 positive.

 No significant correlation between Stathmin-1 expression with age and gender of patients but Stathmin-1 expression were correlated with parameters including type and grade of tumor.

High expression was noted in poorly differentiated tumors.

 

Conclusions

Measurement of stathmin1 level may be a beneficial prognostic biomarker for non-small lung tumors especially those of poorly differentiated tumors

Stathmin1 expression in non-small cell lung carcinoma significantly correlated with poor tumor differentiation and could be considered as independent prognostic factor.

Immunohistochemical Targeting of p110β Isoform of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase co-associated with Cyclin-Dependent Kinase 1 in a Group of Tissues from Iraqi Patients with Breast Cancer
...Show More Authors

Background: While two-thirds of breast cancers express hormone receptors for either estrogen (ER) and/or progesterone (PR) , genetically altered PI3K pathway was found in more than 70% of ER-positive breast cancers.An aberrant activity of cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDK1) in a wide variety of human cancers has selectively constituted an attractive pharmacological targets in MYC-dependent human breast cancer cells.

Aim of the study:  Role of p110-beta as well as and CDK 1  in the pathogenesis of subset of breast cancers and contribution in their carcinogenesis.

Type of the study: is a retrospective study

Methods: This retr

Serum Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor VEGF and Interlukin-8 As a Novel Biomarkers For Early Detection of Ovarian Tumors
...Show More Authors

Epithelial ovarian cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths from gynecological malignancies. Angiogenesis is considered essential for tumor growth and the development of metastases. VEGF and IL?8 are potent angiostimulatory molecules and their expression has been demonstrated in many solid tumors, including ovarian cancer.VEGF and IL-8 concentrations were measured by ELISA test (HumanVEGF,IL-8). Bioassay ELISA/ US Biological / USA).The median VEGF and IL-8 levels were significantly higher in the sera of ovarian cancer patients than in those with benign tumors and in healthy controls.Pretreatment VEGF and IL-8 serum levels might be regarded as an additional tool in the differentiation of ovarian tumors.

The Effectiveness of Macton's Method for Developing Non-Linguistic Cognitive Sensory Skills for Autistic Spectrum Children
...Show More Authors

The present study aimed at identifying the effectiveness of Macaton method in improving some sensory and cognitive skills in autistic children. In order to achieve the aims of the study, the researcher used the experimental method. The present study sample was (10) children whose ages ranged between (7-10) years and were diagnosed medically with autism disorder. The researcher randomly selected the sample and divided it into two groups: the first group consisted of (5) children representing the experimental group, and (5) children representing the control group after extracting the equivalence between the two groups in terms of age, intelligence, economic and social level and the degree of communication. The program was implemented for t

Novel Coronavirus Pandemic as it is Expressed by Children in Their Drawings On-line: An Analytical Study: نزار بن صالح أحمد عبد الحفيظ
...Show More Authors

This study aimed at identifying how children express the emerging coronavirus in general and according to their age groups (4-13 years) by analyzing 91 of their drawings published online, using the descriptive content analytical approach. The results showed that children's artistic expression of the virus came according to the concepts and ideas they carried about the virus for the age groups of (4-7 years) and (7-9 years), while it came according to visual perception for age groups (9-11 years), and from (11-13) years. Also, most children were aware about the presence of the virus and its widespread around the world, but (99%) of them do not realize the seriousness of the virus. It was confirmed that between (25-34%) of children were su

Cytotoxic effect of Gliotoxin from Candida spp. isolated from clinical sources against cancer and normal cell lines
...Show More Authors

Background: Invasive fungal infections have become more common during the past two decades. Candida species are the most common human fungal infections. Internal injuries characterize these infections because of virulence factors, such as gliotoxin, which is a fungal toxin that is thought to be antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral.

Objectives: To test the ability of Candida species obtained from clinical sources to produce gliotoxin as a virulence factor and investigate its cytotoxicity effects against some selected cell lines. 

Materials and Methods: One hundred and ten clinical isolates of Candida species were obtained from patients attendi
