Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMutations in Tumor suppressor TP53 Gene in Formalin- Fixed, Paraffin Embedded Tissues of Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC) of Lung CancerAbbas Mohammadi, Ali Vaziri Gohar, Mohamad Reza ShakibaieThe TP53 gene mutations have been extensively studied in lung cancer and have been used as a means to understand the origin(s) and mechanisms of these mutations in lung cancer development. TP53 gene mutations occur frequently in many human cancers. Analysis of TP53 gene mutations can also provide clues to the etiology of tumor formation. Formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissues … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,000 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSuppression of Basal and Cytokine Induced Expression of MHC, ICAM 1 and B7 Markers on Mouse Lung Epithelial Cells Exposed to Diesel Exhaust ParticlesRajiv K. Saxena, Wanda Williams, M. Ian GilmourDiesel exhaust particles (DEP) constitute a significant component of airborne particulates in urban environment. Exposure to DEP is known to enhance susceptibility to viral and bacterial infections. We hypothesized that DEP could partially exert its effect on disease susceptibility by interfering with antigen presentation required for the generation of protective adaptive immune responses. MHC class I and class II molecules, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,607 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImmunofluorometrical Exploring of Cortisol Hormone Levels in the Serum of Patients with Histologically Verified Microcellular Lung CancerIvan MilosevicIt is already known in the science that the cells of microcellular lung cancer can produce ACTH. By following the levels of Cortisol as one consequence of ACTH producing, in the serum of microcellular lung cancer patients, we could make some statistical conclusions how significant these levels would be in eventual future early diagnostic procedures, besides already existing tumormarkers etc. … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,177 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleLung Cancer Detection Using Regularized Extreme Learning Machine and PCA FeaturesK. Kavitha, Dr. V. Saravana Kumar, V. Bhoopathy et al.When finding abnormalities in target images is time-sensitive, as it is with many cancer tumors, image processing techniques have recently found widespread use across various medical industries to improve images for early detection and treatment stages. In the setting of cancer, where time is of the essence in detecting anomalies within medical imaging, our research takes on further urgency. In … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 20, Issue 10 · 5 Aug 2024 · 5,302 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessEvery word in the titlePrimary Eosinophilic Lung Diseases and the Therapeutic Role of Corticosteroids: A Case Report and Literature ReviewHuzairi Sani, Nada Syazana ZulkufliA 17-year-old girl was seen and treated for eosinophilic pneumonia with underlying Hypereosinophilic Syndrome (HES), a rare disorder comprising of the triad: A persistently high eosinophil count, eosinophil-mediated organ damage and with no evidence of other causes of secondary eosinophilia. The diagnosis was subsequently changed to acute exacerbation of chronic eosinophilic pneumonia following reviews of journal updates. Pulmonary eosinophilia is … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 21 Feb 2020 · 12,237 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCytotoxicity and Apoptosis Prevailed by Tricyclohexyltin(IV) Dithiocarbamate Compounds Against Human Lung Carcinoma Cell Line (A549)Normah Awang, Nurul Amalina Abd Aziz, Nur Fatini Nordin, Nurul Farahana KamaludinIn Malaysia, lung cancer is a highly common kind of cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths. This study examined the cytotoxicity of two new tricyclohexyltin(IV) dithiocarbamate compounds compounds, which are tricyclohexyltin(IV) N-methyl-N-benzyldithiocarbamate (C1) and tricyclohexyltin(IV) N-ethyl-N-benzyldithiocarbamate (C2), on lung carcinoma cell lines (A549) of humans. The cytotoxicity was assessed using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Cell death mode … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 13 Jun 2024 · 4,622 accessesView PDFCite
Letters to the EditorOpen accessEvery word in the titleTransfusion-Related Acute Lung InjuryFazal I RaziqWe present here a 50-year-old male with a past medical history of aplastic anemia secondary to myelodysplastic syndrome who presented to the hospital with the chief complaint of severe generalized weakness due to acute anemia. He was transfused one unit of blood and developed ARDS 4 hours later. He was diagnosed with transfusion-related acute lung injury and discharged home after … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 8 Jun 2020 · 12,334 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDoes Over or Under Dispersion in Inverse Binomial Data Suggest Anything? A Case in Point is the Waiting Time for Both Heart-Lung TransplantsRamalingam ShanmugamThe model is an abstraction of the reality. The selection of the usual inverse binomial as an underlying model for the number of patients waiting in months for heart and lung transplant is questionable because the data exhibit not the required balance between the dispersion and its functional equivalent in terms of the mean but rather an over or under … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 29 Jan 2014 · 6,888 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAmeliorate Fuzzy C-Means: An Ameliorate Fuzzy C-Means Clustering Algorithm for CT-Lung Image SegmentationJ. Bridget Nirmala, S. GowriEffective and efficient image segmentation acts as a preliminary stage for the computer-aided diagnosis of medical images. For image segmentation, many FCM-based clustering techniques have been proposed. Regrettably, the existing FCM technique does not generate accurate and standardized segmentation results. This is due to the noise present in the image as well as the random initialization of membership values for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 11 · 1 Oct 2013 · 6,819 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHelicobacter pylori Infection in Never-Smoking Male Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and its Relation to Lung FunctionJordan Minov, Jovanka Karadzinska-Bislimovska, Kristin Vasilevska et al.There is a recent epidemiologic and serologic evidence for relationship between Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). In order to assess the relationship between H. pylori infection and COPD and its impact on lung function we performed a cross-sectional study including 84 never-smoking male patients with COPD and an equal number of never-smoking males without … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Oct 2012 · 8,098 accessesView PDFCite
