Assessment and Comparison of Natural Dyes Like Lawsonia inermis, Zingiber officinale, Curcuma longa, Beta vulgaris, Kumkum, and Hibiscus rosa-sinensis With Eosin as a Cytoplasmic Stain in Oral Histopathologies.

Background Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining is a commonly used technique in histology and histopathology. However, the synthetic dye eosin poses risks to both human and animal health. The growing ecological concern has led to efforts to find natural, less toxic, biodegradable, and cost-effective alternatives to eosin.

A case of assisted reproductive technology-induced maternal alloimmunization: an emerging sensitizing factor to consider?

Red blood cell (RBC) alloimmunization can occur because of exposure to various sensitizing factors and poses a constant threat in transfusion. Assisted reproductive technology (ART) involves manipulation of sperm, ova, or embryos with the goal of producing a pregnancy. We present an interesting case of ART-induced maternal alloimmunization (AIMA) due to anti-c in a woman carrying a twin pregnancy.

Salivary and Serum Interleukin-6: A Credible Marker for Predicting Oral Leukoplakia and Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma by Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA).

Background: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most prevalent subtype of oral cancer. Detecting oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) in their early stages is crucial to prevent their advancement into OSCC. One of the primary factors contributing to OSCC is tobacco use, which can lead to increased production of cytokines.

Lipid profile in oral potentially malignant disorders and oral squamous cell carcinoma - A prognostic view.

Introduction: Lipids play an important role in the maintenance of cell integrity. Various tobacco-associated products are known to induce the generation of free radicals and reactive oxygen species, responsible for the high rate of oxidation/peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids. These further release peroxide radicals, causing increased utilization of lipids leading to hypolipidemia.
