Article Abstract

Background/aim: Endosialin is present in human fibrosarcoma neoplastic cells. This study aimed to analyse the expression of selected cellular proteins found in fibrosarcomas and soft-tissue fibroids in dogs.

Materials And Methods: A total of 71 skin tumours obtained from dogs were used. The samples included 31 fibromas and 40 fibrosarcomas. Histopathological evaluation was performed according to World Health Organization guidelines. Immunohistochemistry was performed with anti-endosialin, Ki-67, cyclo-oxygenase 2 and vimentin antibodies and assessed using the semi-quantitative scale.

Results: Endosialin expression was observed in 82.5% of fibrosarcomas and in 35% of fibromas. A significant positive correlation was found between the expression of endosialin in fibrosarcoma neoplastic cells and the degree of histological malignancy and the expression of the Ki-67 and cyclo-oxygenase 2 antigen. Expression of vimentin confirmed mesenchymal origin of this tumours.

Conclusion: The results of our research suggest that endosialin is involved in the carcinogenesis of fibrosarcoma in dogs.

The mononuclear phagocyte system (MPS) is an ensemble of heterogeneous cells comprising circulating monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells. Immunohistochemistry is a valuable technique to detect, quantify, and localize MPS cells in tissues, but a comprehensive characterization of MPS cells in normal tissues of mice is lacking to date. The aim of this study was to immunohistochemically characterize MPS cells in a set of murine healthy tissues and in a subset of representative disease states.

The tumor micro-environment is a key determinant for promoting cancer cell growth and development with exosomal miRNAs emerging as key regulators of tumor growth and metastasis. miR16 is one well-established tumor suppressor miRNAs that induces apoptosis, while inhibiting angiogenesis and inflammation across various cancers. Herein, we investigated the role of exosomal miR16 in the cervical cancer microenvironment and its underlying molecular mechanisms.

1'-Acetoxychavicol acetate (ACA) is a natural compound derived from rhizomes of the Zingiberaceae family that suppresses the nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway; however, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Therefore, the present study investigated the molecular mechanisms by which ACA inhibits the NF-κB signaling pathway in human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells. The results obtained showed ACA decreased tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α-induced intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) expression in A549 cells.

Background: TBXT, a member of the T-box transcription factor family, drives epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in the metastasis of some cancers. However, the relationship between the epigenetic regulatory landscape and its expression in lung cancers remains elusive.

Methods: Circularized chromosome capture combined with sequencing (4C-seq) was employed to analyze physical chromatin interactions at the TBXT loci in the lung cancer cell line H460, a high TBXT-expressing cell line, compared to H358 and A549, which do not express TBXT.

Intranasal tumors in dogs are rare neoplastic diseases with obvious clinical signs, such as epistaxis, nasal congestion, and facial deformity. Radiation therapy is the treatment of choice but is not always accessible due to geographical location, logistics, or financial constraints. Other treatments may not be used because of various restrictions.
