[OA-32] Analysis of tissue zinc levels in breast cancer subtypes

Our previous study has been discovered that the zinc levels were significantly higher in the surrounding normal breast tissue compared to the invasive breast carcinoma (IBC) tissue. The objective of this study was to quantitatively analyse tissue zinc levels in molecolar subtypes of IBC. Zinc concentrations were evaluated in 45 formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections of IBC by the inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) method. ...

The essentials of vascular pathology

Vascular pathology is defined as the abnormalities of the arterial and venous blood vessels and the lymphatic vessels. Endothelial cell injury usually leads to the development of either arterial or venous change.The lymphatic diseases mostly result from inflammation, infection, and neoplasm....

Cellular injury

Cellular injury is the process through which the cell is unable to maintain its homeostasis in the encounter with injurious stimuli. Generally, the cells with mild injury result in reversible cell damage and there is no cellular death. However, severe cellular injury leads to irreversible change and death of the affected cells....
