The prognosis of patients with resectable hepatocellular carcinoma depends mainly on the anatomical extent of the tumour and on the general condition of the patient. Given the growing evidence that proliferation indices may be of prognostic significance in hepatocellular carcinomas and that paramete

BACKGROUND. Proliferation, apoptosis, and angiogenesis are essential for carcinogenesis. Little is known regarding the relation between proliferation, apoptosis, and angiogenesis in untreated prostate carcinoma as well as alterations associated with androgen ablation.
Biliary atresia (BA), which is thought to result from progressive destruction of the bile ducts by a necroinflammatory process, is the most common cause of obstructive jaundice in infancy. Abnormalities in the cell turnover of remodelling ductal plates are considered one of the important aetiologica
## BACKGROUND. Radiotherapy is used in the treatment of laryngeal carcinoma. The search for biologic parameters that could be used to identify patients who will respond to radiotherapy is crucial. The aim of this study was to determine whether the Ki-67 and p53 indices and the pretreatment apoptot
Experimental animal models have demonstrated that angiogenesis is essential for tumour progression, whilst sustained tumour growth requires a positive balance between tumour cell proliferation and cell death (apoptosis). The aim of this study was to determine the relative contribution of apoptosis,
