Basement membranes (BMs) in 201 soft tissue tumours were quantified using computerized image analysis of tissues immunostained for laminin and type IV collagen. The purpose of the study was to compare and quantify the extent of BM deposition in a large and varied group of benign and malignant tumour

We have studied the possible origin of histiocytic cells, present in fibrous histiocytomas (MFH) by using immunohistochemistry to demonstrate lysozyme, alpha 1-antitrypsin, alpha 1-antichymotrypsin and receptors for peanut and soy bean agglutinin in tumour cells of MFH compared with their presence i
We investigated the role of p53 and of the Bcl-2 family proteins in the apoptotic response of a panel of testicular tumour cell lines (NT2, NCCIT, S2 and 2102 EP). The p53 gene status and the capacity of the p53 protein to transactivate the p21/WAF/CIP gene were determined, and we examined the corre
## Background: Several recent studies have suggested an important role of the apoptosis suppressing bcl-2 gene product in prostate cancer progression to an androgen-insensitive disease. ## Methods: Using double-labeling techniques, we have investigated the nuclear androgen receptor (ar) status an
