## Abstract ## Background Hemangiopericytoma (HPC) of the head and neck is a rare neoplasm whose biologic behavior is difficult to predict by means of conventional histologic parameters. ## Methods H & E–stained sections from 12 cases of HPC were reviewed. Proliferation index was assessed using

Thymidine kinase (TK) is involved in DNA synthesis by the salvage pathway. In this study, thymidine kinase (TK) was determined in routinely prepared cytosols of primary tumors from 290 breast-cancer patients. Enzyme activity was measured using a radioenzymatic method optimized for detection of the f
Serum lgAl contains 0-linked carbohydrate structures, whereas other immunoglobulins contain only N-linked structures. An assay was developed which detects lgAl by measuring the DGalP(1-3) DGalNAc structures 0-linked to the lgAl hinge region. Fifty percent of the serum specimens from cancer patients
## Abstract This report describes the appearance of ectopic chromosome around centrosome (ECAC) in metaphase cell nuclei of high‐risk HPV‐associated cervical neoplasms. ECAC are clearly visible on HE‐stained sections as a tiny (approx. 0.7 μ), round, dark structure or an aggregate of filamentous ch
## Abstract High‐risk HPVs play a causal role in the development of cervical cancer, and their E6 oncoproteins target h‐Dlg for ubiquitin‐mediated proteolysis. The h‐Dlg oncosuppressor is associated with cell–cell interactions, and deregulation of these structures leads to defective cell adhesion,
