## Background: The expression of bcl-2 protein has been related to histopathological features and prognosis in several epithelial tumors. in prostatic adenocarcinoma the prognostic significance of bcl-2 expression is mainly unexplored. ## Methods: The expression of bcl-2 protein was assessed in 2
Apoptosis induced by effector cells of the immune system or by cytotoxic drugs is a main mechanism mediating the prevention or elimination of tumoral cells. For instance, the human T-cell leukemia Jurkat is sensitive to Fas-induced apoptosis and to activation-induced cell death (AICD), and the promo
An experimental model of advanced human neuroblastoma, IGR-N-91, which is able to disseminate in the nude mouse, has been described. The present study was designed to ascertain which cell population from the IGR-N-91 primary tumour actually disseminates throughout the animals. In s.c. IGR-N-91 tumou
