We investigated the distribution and expression of Nrf2 during the peri-implantation period. We detected Nrf2 in uteri of mice during estrus (control) and on days 1, 4, 5, 6 and 8 of pregnancy using immunohistochemistry, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and western blotting. Nrf2 immunostaining was significantly greater on days 1, 5 and 6 of pregnancy compared to controls, and on days 4 and 8 of pregnancy; western blotting results were consistent with immunohistochemical observations. Nrf2 mRNA levels on days 5 and 8 were significantly higher than for control uteri. Increased expression of Nrf2 on days 1, 5 and 6 of pregnancy may be important for uterine receptivity, implantation and decidualization by protecting the developing embryo and uterus from the adverse effects of oxidative stress.","PeriodicalId":8970,"journal":{"name":"Biotechnic & Histochemistry","volume":"98 2","pages":"132-139"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9209470","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We investigated the mRNA expression of ADAMTS-1, ADAMTS-9 and TIMP-3 genes in both healthy gingival tissues and periodontitis. Clinical periodontal measurements were conducted and gingival biopsies were obtained from stage IIIgrade C generalized periodontitis and healthy (control) groups. mRNA expression was evaluated using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RTqPCR). All clinical periodontal parameters were significantly higher in the periodontitis group than for the control group. ADAMTS-1 levels were significantly higher in the periodontitis group and were significantly correlated with clinical attachment level and probing pocket depth. Differences in ADAMTS-9 and TIMP-3 mRNA in the periodontitis group compared to the control group were not statistically significant. Increased ADAMTS-1 mRNA expression in periodontitis indicates that members of the ADAMTS family of metalloproteinases are associated with pathogenesis and progression of periodontal disease.

We investigated egg yolk oil for skin wound healing in streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic rats. Rats were allocated into three groups of six. Group 1, nondiabetic control group, was treated topically with 2% fusidic acid ointment. Group 2, STZ diabetic control, was treated topically with 2% fusidic acid ointment. Group 3, STZ diabetic group, was treated topically with egg yolk oil. Three days after STZ injection, two full thickness excisional skin wounds were created on the back of each animal. Wound diameter was measured for 14 days and wound contraction was calculated. Re-epithelization time also was determined. Three rats from each group were sacrificed on experimental day 7 and the remaining rats on day 14. Wound samples were examined using hematoxylin and eosin, periodic acid-Schiff, Masson's trichrome, Taenzer-Unna orcein and toluidine blue staining. Expression of endoglin (CD105), epidermal growth factor (EGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were investigated using immunohistochemistry. Egg yolk oil increased the proliferation of epithelial cells and angiogenesis, and stimulated collagen deposition in the lesion area. Egg yolk oil increased CD105, EGF and VEGF expression in blood vessels, and EGF and VEGF expression in epidermis of the lesions. The predominant fatty acids in egg yolk oil are oleic, palmitic and linoleic, which likely were responsible for the beneficial effects of egg yolk oil on diabetic wound healing. Egg yolk oil appears to be a promising therapeutic agent for healing of diabetic wounds.</p>","PeriodicalId":8970,"journal":{"name":"Biotechnic & Histochemistry","volume":"98 2","pages":"94-111"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10656238","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I used the iPassport quality management system to track antibody expiration dates and verified extended fit-for-purpose for these reagents. iPassport is web-based quality management software that assists medical laboratories with document control and quality management. Review of the records since the inception of iPassport in 2015 indicates no failed verifications and to date, the average life after expiration is 6 years; eight antibodies have exceeded 6 years. Some antibodies with exceptionally extended lifespans include factor 8 (21 years), factor 13a (19 years) and epithelial membrane antigen (17 years).

Treatment with both biologic and synthetic insecticides reduced the weight gain of the mothers. The biological insecticides reduced the number, weight and length, and increased malformation and mortality of the offspring. In female offspring for all three groups administered insecticides, opening of the vagina was delayed, metestrus was increased and estrogen and progesterone levels were reduced compared to proestrus, estrus and metestrus of the cycle. The ovaries of female offspring of all three groups administered insecticides contained numerous tertiary and atretic follicles, few corpora lutea, primary and secondary follicles, and reduced estrogen receptors compared to controls. In male offspring, all three groups exposed to insecticides exhibited reduced testosterone levels. Histopathological changes in the testes including vacuolation and desquamation of the seminiferous epithelium were observed only in the GX and GDi groups. The number of androgen receptors was reduced significantly in the testes and testicular morphometry revealed reduced tubule diameter, height of the seminiferous epithelium and total tubule length compared to the control.

We investigated the protective effect of ferulic acid on experimental testicular torsion in rats. Animals were divided randomly into five groups: control, ethyl alcohol, torsion, torsion-detorsion, and torsion-detorsion + ferulic acid. Histopathology was assessed using hematoxylin and eosin, and periodic acid-Schiff staining.

Biochemical changes were assessed using assays for superoxide dismutase, malondialdehyde, glutathione peroxidase and glutathione. Ferulic acid reduced the levels of free radicals and increased the levels of antioxidants.

We used 171 invasive breast carcinoma specimens from which tissue microarray blocks were created. Immunohistochemical staining of PD1 using NAT105, and PDL1 using CAL10 was performed on tissue microarray sections. NAT105 and CAL10 are useful clones for detecting expression of PD1 and PDL1. PD1 and PDL1 immunostaining was significantly stronger in carcinomas with basal-like phenotype compared to other molecular breast cancer types. PD1 and PDL1 expression also was associated with a high histologic grade and a high Ki-67 index. PD1 expression also was associated with lymphovascular invasion and axillary metastasis. PD1 and PDL1 expression is associated with aggressive tumor behavior and a basal-like phenotype in breast cancer.
