Introduction: Cytokeratins (CKs) have been associated with precancerous and cancerous gastric lesions in patients with Helicobacter pylori-associated chronic gastritis, making them useful for diagnosing epithelial tumors.
Methodology: A retrospective study was conducted utilizing 200 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded gastric biopsy samples collected from the lesser curvature of the stomach. Samples from the control group, patients with H.
Gastric adenocarcinoma is a malignant neoplasm of the gastric mucosa composed of neoplastic cells and supporting stroma as with any neoplasm. Stromal myofibroblasts have an essential role in creating the tumor-promoting environment. They express certain substances, such as CD10.

CDX2 is a homeobox caudal protein family member encoded by the gene and is probably playing a role in intestinal epithelial differentiation and proliferation. This study aimed to assess the expression of this protein in gastric cancer cells in addition to its correlation with multiple clinicopathological parameters.

An analysis of all oral pathology submitted to the Department of Histopathology in Rizgary Teaching Hospital in Erbil, Iraq, during the 6-year period 2008-2013, was performed.
Methods: Histopathology samples (excluding smears) from the maxillae, mandible, salivary glands, the lips and oral mucosa, the tongue, the hard and soft palate and uvula, and the pillars of the fauces were included.
