Introduction: Hodgkin's lymphoma study by immunohistochemical expression of Bcl-2 in Hodgkin and Reed-Sternberg cells can precise these cases evolutive way.
Material And Methods: Sixty-three cases of classical Hodgkin's disease, hospitalized into the Hematology Department of the County Hospital No. 1 Timisoara, were studied. Histopathological diagnostic was performed using common staining methods, and for revealing the tumoral developments immunohistochemical staining was performed Bcl-2.
Results And Discussion: In our study, the results were noticed a direct relation between the rise of tumoral proliferation index expressions of Bcl-2 and progression of the disease (p < or = 0.001). For I and II stages Bcl-2 expression does not overcome (-/+) category while the III and IV stages, all the cases are situated in (+/-) and (+) categories. No connection we can be noticed between the histological type and Bcl-2 expression although the classic Hodgkin's lymphoma with lymphocyte depletion is considered the most aggressive histological type (p < or = 1). In our study, we found this correlation very important because the main cause of relapses is inadequate staging. In some cases, this staging is difficult; some little lymph nodes could be overlooked because they can be placed in less accessible areas and cannot be evidenced by the most imagistic methods.
Conclusions: All the cases were Bcl-2 expression higher than (+/-) and are staged as I and II stages should be reinvestigated and restaged. This immunohistochemical reaction, although less used in Romania, is very accurate. That is very important because the therapeutically attitude is different in advances stages compared to earlier stages.

Background: Plant flavonoids such as quercetin are useful for both the therapeutic and preventive care of a variety of illnesses. Nevertheless, their antitumor efficacy against KON oral cancer is still unknown. Therefore, the aim of this investigation was to examine quercetin's anti-growth, anti-migrative, and anti-invasive characteristics.

The evolutionarily conserved and multifunctional B-cell lymphoma2 (Bcl2)-associated athanogene proteins (BAGs), serving as co-chaperone regulators, play a pivotal role in orchestrating plant stress responses. In this study, the possible involvement of tomato SlBAG genes in resistance to Botrytis cinerea was examined. The SlBAG genes respond with different expression change patterns to B.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: The pathogenesis of alcoholic gastric injury has long been a significant topic in the medical field. Dan-Shen-Yin (DSY), a classic traditional Chinese medicine formula, has been shown to alleviate gastric mucosal injury and to treat stomachaches in clinical settings. However, the mechanism by which DSY against alcoholic gastric injury requires further investigation.

Interleukin-34 (IL-34) was recently reported to be a new biomarker for atherosclerosis diseases, such as coronary artery disease and vascular dementia. IL-34 regulates the expression of proinflammatory cytokines (IL-17A, IL-1 and IL-6), which are classical cytokines involved in myocardial ischemia‒reperfusion (MI/R) injury. However, the exact role of IL-34 in MI/R remains unknown.
