The immunohistochemistry technique was evaluated in tissue samples fixed in formaldehyde saline solution 10 % and included in paraffin to be used as a lab method allowing to identify leptospires in tissues. Samples obtained from the experimental inoculation of 8 guinea pigs carriers of L. interrogans Pomona isolated from a clinical case were used. The disease was reproduced in a lab model. The histologic sections of the kidneys of the animals inoculated were subjected to histopathological studies, immunofluorescence, Warthin-Starry stain, and immunohistochemistry technique using formaldehyde-fixed samples. This technique proved to be an efficient tool for the diagnosis of leptospirosis.

Distinct molecular subtypes of muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) may show different platinum sensitivities. Currently available data were mostly generated at transcriptome level and have limited comparability to each other. We aimed to determine the platinum sensitivity of molecular subtypes by using the protein expression-based Lund Taxonomy.

Objective: The objective of this study is to examine the impact of KW-2478 combined with DDP on colorectal cancer cells both in vitro and in vivo and to elucidate the molecular mechanism of KW-2478 in colorectal cancer.
Methods: qRT-PCR and Western blot were employed to assess HSP90 mRNA and protein expression in normal intestinal epithelial and colorectal cancer cells. DLD-1 and HCT116 were selected for the experiment.
Correlations of the expression of Cx43, SCF, p-cyclin E1 (Ser73), p-cyclin E1 (Thr77) and p-cyclin E1 (Thr395) in colon cancer tissues.

Background: Previous cellular studies have demonstrated that elevated expression of Cx43 promotes the degradation of cyclin E1 and inhibits cell proliferation through ubiquitination. Conversely, reduced expression results in a loss of this capacity to facilitate cyclin E degradation. The ubiquitination and degradation of cyclin E1 may be associated with phosphorylation at specific sites on the protein, with Cx43 potentially enhancing this process by facilitating the phosphorylation of these critical residues
Aim: To investigate the correlation between expression of Cx43, SKP1/Cullin1/F-box (SCF), p-cyclin E1 (ser73, thr77, thr395) and clinicopathological indexes in colon cancer.

Alpha-synuclein (ASyn), a marker of Parkinson's disease (PD) and other neurodegenerative processes, plays pivotal roles in neuronal nuclei and synapses. ASyn and its phosphorylated form at Serine 129 (p-ASyn) are involved in DNA protection and repair, processes altered in aging, neurodegeneration, and cancer. To analyze the localization of p-ASyn in skin biopsies of PD patients and melanoma.

Objective: Neuronal damage is criminal to cognitive dysfunction, closely related to endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS). However, due to the pathogenesis of endotoxin-induced long-term cognitive dysfunction is not fully clarified, there is still a lack of effective treatment. This study was conducted to explore the protective effects and mechanism of rosmarinic acid (RA) against ERS in endotoxin-induced cognitive dysfunction in mice and neuronal injury in cells.
