Background: The STAT6 pathway is implicated in the pathogenesis of various lymphomas; however, its immunohistochemical expression has not been fully investigated. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the immunohistochemical expression of the two forms of STAT6, phosphorylated or not, in a series of systemic lymphomas.
Materials And Methods: Immunohistochemical expression of two antibodies, STAT6 (clone YE361) and pSTAT6 (clone Y641), which recognise the phosphorylated form of the molecule was studied in 60 lymphomas.
Results: STAT6 expression was cytoplasmic, with 23.3% of the cases showing high expression. pSTAT6 expression was mostly nuclear and found in 45% of the cases. pSTAT6 nuclear expression was associated with the lymphoma type (p < 0.0001), as it was seen mostly in follicular, Hodgkin and angioimmunoblastic T cell lymphomas. STAT6 cytoplasmic expression was also associated with lymphoma type (p = 0.001), as it was mostly found in diffuse large B cell and marginal B cell lymphomas. No association with PD-L1 expression, other clinicopathological data or prognosis was found.
Conclusion: The two STAT6 clones are differentially expressed between lymphoma types.

The cell of origin (COO) classification is an expression-based tumor algorithm identifying molecular subtypes of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) with distinct prognostic characteristics. Traditional immunohistochemical methods for classifying COO subtypes have poor concordance and limited prognostic value in frontline DLBCL. In contrast, RNA-based metrics like the NanoString Lymphoma Subtyping Test (LST) define more robust subtypes with validated prognostic associations.

Objective: Gliomas are a general designation for neuroepithelial tumors derived from the glial cells of the central nervous system. According to the histopathological and immunohistochemical features, the World Health Organization classifies gliomas into four grades. Bevacizumab is a monoclonal antibody targeting vascular endothelial growth factor that has been approved for the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) as a second-line therapy.

Esophageal carcinoma is a highly prevalent malignancy worldwide. The present study aimed to investigate the mechanism by which the natural compound coptisine affects pyroptosis in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). The expression of c-Met in ESCC patients was assessed by immunohistochemical analysis of tissue microarrays.

This study aimed to detect the presence of bovine papillomavirus (BPV) in the testicular tissue of bulls over 1-year old by immunohistochemical, immunofluorescence and molecular assay targeting methods. In addition, γH2AX and cytochrome c expressions were evaluated by immunohistochemical and immunofluorescent methods in samples positive for BPV agent. In this study, 100 testicular specimens that did not show any macroscopic papilloma findings were collected.

Background: Chemotherapy drugs may lead to hepatic injury, which is considered one of the limitations of these drugs.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of quercetin (QUE) on M1/M2 macrophage polarization and hepatoprotective effect in cyclophosphamide (CTX)-induced liver toxicity.
Methods: Twenty-four mice were divided into four groups (Control, QUE, CTX, CTX + QUE).
