A morphometric analysis of the inflammatory infiltrate cells of the stroma and adjacent tissue of adenocarcinomas of the rectum was performed in 40 patients. As to therapeutic modality, the patients were divided into 4 groups of 10 patients in each. The 1st group was given surgery only, the 2nd group preoperative gamma-therapy at a dose of 19.5 Gy, the 3rd 30 Gy and the 4th 40 Gy. Integral fractions of lymphocytes, plasmocytes and eosinophils were determined on randomly selected sections using the point counting technique. It was shown that in adenocarcinomas of the rectum integral fractions of the above cells had similar values irrespective of tumor macroscopic shape, degree of differentiation and growth depth. Cellular reactions in the adjacent tissues were more noticeable than in tumor itself, and numerical values of the integral fractions of inflammatory infiltrate cells depended on growth depth. After irradiation a decrease in the lymphocyte integral fraction and an increase in the plasmocyte integral fraction were noted both in the stroma and adjacent tissues.

Annular atrophic lichen planus (AALP) is a chronic subtype of lichen planus that classically does not respond to treatment with topical steroids. An inflammatory reaction in the dermal infiltrate may play a role in the development of AALP, but the exact pathogenesis remains unclear. We present the case of a 54-year-old-female with lesions on her trunk and extremities that developed following vaccination.

The reduction in alveolar ridge height and width after tooth extraction poses a substantial challenge for dental implant restoration. This study aimed to observe the roles of S100A8 in the inflammatory response and bone resorption following tooth extraction. Rat mandibular second molars were extracted.

Background: Acute systemic inflammation affects many organs and it occurs in a wide range of conditions such as acute lung injury (ALI). Inflammation-triggered oxidative pathways together with the caspase activation seen in ALI, result in apoptosis. Dapagliflozin (DPG) is an agent that is known to have oxidative stress-reducing and anti-inflammatory effects in many tissues.

Unlabelled: This study aimed to evaluate gold nanoparticles (GNPs) and photobiomodulation (PBM), associated with antibothropic serum (AS), to treat a muscle lesion induced by Bothrops jararaca venom.
Methods: 108 Swiss male mice were used, divided into nine groups (n = 12) with different combinations of treatments. Animals were inoculated with 250 µg of B.

The kidneys have a regulatory role in many diseases with their diuresis function and capacity to maintain electrolyte balance. In case of extensive damage, the kidney's filtration capacity is impaired and cannot fulfill its functions. Fluvoxamine (FLV), an antidepressant agent, has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.
