Corpora amylacea (CA) have been described in several human organs and have been
associated with ageing and several pathological conditions. Although they were first …

Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) in electron microscopy has been widely used
in many research areas since it provides precise information on the chemical composition of …

Aims: Tumours arising in the transition zone (TZ) of the prostate gland are often well
differentiated and considered clinically unimportant. We have observed examples of high …

BACKGROUND Alterations of important protein pathways, including loss of prostate
secretory granules, and disruption of the prostatic secretory pathway have been identified as …

Corpora amylacea in the prostate are a frequent finding in benign acini, but are only rarely
observed in adenocarcinoma. To determine the incidence and comparative histopathology …

Abstract Incidental 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) uptake in the prostate is often
experienced in clinical practice; however, it is difficult to determine whether incidental uptake …

Background Alpha methylacyl A coenzyme racemase (AMACR) has shown to be an
excellent immunohistological biomarker for prostate cancer (CaP). Given the connection …

Purpose To assess the impact of zonal origin on positive bladder neck (BN) margins and
prostate-specific antigen (PSA) failure or early adjuvant therapy in the patients with complete …

OBJECTIVE To analyse quantitatively the acini and changes in the acinar epithelium and
lumen in the transitional zone of normal and hyperplastic human prostates. PATIENTS AND …

Lectins, proteins which selectively recognize carbohydrates, have been used in
histochemistry for the evaluation of changes in glycosylation in processes of cellular …
