The Bcl-2 family of proteins has been implicated as a necessary factor in the death caused by a large number of different agents of a wide variety of cell types. Cystine is a precursor for the biosynthesis of the intracellular Thiol, (glutathione) GSH. The mechanism by which Bcl-2 resist cystine deprivation induced apoptosis was investigated in hepatocyte Hepz/Bcl-2 and Hepz/pEF cell lines.

The aim of this work was determining the role of Protein kinase C (PKC) signaling pathway in apoptosis of Leishmania tropica promastigotes, through studying effects of PKC specific inhibitor Staurosporine (STS) on the parasite. Our results showed that treated L. tropica with Staurosporine was enough to inhibit PKC pathway completely, while viability test showed that the concentration of STS to inhibit cell growth by 50% (IC50 = 2.146μM).
We had shown that the mechanism of analgesia induced by swimming stress in Wistar males is closely related to stress, some of the relation to this mechanism with cortical hormones. The aims of this research is to study the sexual differences in th e mechanism of analgesia induced by swimming stress in both male and female Wistar rats and the possibility of its relation with sexual hormones. The male and female show an increase in the threshold of pain as result of swimming stress (Swimming in the water during 3 minutes, with 16 C). The analgesia in the females was more important compared with males. The pretreatment with naloxone led to a partial inhibition of stress- induced analgesia in both sexes, but in males it was more important.
To find out the correlation between persistence of uterine artery notch and development of intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) and pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH), and to see if Doppler assessment can help identify high risk pregnancies.
Recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2 ) is effectively to regenerate defects of the maxillary and mandible bones. Such defects are sometimes caused by resection of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) yet the biologic effects of rhBMP-2 on this malignancy and its histological relations and the ability of invasion and metastasis are not fully clear. Aim of the study : this study aimed to investigate the effects of rhBMP2 on E-cadherin expression , which plays a pivotal role in the cellular adhesion through the adherent junctions.
Background & Objective: This immunohistochemical study is to investigate the correlation between p53 & Ki67 and the grade of malignancy of squamous cell carcinoma, to estimate functional behavior of the cancerous cell by Ck17, and to compare the resu lts with the histological grading. Methods & Materials: 64 samples (biopsies) were chosen to check for p53, Ki67 & Ck17 at department of oral histology and pathology between 2002- 2009. Conclusion: There is a strong positive correlation between the degree of malignancy and the signs of cellular atypism (morphological changes) and the immunhistochemical positivity specially p53 and Ki67, and there is a strong negative correlation between the positivity of p53, Ki67 and the plasmolymphatic infiltrate. We must be sure of the correct diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma by histological and immunohistochemical examination, and attention should be given to use more than one immune reactive.
