Assessment of Immuno-histochemical Expression of CD44 in Renal Tumors by Banan Mohammed, khalid Abdulfattah Khattab, Payman Salim

“…Background: Cluster of differentiation 44 (CD44) is the most commonly reported immune marker of the cancer stem cells in renal cell carcinoma.Objectives: To assess the frequency of CD44 expression in renal tumors, to assess the expression of CD44 in different histological types, and to detect its association with variable clinicopathological parameters.Materials and methods: In this retrospective case series study, 76 cases of primary renal tumors were obtained by nephrectomy, and a study of CD44 was done by using the immunohistochemical technique.Results: The age of the patients ranged from 29-82 years with a mean of 54.8 ±11.96 with a male to female ratio of 1.05:1. …”

Insights into the signal transduction pathways of mouse lung type II cells revealed by transcription factor profiling in the transcriptome by Chilakamarti V. Ramana

“…Transcription factor profiling in microarray datasets revealed that several members of AP1, ATF, NF-kB, and C/EBP families involved in diverse responses were expressed in mouse lung type II cells. A transcriptional factor signature consisting of Cebpa, Srebf1, Stat3, Klf5, and Elf3 was identified in lung type II cells, Sox9+ pluripotent lung stem cells as well as in mouse lung development. …”
