Abnormal nuclear expression of aquaporin‐3 in lesional and perilesional skin of vitiligo patients: A novel immunohistochemical finding Open
Background Vitiligo is a skin disease characterized by a complex etiopathogenesis. Keratinocyte apoptosis may play a role in vitiligo pathogenesis. Aquaporin‐3 (AQP‐3) is an aqua‐glyceroporin that controls keratinocyte proliferation and di…

Effect of melanocyte keratinocyte transplantation procedure, using ablative CO2 laser and followed by NB-UVB phototherapy, on the expression of E-Cadherin and matrix metalloproteinase-2 in acral vitiligo Open
Background Melanocyte keratinocyte transplantation procedure (MKTP) is a multi-procedural intervention that could hypothetically alter the environment surrounding grafted epidermal cells, helping melanocytes’ migration and adherence to ker…

The landscape of ‘podoplanin’ in dermatology Open
Podoplanin (PDPN) is a specific marker for lymphatic endothelial cells; however, it can be expressed by many other cells including renal podocytes. In dermatology, PDPN has been involved in diverse disorders, such as tumor lymphangiogenesi…

HISTOPATHOLOGICAL FINDINGS IN LESIONAL AND PERILESIONAL SKIN OF VITILIGO PATIENTS BEFORE AND AFTER NARROW BAND ULTRAVIOLET B PHOTOTHERAPY. Open
Background: Vitiligo is a skin disease with complex, multifactorial pathogenesis.Abnormalities in surrounding keratinocytes may cause melanocyte death due to deprivation of growth factors.Narrow band ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) is an effective …

Role of Morphometry and Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 Expression in Differentiating between Atypical Endometrial Hyperplasia and Low Grade Endometrial Adenocarcinoma Open
Background: Endometrial carcinomas are common gynecologic malignancies worldwide. In Egypt they represent 2.6 %. We evaluated the role of morphometry and MMP-9 immunohistochemical expression to differentiate atypical endometrial hyperplasi…

ROLE OF TUMOR NECROSIS FACTOR ALPHA AND BASIC FIBROBLAST GROWTH FACTOR IN THE PATHOGENESIS OF VITILIGO:AN IMMUNOHISTOCHEMICAL STUDY BEFORE AND AFTER MELANOCYTE TRANSFER BY SANDPAPER TECHNIQUE Open
Background: Vitiligo is an acquired depigmentation of skin and mucous membranes.Many theories explain its pathogenesis.Keratinocyte dysfunction in vitiligo may be a possible link between the various pathological changes occurring in vitili…

An Egyptian boy with Haberland syndrome: Case report with observations on the histopathology Open
Haberland syndrome is characterized by diverse malformations affecting the ecto-mesodermal tissues (the central nervous system, the eye, and the skin). The most prominent anomalies include a hairless fatty tissue nevus of the scalp (nevus …

Follicular Stem Cells in Androgenetic Alopecia Open
Although the pathogenesis of androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is poorly understood, recent studies suggest that compromising the integrity of the follicular bulge area and or sebaceous gland may play a role.This study was designed to evaluate t…
