Do embryonic stem cells markers Oct4 and Nanog correlate with perineural invasion in human salivary gland mucoepidermoid carcinoma?
The stem cell markers CD44, Bmi1, Oct4 and Nanog are frequently expressed in MEC in relation to normal salivary gland and Oct4 and Nanog expression may contribute to aggressiveness and worst prognosis in MEC patients.
These data reveal that aged Fischer 344 rats exhibit altered EEG activity (reduction of higher frequencies) and clinical manifestations during kainate-induced status epilepticus. Taken together, these data indicate an age-related change in seizure onset and spread after exposure to glutamate analogues.
