Assessment of Changes in Birefringence and Orientation of Collagen Fibres in Different Grades of Oral Submucous Fibrosis and Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma using Picrosirius Red and Polarising Microscopy [PDF]
Introduction: Oral Submucous Fibrosis (OSMF) is a potentially malignant disease with a prevalence of 7-13%. It is characterised by the fibroelastic changes due to excessive deposition of collagen which results in dense fibrous bands and epithelial ...

Context: Oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) is a potentially malignant oral disorder leading to increased fibrosis in the sub-epithelial layer. The collagen in the condition has been a subject of intense scrutiny in an attempt to understand the pathogenesis ...

Introduction: Collagen forms an integral part of connective tissue and maintains its structural integrity. It has natural birefringence which is attributed to the arrangement of its fibers and is enhanced by special stains such as picrosirius red through

The polarization colors of picrosirius red-stained collagen in systemic sclerosis.
全身性鞏皮症における真皮膠原線維の変化を知るために, Picrosirius red染色標本を偏光顕微鏡にて観察した。皮膚片は15例の全身性鞏皮症患者(浮腫∼硬化期2例, 硬化期11例, 萎縮期2例)の前腕伸側から得られた。また, 健康人27例より得た材料を対照とした。その結果, 健康人では年齢, 性, 部位にかかわりなく同じ橙色偏光を示した。これに対し鞏皮症にあつては, 病期と関係なしにすべて緑色偏光を示すのが観察された。一部についておこなわれた電顕的観察では, 鞏皮症における膠原線維の直径は, 健康人のそれに比較して小さいのが認められた。これらより偏光の違いには膠原線維の直径が関与し, そしてこの方法が鞏皮症の病理組織学的診断に有用であることが示唆される。

Quantitative Insights into Collagen in Oral Epithelial Dysplasia and Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma using Picrosirius Red Stain [PDF]
Context: One of the predominant forms of cancer found in the oral cavity is squamous cell carcinoma. According to the records of the National Cancer Registry Programme, squamous cell carcinoma is the leading type of cancer affecting both men and women in

Abstract Traditional methodologies for fibrosis quantification involve histological measurements, staining with Masson’s trichrome and picrosirius red (PSR), and label-free imaging using second harmonic generation (SHG). The difficulty of label-free cardiac SHG imaging is that both collagen (i.e., collagen 1 fibrils) and myosin are ...

G3BP1 Succinylation at K413 is Critical for Cardiac Function by Modulating PI3K‐AKT‐mTOR Signal Axis
Schematic illustrating the impact of G3BP1 succinylation at K413 on cardiac function. In the healthy human heart, G3BP1 succinylation maintains homeostatic mTOR signaling. In patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and heart failure (HF), G3BP1 de‐succinylation induces RagA expression and disrupts the binding of the TSC1/2 complex, leading to the ...
