Cytometry Part B: Clinical Cytometry focuses on the development and applications of cellular system analysis and array based technologies as applied to clinical practice and translational research. This journal also covers relevant techniques such as flow cytometry, image cytometry, beadbased and slide-based array analyses, as well as other cell-based spectroscopic analyses. In addition, Clinical Cytometry publishes clinical and translational investigations that identify and validate the features and molecules important in diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutic management of patients Clinical Cytometry is an official publication of the International Clinical Cytometry Society.

The aim of Cytopathology is to publish articles relating to those aspects of cytology which will increase our knowledge and understanding of the aetiology, diagnosis and management of human disease. It contains original articles and critical reviews on all aspects of clinical cytology in its broadest sense, including:

Diagnostic Cytopathology is intended to provide a forum for the exchange of information in the field of cytopathology, with special emphasis on the practical, clinical aspects of the discipline. The editors invite original scientific articles, as well as special review articles, feature articles, and letters to the editor, from laboratory professionals engaged in the practice of cytopathology. Manuscripts are accepted for publication on the basis of scientific merit, practical significance, and suitability for publication in a journal dedicated to this discipline. Original articles can be considered only with the understanding that they have never been published before and that they have not been submitted for simultaneous review to another publication.

This monthly review journal aims to provide the practising diagnostic pathologist and trainee pathologist with up-to-date reviews on histopathology and cytology and related technical advances.Each issue contains invited articles on a variety of topics from experts in the field and includes a mini-symposium exploring one subject in greater depth. Articles consist of system-based, disease-based reviews and illustrated case reports. They update the readers on day-to-day diagnostic work and keep them informed of important new developments. The journal aims to cover the main breadth of hsitopathology in a three yearly cycle.Both the contributors and readership are seen as being International. The trend toward continuing education/accreditation has a strong influence in the shaping of the journal's content and is reflected in the inclusion of a self-assessment section.

Diagnostic Pathology is ready to receive manuscripts on all aspects of surgical and clinical pathology.

Egyptian Journal of Forensic Science is the official journal of the Forensic Medicine Authority, Ministry of Justice, Egypt.

The European Journal of Cell Biology, a journal of experimental cell investigation, publishes reviews, original articles and short communications on the structure, function and macromolecular organization of cells and cell components. Contributions focusing on cellular dynamics, motility and differentiation, particularly if related to cellular biochemistry, molecular biology, immunology, neurobiology, and developmental biology are encouraged. Manuscripts describing significant technical advances are also welcome. In addition, papers dealing with biomedical issues of general interest to cell biologists will be published. Contributions addressing cell biological problems in prokaryotes and plants are also welcome.

Under new editorial leadership, Experimental and Molecular Pathology presents original articles on disease processes in relation to structural and biochemical alterations in mammalian tissues and fluids and on the application of newer techniques of molecular biology to problems of pathology in humans and other animals. The journal also publishes selected interpretive synthesis reviews by bench level investigators working at the "cutting edge" of contemporary research in pathology. In addition, special thematic issues present original research reports that unravel some of Nature's most jealously guarded secrets on the pathologic basis of disease.Research Areas include:• Stem cells• Neoangiogenesis• Molecular diagnostics• Polymerase chain reaction• In situ hybridization• DNA sequencing• Cell receptors• Carcinogenesis• Pathobiology of neoplasia• Complex infectious diseases• Transplantation• Cytokines• Flow cytomeric analysis• Inflammation• Cellular injury• Immunology and hypersensitivity• AthersclerosisBenefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

The aim of this study was to visualize the expression of androgen receptor, cytochrome P450 aromatase and FSH receptor mRNAs in various structures of porcine ovary. Porcine ovaries were frozen in liquid nitrogen, and 8 mm sections were prepared for in situ hybridization. In the small, medium and large antral follicles as well as in early, midluteal and regressing corpora lutea mRNAs for androgen receptor, P450 aromatase and FSH receptor were detected. In small antral follicles high levels of mRNAs for androgen and FSH receptors were observed, mainly in the granulosa layer, while mRNA expression for P450 aromatase was negligible. As follicles grew, amount of mRNAs for androgen receptor and FSH receptor decreased, and that for P450 aromatase increased. Small amounts of androgen receptor mRNA were also present in corpora lutea at all examined stages. P450 aromatase mRNA was not detected in early and midluteal corpora lutea. However, regressing corpus luteum showed a weak expression of aromatase mRNA.
