    Abstract Background: Mycosis fungoides (MF) is considered the commonest type of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma representing about 50% of all primary cutaneous lymphomas. Differentiation between MF and another inflammatory dermatitis (BIDs) is important to ensure proper management.
    Aim: We aimed to evaluate the immunohistochemical expression of T OX, ICOS, and GATA binding protein 3 (GATA-3) in early stages MF (stage IA and IB) to establish their diagnostic value and to guide the use of inhibitors in the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphomas.
    Materials and methods: A retrospective study of 75 skin paraffin blocks (punch biopsy) 40 cases of MF and 35 cases of eczematous dermatitis as a group representing other inflammatory dermatitis were retrieved from archives of the pathology department of our University, during the period from October 2017 to May 2021.
    Results: About 98% and 90% of patients in the MF group had positive T OX and ICOS, while 70% of them had positive GATA-3. High expression of T OX, ICOS, and GATA-3 was associated with higher stages.
    Conclusions: T OX is considered a diagnostic marker for early MF. The importance of identifying novel markers in MF expressed by immunohistochemistry, such as ICOS, has been established. According to our results, GATA-3 could be used as an accessory marker in the diagnosis of MF when combined with T OX and ICOS in a panel.

    Abstract Background: Urinary bladder cancer (BC) is the seventh most common cancer worldwide with the highest incidence rates in Western Europe, North America, and Australia. The most common type of BC is urothelial carcinoma (UC), which represents a significant cause of morbidity and mortality.
    Objective: The aim of the study was to evaluate the prognostic value of CD24, SOX2, and Nanog in UC cases and the correlation with recurrence and survival.
    Materials and methods: In this study, the authors investigated the expression of CD24, SOX2, and Nanog in 80 patients with urinary BC. The clinical significance of the markers was evaluated by assessing the correlation with the clinicopathologic parameters and prognosis.
    Results: The CD24 expression was positive in 62.5% of the BC patients, there was a significant association between CD24 expression and high grade and stage and lymphovascular invasion (LVI), P (0.002, 0.0010, and 0.001). SOX2 was expressed in 60 patients (75%), the expression was significantly associated with age, stage, grade, LVI, lymph node, and smoking, P (0.016, 0.01, <0.001, 0.003, 0.036, and 0.002), respectively. Nanog expression was positive in 60% of the BC patients. There was a significant association between Nanog expression and age, high grade, high stage, and LVI ( P =0.016, <0.001, and 0.003), respectively.
    Conclusions: A significant relation between CD24, SOX2, and Nanog with the invasive potential of UC. This increase in expression of the 3 markers with the grades and stages of UC suggests that they can play a role in the development of UC, so they can be used in targeted therapy in the future.

    Abstract Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most prevalent malignancies in Egypt. HCCs usually have a poor prognosis because of late diagnosis, aggressive metastasis, and early invasion. Heterogeneous ribonucleoproteins (HnRNPs) are nuclear proteins that play a variety of roles in telomere formation, DNA repair, cell signaling, and gene regulation.
    .: Zincfinger Eboxbinding homeoboxes (ZEBs) are transcription factors that have a consistent inverse correlation with Ecadherin in numerous types of cancer and associated with poor prognosis.
    Aim: This study aimed to verify the prognostic expression of HnRNP A1, ZEB1, and E-cadherin in HCC.
    Settings and design: The retrospective study consisted of 54 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue blocks of hepatocellular carcinoma.
    Methods and material: Immunohistochemical staining was performed using antibodies against HnRNP A1, ZEB1, and E-cadherin. The patients were followed at the Clinical Oncology Department from May 2018 to July 2021.
    Statistical analysis: SPSS version 20 using the Chi-square test to compare data and the Kaplan-Meier plot for comparing survival.
    Results: HnRNP A1 high positivity was detected in 59.3% of the cases, whereas negative E-cadherin and ZEB 1 expression presented in 37% and 70.4% of the patients, respectively. A statistically significant relation was present between HnRNP A1, ZEB1, E-cadherin, and various clinicopathological variables. The mean progression-free survival and overall survival in low HnRNP A1 and negative ZEB1 expressions were longer than those exhibited in high HnRNP A1 and positive ZEB1 expressions.
    Conclusion: HnRNP A1 and ZEB1 expressions are poor prognostic factors of HCC. E-cadherin has an important role in the development of differentiated HCCs and favorable outcome.
