Intraductal Papillary Neoplasm of the Bile Duct Mimicking a Cholangiocarcinoma
The intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct is a rare tumor considered one of the precursor lesions of cholangiocarcinoma. It is characterized by papillary growth within the bile duct lumen, occurring anywhere in the biliary tree. We report a case of a 70-year-old man who presented with a six-month history of weight loss and occasional choluria.

Abstract Plutonium was discovered and first synthesized in the early 1940's. Several isotopes of plutonium are used in nuclear technologies, 238Pu for heat generation and 239Pu for energy production and weapons. Both isotopes emit alpha particles, which pose a significant radiation hazard when incorporated into the body.

Ubiquitination in cancer: mechanisms and therapeutic opportunities
Abstract Ubiquitination, a key post‐translational modification, plays an essential role in tumor biology by regulating fundamental cellular processes, such as metabolism and cell death. Additionally, it interacts with other post‐translational modifications, which are closely linked to tumorigenesis, tumor progression, the tumor microenvironment, and ...

Abstract Post‐translational modifications (PTMs) play a pivotal role in epigenetic regulation and are key pathways for modulating protein functionality. PTMs involve the covalent attachment of distinct chemical groups, such as succinyl, crotonyl, and lactyl, at specific protein sites, which alter protein structure, function, stability, and activity ...

Abstract IgG4‐related chronic rhinosinusitis (IgG4‐related CRS) is gaining recognition among various specialized physicians. As a systemic disease involving multiple organs, IgG4‐related CRS is still not widely recognized as an independent clinical entity. Given the complexity of diagnosing autoimmune‐related multisystem diseases, early recognition and

ABSTRACT Background Like tumor cells, cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) can enter the bloodstream and may function in systemic circulation. Methods Circulating CAFs (cCAFs) were isolated from the peripheral blood of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients using CD45 depletion and detected by FAP expression using RT‐qPCR.
