Merkel Cell Carcinoma With Divergent Differentiation—Or Something Else? A Triphasic Cutaneous Carcinoma With Lineage Plasticity

open access: yesJournal of Cutaneous Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare, aggressive cutaneous neuroendocrine carcinoma that typically arises in sun‐exposed skin of older or immunosuppressed patients. Combined or collision tumors involving MCC and other cutaneous malignancies are uncommon, and tumors exhibiting more than two distinct malignant phenotypes are exceptionally rare.

Expression of developmentally regulated transcription factors in Merkel cell carcinoma

open access: yes, 2003
We have examined a number of developmentally regulated transcription factors for expression in Merkel cells and MCC cell lines and demonstrated that their expression patterns may be prognostic in MCC.

FOXA1 is a highly sensitive diagnostic marker for prostate cancer including small cell carcinoma of the prostate

open access: yesHistopathology, EarlyView.
FOXA1 is a highly sensitive diagnostic marker for prostate cancer. Besides prostatic adenocarcinoma, it is also expressed in 57%–80% of metastatic or primary prostatic small cell carcinomas, which lose traditional prostatic markers including NKX3.1. Although it is less specific than NKX3.1, it can serve as a valuable adjunct for confirming prostatic ...

Phototherapies mediated by metallic nanoparticles and near‐infrared radiation in skin cancer: A systematic review

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Recent studies demonstrate that near‐infrared (NIR—750–980 nm)‐mediated photodynamic (PDT) and photothermal (PTT) therapies, combined with metallic nanoparticles (MNPs), show promising results against skin cancer, particularly melanoma, in both in vitro and in vivo models.

Coordinated regulation of PIEZO2 by alternative splicing, post‐translational modification, membrane trafficking and protein partners

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Regulatory mechanisms such as alternative splicing, post‐translational modification, membrane trafficking, and protein interactions control channel gating, membrane abundance, and overall activity of PIEZO2. Proper regulation supports PIEZO2‐dependent proprioceptive, somatosensory, nociceptive, pruriceptive and interoceptive ...

Merkel cell polyomavirus infection and Merkel cell carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Virology, 2016
Merkel cell polyomavirus is the only polyomavirus discovered to date that is associated with a human cancer. MCPyV infection is highly prevalent in the general population. Nearly all healthy adults asymptomatically shed MCPyV from their skin. However, in elderly and immunosuppressed individuals, the infection can lead to a lethal form of skin cancer ...
