Trans-oral robotic surgical excision of an ectopic parathyroid adenoma
, 2016 BACKGROUND: The pyriform sinus is a potential location for ectopic parathyroid tissue and we describe the use of trans-oral robotic to excise the ectopic tissue. METHODS: A 55-year-old female presented with primary hyperparathyroidism.

Unexpected thymoma in a challenging case of hyperparathyroidism
Clinical Case Reports, 2020 We report the case of a woman with primary hyperparathyroidism suspected of mediastinal ectopic parathyroid adenoma revealed to be a thymoma. Our aim was to focus on some possible criticisms in distinguishing between ectopic parathyroid and thymus.

MEN1 Deficiency Drives Lung Cancer Progression via Activation of MMP10‐Mediated Angiogenesis
Cancer Science, EarlyView.MEN1 deficiency promotes JunD‐mediated upregulation of MMP10 expression, which cleaves pro‐HB‐EGF and activates endothelial EGFR. This triggers the PI3K/Akt and MEK/ERK signaling pathways, thereby driving angiogenesis and tumor progression. MMP10 inhibitor treatment blocks this cleavage, suppresses EGFR signaling, and thereby delays malignant ...
