UBE2C‐Mediated CD147‐CTLA‐4 Axis Promotes T Cell Exhaustion and Immunosuppressive Microenvironment in Bladder Cancer

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
UBE2C upregulates cellular CD147 and enhances its release into the tumor microenvironment both as soluble CD147 (sCD147) and packaged within tumor‐derived exosomes. These CD147‐bearing signals induce T‐cell exhaustion, marked by elevated CTLA‐4 expression and reduced secretion of effector cytokines (IFN‐γ, TNF‐α, TGF‐β), ultimately diminishing CD8+ T ...

Malignancy in Pediatric Hyperfunctioning Thyroid Nodules: A Case Report and Literature Review

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Thyroid nodules are rare in children but carry a markedly higher risk of malignancy compared to adults (20%–26% vs. 5%). Hyperfunctioning thyroid nodules are exceptionally uncommon in the pediatric population and are typically benign.

Extranodal Marginal Zone Lymphoma: Integrating Etiology, Microenvironment, and Genetics Into Clinical Decision‐Making

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma (EMZL) represents a unique paradigm among indolent B‐cell neoplasms, in which lymphomagenesis is frequently driven by chronic antigenic stimulation within tissue‐specific microenvironments. Persistent infectious or autoimmune triggers promote the development of ectopic lymphoid tissue and sustain B‐cell ...

Ectopic thyroid in an adrenal mass: a case report

BMC Urology, 2006
Background It is difficult to explain ectopic thyroid beneath the diaphragm because during the development the thyroid descends from the tongue to the anterior of the trachea.

Behind the scenes: how the EMILIN/Multimerin family shapes the cancer landscape

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The EMILIN/Multimerin family members regulate key hallmarks of cancer—including apoptosis, angiogenesis, metastasis, and tumor microenvironment remodeling. As indicated, their function in immune evasion, drug resistance, and metabolic reprogramming remains largely unexplored.

Thyrotoxicosis Associated with a Hypopharyngeal Toxic Nodular Thyroid

Case Reports in Endocrinology, 2017
Ectopic thyroid is a rare developmental anomaly which may be either asymptomatic or present with thyroid dysfunction as well as pressure symptoms. Here we present a novel case of thyrotoxicosis associated with a hypopharyngeal multinodular thyroid in a ...

Waist‐to‐height ratio and renal dysfunction as independent correlates of low handgrip strength in patients with type 2 diabetes

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
In 1,468 patients with type 2 diabetes, central obesity (WHtR >0.5) neutralizes the protective effects of higher BMI on muscle strength. Concurrently, visceral adiposity and CKD impose an additive threat, maximizing low handgrip strength risk (aOR = 1.74). Combining WHtR and renal tracking optimizes clinical sarcopenia screening.

Ectopic Thyroid Tissue in Submandibular Region

MAMC Journal of Medical Sciences, 2019
Ectopic thyroid is the presence of gland at any location except for its normal position in the anterior neck in front of the trachea. It may result from an early arrest of migration or migration along an abnormal path.

CHARGE Syndrome: A Narrative Review and Update on Diagnosis, Assessment and Management

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background CHARGE syndrome (CS) is a rare multisystemic genetic condition caused by a pathogenic variant in the DNA‐binding protein‐7 CHD7 gene. The condition affects the development of neural crest cells, which give rise to craniofacial structures, cranial nerves, ears, eyes and the heart, resulting in diverse and complex clinical features ...
