ABSTRACT Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has prognostic value in extramammary Paget's disease (EMPD) without lymph node enlargement; however, its therapeutic value is unknown. The likelihood of sentinel lymph node metastasis is extremely low, especially when the primary tumor is an intraepidermal lesion; therefore, sentinel node biopsy should not be ...

A guide to heat shock factors as multifunctional transcriptional regulators
The heat shock factors (HSFs) are evolutionarily conserved transcription factors best known as regulators of molecular chaperone genes in response to heat shock and other protein‐damaging stresses. Vertebrate HSFs, HSF1‐5, HSFX, and HSFY, are implicated in various physiological and pathological processes, including organismal development and cancer ...
