Age and the means of bypassing stasis are determinants of the intrinsic subtypes of immortalized human mammary epithelial cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2015
Based on molecular features, breast cancers are grouped into intrinsic subtypes that have different prognoses and therapeutic response profiles. With increasing age, breast cancer incidence increases, with hormone receptor-positive and other luminal-like

HERC4 downregulates KRT19 to promote lung adenocarcinoma, migration, invasion and EMT

open access: yesTranslational Oncology
Background: Metastasis is a major cause of treatment failure and poor prognosis in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a crucial role in promoting LUAD metastasis.

Periocular keratoacanthoma: A clinicopathologic study and diagnostic challenges

open access: yesThe Pan-American Journal of Ophthalmology
Purpose: Keratoacanthoma (KA) is a cutaneous neoplasm that presents as a rapidly growing tumor on ultraviolet light-exposed skin. It appears as an exophytic, crater-like lesion filled with keratin. In periocular sites, the eyelids are most often affected.
