The usefulness of full-thickness biopsy during semi-rigid pleuroscopy for differentiating between malignant pleural mesothelioma and non-specific pleurisy

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine
Background Malignant pleural mesothelioma is a rare disease with a poor prognosis; distinguishing it from non-specific pleurisy is essential for determining an appropriate treatment strategy. We aimed to evaluate the diagnostic utility and safety of full-

The influence of the diagnostic technique on the histopathological diagnosis in malignant mesothelioma [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
In the histopathology of malignant mesotheliomas three different types (epithelial, connective tissue and mixed type) are distinguished. Some authors believe all tumours to be of mixed type, but consider that due to inadequate sampling or small biopsies ...

The Role of SAMHD1 in Viral Resistance and Transduction Efficiency Challenges in Pediatric Hematological Malignancies: Mechanistic Insights and Clinical Perspectives

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
SAMHD1 regulates intracellular dNTP pools, influencing lentiviral transduction, gene therapy efficiency, and disease progression in pediatric hematological malignancies. Integrated bioinformatics and targeted strategies, including CRISPR and pharmacological inhibition, highlight its therapeutic potential.

Diffuse Malignant Mesothelioma

open access: yesArchives of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine, 2012
Diffuse malignant mesothelioma (DMM) is an uncommon cancer with great clinical significance because it currently remains an incurable disease, and most patients die within months after diagnosis. Although DMM incidence is leveling off or decreasing in developed countries because of the strict control of asbestos use, it is increasing in countries ...
