Clinical significance of histologic subtyping of malignant pleural mesothelioma

Translational Lung Cancer Research, 2020
Malignant mesothelioma (MM) is uncommon, but very aggressive tumor arising from the mesothelial cells of pleura, pericardium, peritoneum, and tunica vaginalis. Despite multimodality treatments 5-year survival is only 5% after the diagnosis. Histology and

Adenomatoid tumors of the male and female genital tract are defined by TRAF7 mutations that drive aberrant NF-kB pathway activation. [PDF]

, 2018
Adenomatoid tumors are the most common neoplasm of the epididymis, and histologically similar adenomatoid tumors also commonly arise in the uterus and fallopian tube.

Methylation biomarkers can distinguish pleural mesothelioma from healthy pleura and other pleural pathologies

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We developed and validated a DNA methylation–based biomarker panel to distinguish pleural mesothelioma from other pleural conditions. Using the IMPRESS technology, we translated this panel into a clinically applicable assay. The resulting two classifier models demonstrated excellent performance, achieving high AUC values and strong diagnostic accuracy.

Unusual Cause of Diffuse Pleural Thickening (Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma Mimic): Undifferentiated Epithelioid Malignant Neoplasm

Oman Medical Journal
The symptoms of malignant pleural mesothelioma can be mimicked by some other malignancies, clinically and radiologically. We describe a case of a 57-year-old man whose clinical and radiological findings were consistent with malignant pleural mesothelioma;

Inhibition of cyclin-dependent kinase 7 down-regulates yes-associated protein expression in mesothelioma cells. [PDF]

, 2020
Cyclin-dependent kinase 7 (CDK7) is a protein kinase that plays a major role in transcription initiation. Yes-associated protein (YAP) is a main effector of the Hippo/YAP signalling pathway.

Bacterial Infection Elicits Heat Shock Protein 72 Release from Pleural Mesothelial Cells [PDF]

, 2013
Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) has been implicated in infection-related processes and has been found in body fluids during infection. This study aimed to determine whether pleural mesothelial cells release HSP70 in response to bacterial infection in vitro

Inducers of epithelial mesenchymal transition and cancer stem cells in malignant pleural effusions [PDF]

, 2016
The Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) plays a role not only in tumor metastasis but also in tumor recurrence. This process is believed to be tightly linked to the presence of Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs) however, it is still not clear which ...
