Sporadic Medullary Microcarcinoma in a Young Patient - A Rare Case

Online Journal of Health & Allied Sciences, 2010
Sporadic medullary microcarcinoma of thyroid is a rare disease detected usually in 0.15% of all thyroid malignancy. We report a case of sporadic medullary microcarcinoma (MMC) of thyroid in a 24 year old male presenting as solitary thyroid nodule.

Altered Maturation of Medullary TEC in EphB-Deficient Thymi Is Recovered by RANK Signaling Stimulation

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
In the present study, the relevance of EphB2 and EphB3 tyrosine kinase receptors for the maturation of medullary thymic epithelial cells (TECs) is analyzed. The absence of both molecules, but particularly that of EphB2, courses with altered maturation of

Relevance of Medullary Vein Sign in Neurosarcoidosis

Neurology International, 2022
Background: Central nervous system involvement is uncommon in patients with sarcoidosis. It remains a diagnostic challenge for clinicians, as there is a broad differential diagnosis that matches the presenting neurological signs.

C-cell hyperplasia in sporadic and familial medullary thyroid carcinoma

Indian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology, 2018
Context: C-cell hyperplasia (CCH) is characterized by increased mass of C-cells and has been identified as a precursor condition for medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC). Varying proportion of MTCs is associated with CCH in different studies.

Renal pericytes: regulators of medullary blood flow [PDF]

, 2012
Regulation of medullary blood flow (MBF) is essential in maintaining normal kidney function. Blood flow to the medulla is supplied by the descending vasa recta (DVR), which arise from the efferent arterioles of juxtamedullary glomeruli.

False positive results using calcitonin as a screening method for medullary thyroid carcinoma

Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2013
The role of serum calcitonin as part of the evaluation of thyroid nodules has been widely discussed in literature. However there still is no consensus of measurement of calcitonin in the initial evaluation of a patient with thyroid nodule.

Aire-dependent production of XCL1 mediates medullary accumulation of thymic dendritic cells and contributes to regulatory T cell development [PDF]

, 2011
Dendritic cells (DCs) in the thymus (tDCs) are predominantly accumulated in the medulla and contribute to the establishment of self-tolerance. However, how the medullary accumulation of tDCs is regulated and involved in self-tolerance is unclear. We show
