The emerging roles of ribosome biogenesis in craniofacial development. [PDF]
Neural crest cells (NCCs) are a transient, migratory cell population, which originates during neurulation at the neural folds and contributes to the majority of tissues, including the mesenchymal structures of the craniofacial skeleton.

Somatostatin analogue scintigraphy: A simple and sensitive method for the in vivo visualization of Merkel cell tumors and their metastases [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Trabecular carcinomas of the skin, or Merkel cell tumors, are aggressive neoplasms that tend to occur in sun-exposed skin. These tumors frequently metastasize and, despite therapy, the number of disease-related deaths is high ...

A clinical case of Merkel cell carcinoma
Merkel cell carcinoma is a rare, rapidly progressive, aggressive skin tumor with frequent metastasis and high mortality. The disease is a multifactorial pathology resulting from the interaction of endogenous and exogenous risk factors.

Mining for viral fragments in methylation enriched sequencing data [PDF]
Most next generation sequencing experiments generate more data than is required for the experimental set up. For example, methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD) affinity purification based sequencing is often used for DNA-methylation profiling, but up to 30% of

Introduction Merkel cell carcinoma and dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans are two very rare neoplasms. The simultaneous occurrence of two different tumour entities at the same anatomical site, collision tumours, is a rare phenomenon.

DETECTing Merkel Cell Polyomavirus in Merkel Tumors
Abstract Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare, aggressive skin cancer caused either by Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCV) T antigen expression, post integration (∼80% cases), or by UV mediated DNA damage. Interestingly, overall survival of patients suffering from MCV positive Merkel cell carcinoma is better, making this ...

Merkel Cell Carcinoma: The Past, the Present, and the Future
Since the first description of the Merkel cell carcinoma by Cyril Toker in 1972, the number of studies has significantly increased over the last 4 decades.

Merkel cell carcinoma is a rare, but highly malignant tumor of the skin with high rates of metastasis and poor survival. Its incidence rate rises and is currently about 0.6/100000/year.

Pathophysiology of merkel cell
The objective of this review is to introduce Merkel cells (MCs), to provide a basic overview on the theoretical background of function, development and clinical importance of MCs. The origin of human MCs have been controversial. Some investigators believe that it is a neural crest derivate, whereas others have proposed that it is a differentiation ...

Merkel Cells in Somatosensation [PDF]
Merkel cells are rare epidermal cells whose function in the skin is still debated. These cells localize to highly touch-sensitive areas of vertebrate epithelia, including palatine ridges, touch domes and finger tips. In most cases, Merkel cells complex with somatosensory afferents to form slowly adapting touch receptors; it is unclear, however, whether
