Merkel cell carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2006
AbstractBackgroundMerkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is an unusual primary neuroendocrine carcinoma of the skin. MCC is a fatal disease, and patients have a poor chance of survival. Moreover, MCC lacks distinguishing clinical features, and thus by the time the diagnosis is made, the tumour usually have metastasized.

Neuromorphic Devices and Computing for Sensing, Memory, and Control

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This review introduces neuromorphic devices made from diverse materials. These devices mimic neuronal functions and architectures and, when integrated with artificial or biological computing, can form closed loops with neurons for pressure, optical, acoustic, and biochemical sensing and modulation.

Merkel Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesArchives of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, 2010
Abstract Merkel cell carcinoma is a rare, highly aggressive neuroendocrine cutaneous neoplasm with a variable clinical presentation. Histologically, it is a predominantly dermal-based lesion composed of monotonous small round cells with scanty cytoplasm, often difficult to differentiate from small round cell tumors, metastatic small ...

Merkel cell carcinoma with axillary metastasis; a case report of a rare disease

open access: yesJournal of Oncological Sciences, 2018
Merkel cell carcinoma is a rare primer neuroendocrine carcinoma of the skin. It is an extremely aggressive tumor. This rare carcinoma is seen with high local and regional recurrence ratios and distant metastasis.

A Bioinspired, Multimodal Soft Tactile Skin with Task‐Adaptive Perception for Intelligent Robotic Manipulation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Perception in robotic manipulation improves through the cooperative and complementary operation of biologically inspired multimodal tactile sensors. Receptor‐specific contribution analysis identifies which sensing modalities are required for specific tactile tasks.

Single‐Nucleus Transcriptomic Atlas of Human Vellus Hair Pilosebaceous Units Reveals Age‐Associated Remodeling

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Human vellus pilosebaceous units (PSUs) remain uncharted. This single‐nucleus atlas reveals coordinated remodeling of the aging PSU niche: reduced bulge stem cell representation with altered regenerative programs, increased representation of a stress‐responsive channel+ epithelial state, enhanced androgen‐responsive sebaceous programs, reduced ...

Identification of Merkel cell polyomavirus in Merkel cell carcinoma tissue: case report of a Taiwanese patient

open access: yesDermatologica Sinica, 2010
Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare malignancy with aggressive behavior mostly seen in the elderly and immunosuppressed patients. In 2008, the clonal integration of a new human polyomavirus, named Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV), was found to be ...

Pancreatic metastasis of Merkel cell carcinoma and concomitant insulinoma: Case report and literature review

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2005
Background Merkel cell carcinomas are rare neoplasm of neuroendocrine origin, usually observed in elderly people in areas with abundant sunlight, and predominantly located on the head and neck, extremities, and trunk. In many patients, a local recurrence

Merkel Cell Polyomavirus in Respiratory Tract Secretions

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2009
Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV), associated with Merkel cell carcinoma, was detected in 27 of 635 nasopharyngeal aspirate samples by real-time PCR. MCPyV was more commonly found in adults than in children.

Merkel Cells in Somatosensation [PDF]

open access: yesChemosensory Perception, 2008
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
