Brain tryptophan and the neoplastic anorexia-cachexia syndrome

Cancer, 1979
The cause of anorexia associated with neoplasia is unknown, and some investigators have suggested a central mechanism. Recent neurophysiologic studies have revealed the possible role of serotoninergic system involving tryptophan (TRP) and its indole neurotransmitter metabolites in regulating particular aspects of feeding behavior.

Neoplasms of the skin are the most frequently diagnosed tumours of domesticated animals. The prevalence varies depending on the study and geographical location, but in dogs and cats they represent between 25% and 58% of all neoplasms.

Sézary syndrome: phenotypic and functional characterization of the neoplastic cells

Scandinavian Journal of Haematology, 1985
Phenotypic properties of the neoplastic cells in skin, blood and lymph node specimens from 5 patients with the Sézary syndrome were examined by immuno‐enzymatic and ‐fluorescence labelling of cells and tissue sections with a monoclonal antibody panel. In 3 cases, the in vitro functional properties of the neoplastic cells (isolated from blood specimens)

HCV-related autoimmune and neoplastic disorders: the HCV syndrome

Digestive and Liver Disease, 2007
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) chronic infection may be associated with a great number of both hepatic and extrahepatic manifestations. HCV lymphotropism is responsible for poly-oligoclonal B-lymphocyte expansion, which is the common underlying alteration in a significant percentage of HCV-infected individuals.

Neoplastic involvement of pericardium producing the syndrome of constrictive pericarditis

American Heart Journal, 1948
Abstract 1. 1. Tumors of the pericardium are relatively uncommon and the symptoms are variable. 2. 2. Most cases present themselves as pericardial effusions, usually serosanguinous, or else show signs of myocardial failure terminally. 3. 3. A case is described in which symptoms of constrictive pericarditis appeared somewhat rapidly during

The difficulties of pseudo-Cushing's syndrome (or “non-neoplastic hypercortisolism”)

Annales d'Endocrinologie, 2018
Pseudo-Cushing's syndrome covers different pathological conditions responsible for mild-to-moderate ACTH-dependent hypercortisolism, related not to an ACTH-secreting tumor but rather to CRH and/or AVP hypothalamic secretion through activation of various neural pathways, in patients generally displaying excess central adiposity. It is better termed "non-
