G Protein‐Coupled Receptor Signaling: Implications and Therapeutic Development Advances in Cancers
G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the dynamic protein family in the human genome. GPCR dysregulation aids in the advancement of cancer through increased migration, survival, and proliferation. Novel treatments that target GPCR signaling include orthosteric ligands, biased receptor mutants, PROTACs, and antibody–drug conjugates.

Giant Parathyroid Tumor: Parathyroid Adenoma versus Parathyroid Carcinoma
Parathyroid adenoma is the most common cause of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). We present the preoperative detection of a giant parathyroid adenoma (GPA) using (99mTc)-sestamibi parathyroid scintigraphy in a patient presenting with severely elevated

ABSTRACT Objective Calcitonin (CT) represents the most important biochemical marker of medullary thyroid cancer (MTC), but has certain limits. Procalcitonin (ProCT) has been recognized as an alternative or additional marker for MTC. The aim of the study is to evaluate prospectively the role of ProCT combined with CT in the identification of MTC ...

Clonal Composition of Human Adrenocortical Neoplasms [PDF]
The mechanisms of tumorigenesis of adrenocortical neoplasms are still not understood. Tumor formation may be the result of spontaneous transformation of adrenocortical cells by somatic mutations.
