Intraperitoneal metastasis of ovarian cancer: new insights on resident macrophages in the peritoneal cavity [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology, 2023 Ovarian cancer metastasis occurs primarily in the peritoneal cavity. Orchestration of cancer cells with various cell types, particularly macrophages, in the peritoneal cavity creates a metastasis-favorable environment.

Sporadic Neurofibroma of the Peritoneal Cavity. [PDF]
ACG Case Rep J, 2022 ABSTRACT Neurofibromas are peripheral nerve sheath tumors that are typically seen in syndromic conditions such as neurofibromatosis 1. We present the case of a 26-year-old woman suffering from chronic abdominal pain for over 5 years. Prior workup showed a large retroperitoneal mass extending into the abdomen and encasing multiple major ...

The Host Peritoneal Cavity Harbors Prominent Memory Th2 and Early Recall Responses to an Intestinal Nematode [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology, 2022 Intestinal parasitic nematodes affect a quarter of the world’s population, typically eliciting prominent effector Th2-driven host immune responses. As not all infected hosts develop protection against reinfection, our current understanding of nematode ...

GATA6+ Peritoneal Resident Macrophage: The Immune Custodian in the Peritoneal Cavity [PDF]
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2022 Peritoneal resident macrophages (PRMs) have been a prominent topic in the research field of immunology due to their critical roles in immune surveillance in the peritoneal cavity. PRMs initially develop from embryonic progenitor cells and are replenished

microRNA Regulation of Peritoneal Cavity Homeostasis in Peritoneal Dialysis [PDF]
BioMed Research International, 2015 Preservation of peritoneal cavity homeostasis and peritoneal membrane function is critical for long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD) treatment. Several microRNAs (miRNAs) have been implicated in the regulation of key molecular pathways driving peritoneal membrane alterations leading to PD failure.

Primary leiomyosarcoma of peritoneal cavity
Rare Tumors, 2014 Leiomyosarcomas of soft tissue are the rare tumors and the retroperitoneum is the most common site involved. We report a case of primary leiomyosarcoma of the peritoneal cavity which clinically presented with suprapubic, freely mobile, nontender mass ...
