Corresponding Author and colleagues identify a pancreas‐enriched microRNA, miR‐216b‐5p, that suppresses PTBP1 and its downstream effector TYMS. Their findings reveal a novel miR‐216b‐5p/PTBP1/TYMS regulatory axis driving pancreatic cancer progression and establish PTBP1 as a central molecular regulator of tumor biology beyond its metabolic role ...

Integrative Bayesian Analysis Identifies Rhabdomyosarcoma Disease Genes
Summary: Identifying oncogenic drivers and tumor suppressors remains a challenge in many forms of cancer, including rhabdomyosarcoma. Anticipating gene expression alterations resulting from DNA copy-number variants to be particularly important, we ...

ABSTRACT Eccrine squamous syringometaplasia (ESS) is an uncommon reactive alteration of eccrine ducts, most often reported in oncologic and transplant settings, where it may clinically mimic acute cutaneous graft‐versus‐host disease (GVHD). We describe a 3‐year‐old boy with chronic granulomatous disease who developed a diffuse erythematous eruption 6 ...

Viruses disrupt functions of human lymphocytes. Effects of measles virus and influenza virus on lymphocyte-mediated killing and antibody production. [PDF]
We present experimental data that offer, in part, a better understanding of the immunosuppression that accompanies measles virus infection. We note that measles virus "silently" infects human lymphocytes and that the infection does not alter lymphocyte ...

Emerging Techniques in Minimally Invasive Surgery in Hematologic Malignancies
ABSTRACT Hematologic malignancies represent the most common cancers in children. While the mainstays of treatment are chemotherapy and potentially hematopoietic stem cell transplant, minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has a role in the diagnosis and management of complications related both to disease and therapy as well as common pediatric surgical ...

Costello syndrome is caused by heterozygous de novo missense mutations in the protooncogene HRAS with tumor predisposition, especially rhabdomyosarcoma. We here report two pediatric patients with Costello syndrome and umbilical ligament rhabdomyosarcoma.

PARP inhibitors affect growth, survival and radiation susceptibility of human alveolar and embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma cell lines [PDF]
PARP inhibitors (PARPi) are used in a wide range of human solid tumours but a limited evidence is reported in rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS), the most frequent childhood soft-tissue sarcoma.
