ABSTRACT Background Enteric‐type thymic adenocarcinomas are an extremely rare and distinct subtype of thymic malignancies, as classified by the 2021 World Health Organization classification of thymic tumors. These tumors exhibit close molecular and morphologic similarity to primary gastrointestinal malignancies. To date, there are no tailored treatment

Predictors of Mortality in Patients With Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 1
SUMMARY Objective Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 1 (MEN 1) is an autosomal dominant disease predisposing to hyperplasia and neoplasia in diverse endocrine tissues. Patients typically present with endocrine abnormalities before the age of 30 years and have reduced life expectancy.

Beyond fluorodeoxyglucose: Molecular imaging of cancer in precision medicine
Abstract Cancer molecular imaging is the noninvasive visualization of a process unique to or altered in neoplasia, such as proliferation, glucose metabolism, and receptor expression, which is relevant to patient management. Several molecular imaging modalities are now available, including magnetic resonance, optical, and nuclear imaging.

The thera(g)nostic approach with somatostatin analog‐based agents extends beyond gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. Understanding tumor biological mechanisms is essential for optimizing treatment strategies. Abstract First isolated by Brazeau et al. in 1972, somatostatin (SST) is a neuropeptide known for regulating various signaling pathways

Aire-dependent production of XCL1 mediates medullary accumulation of thymic dendritic cells and contributes to regulatory T cell development [PDF]
Dendritic cells (DCs) in the thymus (tDCs) are predominantly accumulated in the medulla and contribute to the establishment of self-tolerance. However, how the medullary accumulation of tDCs is regulated and involved in self-tolerance is unclear. We show

Simultaneous surgical treatment of primary ovarian carcinoid and carcinoid heart disease
The incidence of neuroendocrine tumors (NET) is 2.5–5 per 100 000 population. Up to 20% of patients with NET develop carcinoid syndrome (CS), and in 40–50% of those carcinoid heart disease (CHD) is reported (0.27 per 100 000 population per year) [1 ...
