Pan-Cancer Landscape Analysis Reveals Recurrent KMT2A-MAML2 Gene Fusion in Aggressive Histologic Subtypes of Thymoma.

open access: yesJCO Precision Oncology, 2020
PURPOSE Thymomas are epithelial neoplasms that represent the most common thymic tumors in adults. These tumors have been shown to harbor a relatively low mutational burden.

Cytokeratin 13 (CK13) expression in cancer: a tissue microarray study on 10,439 tumors

open access: yesAPMIS, Volume 131, Issue 2, Page 77-91, February 2023., 2023
Cytokeratin 13 (CK13) is a type I acidic low molecular weight cytokeratin, which is mainly expressed in urothelium and in the squamous epithelium of various sites of origin. Loss of CK13 has been implicated in the development and progression of squamous epithelial neoplasms. To comprehensively determine CK13 expression in normal and neoplastic tissues,

Thymoma Associated Myasthenia Gravis (TAMG): Differential Expression of Functional Pathways in Relation to MG Status in Different Thymoma Histotypes

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
A unique feature of thymomas is their unrivaled frequency of associated myasthenia gravis (MG). Previous studies reported that MG+ thymomas contain a larger number of mature “pre-emigrant” CD4+ T cells than MG- thymomas and that most thymomas do not ...

Role of autoantibody levels as biomarkers in the management of patients with myasthenia gravis: A systematic review and expert appraisal

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neurology, Volume 30, Issue 1, Page 266-282, January 2023., 2023
Myasthenia gravis is recognized as an immunoglobulin G autoantibody‐mediated disease, but the relationship between autoantibody levels and disease activity is unclear. We conducted a systematic literature review to evaluate this landscape, which yielded 10 studies mainly describing a positive, significant correlation.

Salvage resection of advanced mediastinal tumors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The surgical treatment of locally advanced mediastinal tumors invading the great vessels and other nearby structures still represent a tricky question, principally due to the technical complexity of the resective phase, the contingent need to carry out

A tale of autoimmunity: thymoma, thymectomy, and systemic lupus erythematosus

open access: yesClinical Rheumatology, 2020
The thymus plays an integral role in immune system regulation, modulating the development, diversity, and selection of T lymphocytes, a critical feature for the prevention of T cell-mediated autoimmunity. Thymoma is a rare tumor of the thymus. Autoimmune

Seizures in anti‐Hu–associated extra‐limbic encephalitis: Characterization of a unique disease manifestation

open access: yesEpilepsia, Volume 63, Issue 12, Page e172-e177, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Anti‐Hu–associated neurologic autoimmunity most often occurs in the context of small cell lung cancer and typically presents with peripheral neuropathy, cerebellar ataxia, and/or limbic encephalitis. Extra‐limbic encephalitis causing seizures is a rare disease manifestation, with only sparse reports in the literature.

Sclerosing thymoma-like thymic amyloidoma with nephrotic syndrome: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2017
Background Primary localized amyloidosis presenting as an isolated mediastinal mass is extremely rare, especially in the thymus. Sclerosing thymoma is also an extremely rare anterior mediastinal tumor, pathologically characterized by extensive sclerotic ...
