A potential diagnostic biomarker: Proteasome LMP2/b1i-differential expression in human uterus neoplasm [PDF]

, 2012
Uterine leiomyosarcoma (ULMS) develops more often in the muscle tissue layer of the uterine body than in the uterine cervix. The development of gynecologic tumors is often correlated with female hormone secretion; however, the development of uterine ULMS

Merkel cell carcinoma: an updated guide for pathologists

Histopathology, EarlyView.
Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is an aggressive cutaneous neuroendocrine carcinoma for which the differential diagnosis can include other small cell malignancies (especially metastatic small cell carcinoma) or cutaneous carcinoma. Morphologic and immunophenotypic aberrancies in MCC can increase diagnostic challenge.

HMGA2 is a highly sensitive marker for DICER1‐related tumours

Histopathology, EarlyView.
Aims DICER1 is a microRNA biogenesis enzyme that, when mutated, results in a rewiring of the transcriptome. Germline pathogenic variants (PVs) in DICER1 result in DICER1‐related tumour predisposition (DRTP) characterized by 30 or more different, generally rare, paediatric or adolescent‐onset tumours.

Cutaneous Leiomyosarcoma of the Skin: An Updated Review of Epidemiology, Pathogenesis, and Management

International Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
This review provides an update on the epidemiology, pathogenesis, and clinical/histologic features of cutaneous leiomyosarcoma. Prognostic factors (e.g., depth of tumor involvement, grade, etc.) that can facilitate risk stratification are also discussed, as are treatment approaches for this rare malignancy.

Coordinated regulation of PIEZO2 by alternative splicing, post‐translational modification, membrane trafficking and protein partners

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Regulatory mechanisms such as alternative splicing, post‐translational modification, membrane trafficking, and protein interactions control channel gating, membrane abundance, and overall activity of PIEZO2. Proper regulation supports PIEZO2‐dependent proprioceptive, somatosensory, nociceptive, pruriceptive and interoceptive ...

Killing of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus-infected fibroblasts during latent infection by activated natural killer cells. [PDF]

, 2011
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) establishes life-long infection by evading clearance by the host immune system. In de novo infection and lytic replication, KSHV escapes cytotoxic T cells and NK cells through downregulation of MHC class-I ...
