  • Immune Function of Mir-214 and Its Application Prospects As Molecular Marker
    Immune function of miR-214 and its application prospects as molecular marker Qiuyuan Wang, Yang Liu, Yiru Wu, Jie Wen and Chaolai Man College of Life Science and Technology, Harbin Normal University, Harbin, China ABSTRACT MicroRNAs are a class of evolutionary conserved non-coding small RNAs that play key regulatory roles at the post-transcriptional level. In recent years, studies have shown that miR-214 plays an important role in regulating several biological processes such as cell proliferation and differentiation, tumorigenesis, inflammation and immunity, and it has become a hotspot in the miRNA field. In this review, the regulatory functions of miR-214 in the proliferation, differentiation and functional activities of immune- related cells, such as dendritic cells, T cells and NK cells, were briefly reviewed. Also, the mechanisms of miR-214 involved in tumor immunity, inflammatory regulation and antivirus were discussed. Finally, the value and application prospects of miR-214 as a molecular marker in inflammation and tumor related diseases were analyzed briefly. We hope it can provide reference for further study on the mechanism and application of miR-214.

This is one of a series of experiments designed to determine whether selected chemicals have the capacity to produce cancer in animals. Negative results, in which the test animals do not have a significantly greater incidence of cancer than control animals, do not necessarily mean the test chem­ ical is not a carcinogen because the experiments are conducted under a limited set of circumstances. Positive results demonstrate that the test chemical is carcinogenic for animals under the conditions of the test and indicate a potential risk to man. The actual determination of the risk to man from animal carcinogens requires a wider analysis. CONTRIBUTORS; This bioassay of p-cresidine was conducted by Mason Research Institute, Worcester, Massachusetts, initially under direct contract to the NCI and currently under a subcontract to Tracor Jitco, Inc., prime contractor for the NCI Carcinogenesis Testing Program.

Methods: We used 76 cases diagnosed as primary GISTs during January 2007 to July 2017 at Army Institute of Pathology, Thailand. Clinical, survival, and pathological data were collected and analyzed. Results: Ages of the patients ranged from 15 to 88 years (M:F = 1:1). The most common presentation was gastrointestinal bleeding (39.7%). The most common site was the stomach (64.5%). Tumor size ranged from 0.6 to 25.5 cm (average 8.78 cm). Histologic types were spindle cell type (75%), mixed spindled-epithelioid type (17.1%), and epithelioid type (7.9%). The majority of histologic subtype was diffuse hypercellularity (67.1%). Tumor necrosis was found in 38.1% and 80% showed low mitotic counts. Most gastrointestinal stromal tumors (27.6%) are low-risk category according to Miettinen and Lasota’s algorithm. Metastasis was found in 27.7%, mostly occurs within 2 years, and is correlated with tumor size > 10 cm (P = 0.023), non-spindle cell histologic type (P = 0.027), mitotic count > 5/5mm2 (P = 0.000), myxoid change (P = 0.011), and mucosal invasion (P = 0.002). Recurrence was found in 8.1%, mostly occurs within 7 years, and correlated with myxoid change (P = 0.045).

Calvo · Luis A. P´erezRomasanta · V´ıctorM. P´erez-Garc´ıa Received: date / Accepted: date Abstract Glioblastoma is a rapidly evolving high-grade astrocytoma that is distinguished pathologically from lower grade gliomas by the presence of necro- sis and microvascular hiperplasia. Necrotic areas are typically surrounded by hypercellular regions known as pseudopalisades originated by local tumor ves- sel occlusions that induce collective cellular migration events. This leads to the formation of waves of tumor cells actively migrating away from central hypoxia. We present a mathematical model that incorporates the interplay among two tumor cell phenotypes, a necrotic core and the oxygen distribution. Our simu- lations reveal the formation of a traveling wave of tumor cells that reproduces the observed histologic patterns of pseudopalisades. Additional simulations of the model equations show that preventing the collapse of tumor microvessels leads to slower glioma invasion, a fact that might be exploited for therapeutic purposes.

  • Lung Equivalent Terms, Definitions, Charts, Tables and Illustrations C340-C349 (Excludes Lymphoma and Leukemia M9590-9989 and Kaposi Sarcoma M9140)
    Lung Equivalent Terms, Definitions, Charts, Tables and Illustrations C340-C349 (Excludes lymphoma and leukemia M9590-9989 and Kaposi sarcoma M9140) Introduction Use these rules only for cases with primary lung cancer. Lung carcinomas may be broadly grouped into two categories, small cell and non-small cell carcinoma. Frequently a patient may have two or more tumors in one lung and may have one or more tumors in the contralateral lung. The physician may biopsy only one of the tumors. Code the case as a single primary (See Rule M1, Note 2) unless one of the tumors is proven to be a different histology. It is irrelevant whether the other tumors are identified as cancer, primary tumors, or metastases. Equivalent or Equal Terms • Low grade neuroendocrine carcinoma, carcinoid • Tumor, mass, lesion, neoplasm (for multiple primary and histology coding rules only) • Type, subtype, predominantly, with features of, major, or with ___differentiation Obsolete Terms for Small Cell Carcinoma (Terms that are no longer recognized) • Intermediate cell carcinoma (8044) • Mixed small cell/large cell carcinoma (8045) (Code is still used; however current accepted terminology is combined small cell carcinoma) • Oat cell carcinoma (8042) • Small cell anaplastic carcinoma (No ICD-O-3 code) • Undifferentiated small cell carcinoma (No ICD-O-3 code) Definitions Adenocarcinoma with mixed subtypes (8255): A mixture of two or more of the subtypes of adenocarcinoma such as acinar, papillary, bronchoalveolar, or solid with mucin formation. Adenosquamous carcinoma (8560): A single histology in a single tumor composed of both squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma. Bilateral lung cancer: This phrase simply means that there is at least one malignancy in the right lung and at least one malignancy in the left lung.
