Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a rare lympho-histiocytic disorder of indeterminate etiology usually presenting with lymph node involvement, and infrequently with extra-nodal manifestations. The diagnosis of this condition is challenging due to the wide spectrum of disease manifestations.
To elucidate the radiologic features of this disease using multimodality imaging in histopathologically proven cases and to identify characteristic features that would enable its differentiation from its mimics.
We retrospectively evaluated imaging studies of 19 patients with histopathologically confirmed RDD presenting to our institute between January 2004 and March 2016. Imaging modalities included magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography, FDG-positron emission tomography (PET) CT, mammography, and ultrasonography.
Lymphadenopathy was the most common imaging feature in our study, seen in 11 (57.8%) cases followed by sino-nasal involvement in 7 (36.8%) cases and intracranial masses in 5 (26.3%) cases. Bir disease. Homogeneously enhancing, FDG-avid lymphadenopathy and sino-nasal masses in association with hypointense extra-nodal lesions on T2-weighted MRI are imaging features which could aid the diagnosis of RDD and facilitate its differentiation from pathologies that present in a similar manner.
In cardio-oncology, a range of clinical dilemmas can be identified where high-quality evidence for management is still lacking. The aim of this project was to study clinical practices and expert approaches to several clinical cardio-oncological dilemmas regarding prediction, prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease in adult cancer patients.
A cross-sectional online survey was sent out to internationally renowned experts in the field of cardio-oncology. Participants were selected based on being first or last authors of papers in the field of cardio-oncology, or principal investigators to trials in this field.
Topics discussed include, among others, the use of biomarkers for subclinical cardiovascular toxicity, approaches towards primary prevention and follow-up with medication and life-style recommendations, and management of fluoropyrimidine-vasospasm, QTc-prolongation and asymptomatic declines in left ventricular ejection fraction.
The answers provided in this survey have shed light on expert-based practices in cardio-oncologic dilemmas. Attitudes towards, as well as discrepancies in those dilemmas are presented. Existing discrepancies clearly indicate the need for generation of high-quality data that allows for more evidence-based recommendations in the future.

However, the regulatory mechanism on UHRF1-mediated histone ubiquitination is not clear. Here we present evidence that UHRF1 and USP7 oppositely control ubiquitination of histones H3 and H2B in S phase of the cell cycle and that DNMT1 binds both ubiquitinated H3 and H2B. USP7 knockout markedly increased the levels of ubiquitinated H3 and H2B in S phase, the association of DNMT1 with replication sites and importantly, led to a progressive increase of global DNA methylation shown with increased cell passages. Using DNMT3A/DNMT3B/USP7 triple knockout cells and various DNA methylation analyses, we demonstrated that USP7 knockout led to an overall elevation of DNA methylation levels. Mechanistic study demonstrated that USP7 suppresses DNMT1 recruitment and DNA methylation through its deubiquitinase activity and the interaction with DNMT1. Altogether our study provides evidence that USP7 is a negative regulator of global DNA methylation and that USP7 protects the genome from excessive DNA methylation by attenuating histone ubiquitination-dependent DNMT1 recruitment.
Pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) is thought to usually stem from deep vein thrombosis (DVT). However, evidence of DVT could not be found in many cases. Furthermore, transient thyrotoxicosis is a rare but potentially life-threatening emergency involving a systemic hypercoagulable state. We report on an 18 year-old-girl with transient thyrotoxicosis with massive PTE without DVT.
An 18-year-old girl was admitted to the hospital with syncope. Patient had no history of trauma, any known underlying disease or oral contraceptives use. Chest computed tomography (CT) showed massive PTE in both central pulmonary arteries and diffuse goiter. However, a low extremity Doppler sonogram did not detect DVT. To manage the PTE, we administered low molecular weight heparin. On the other hands, thyroid function test indicated a state of thyrotoxicosis. In addition, patient had a partial protein S deficiency but no other immunologic abnormality. check details Therefore, the patient was diagnosed with massive PTE, thyrotoxicosis, and partiallications.Calcium dysregulation often underlies pathologies associated with aging and age-associated neurodegenerative diseases. Cells express a unique pattern of Ca2+ channels and pumps geared to fulfill specific physiological requirements and there is a decline in the fidelity of these processes with age and age-associated diseases. J147 is an Alzheimer's disease (AD) drug candidate that was identified using a phenotypic screening platform based upon age-related brain toxicities that are mediated by changes in calcium metabolism. The molecular target for J147 is the α-F1-ATP synthase (ATP5A). J147 has therapeutic efficacy in multiple mouse models of AD and accelerated aging and extends life span in flies. A bioinformatics analysis of gene expression in rapidly aging SAMP8 mice during the last quadrant of their life span shows that J147 has a significant effect on ion transport pathways that are changed with aging, making their expression look more like that of younger animals. The molecular basis of these changes was then investigated in cell culture neurotoxicity assays that were the primary screen in the development of J147.
