GRowing an Epidermal Tumor
The glucocorticoid receptor (GR), a member of the nuclear hormone family of transcription factors, has key physiological roles in many organs, including the skin. In this issue, Latorre et al. demonstrate that mice lacking GR in the epidermis exhibit increased vulnerability to chemical carcinogenesis. Evidence supporting an involvement of GR signaling in physiological and pathophysiological pro...
متن کاملInflammatory infiltrate of chronic periradicular lesions: an immunohistochemical study.
AIM To determine the cellular profile of human chronic periradicular lesions using immunohistochemical methods in order to study the differences in the cell infiltrate of periradicular granulomas and cysts. METHODOLOGY The study population consisted of 45 individuals without any systemic disease. Biopsies were obtained during periradicular surgery. Paraffin-embedded sections were stained by t...
متن کاملBilateral inflammatory linear verrucous epidermal nevus
Inflammatory linear verrucous epidermal nevus (ILVEN) is a unilateral skin disorder which usually manifests in infancy or childhood. Female predominance, frequent leg involvement, pruritus, resistance to treatment, and a psoriasiform histologic pattern are other common characteristics of this disease. Atypical presentations of ILVEN have been described and include late onset in life, wide...
متن کاملMismatch repair-dependent mutagenesis in nondividing cells.
Mismatch repair (MMR) is a major DNA repair pathway in cells from all branches of life that removes replication errors in a strand-specific manner, such that mismatched nucleotides are preferentially removed from the newly replicated strand of DNA. Here we demonstrate a role for MMR in helping create new phenotypes in nondividing cells. We show that mispairs in yeast that escape MMR during repl...
متن کاملGangliosides shed by tumor cells enhance tumor formation in mice.
The role of tumor cell membrane gangliosides in tumor formation was probed using a series of cloned murine AKR lymphoma cell lines. Tumor formation was directly related to high expression and shedding of membrane gangliosides. In vivo, as little as 1 pmol of purified total gangliosides of highly tumorigenic cells, injected intradermally with poorly tumorigenic cells (which lacked and did not sh...
