Two cases are reviewed, both of which developed tumoral calcinosis whilst receiving 1, alpha-hydroxy-cholecalciferol therapy. Tumoral calcinosis is an extreme form of peri-articular calcification, and its occurrence in patients with chronic renal failure is unusual. These peri-articular masses developed around the shoulders in both patients, and the action of 1, alpha-hydroxycholecalciferol as ...

INTRODUCTION Tumoral calcinosis is a rare and benign condition characterized by massive subcutaneous soft tissue deposits of calcium phosphate predominantly around large joints. CASE PRESENTATION Familial tumoral calcinosis was present in two members of a Han Chinese family, namely, the son and daughter. The 14-year-old son had the first operation on his right sole of the foot at the age of s...

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare CD10 expression in tumoral and stromal cells of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and basal cell carcinoma (BCC) in order to differentiate SCC from BCC in problematic cases. Methodology: Twenty six SCC and 30 BCC cases were retrieved randomly from Al-zahra hospital pathology archive and CD10 expression was determined in tumoral and stromal c...

Background: For years, scientists have been striving to identify compounds improve the characteristics and functions of cells for therapeutic applications. Objectives: This study aimed evaluate effect aqueous decoction internal septum walnut kernel (DISWK) on survival, total antioxidant capacity (TAC), cell cycle rat bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem (rBM-MSCs). We also evaluated expression ...

We present a case of cerebellar tumoral multiple sclerosis in an 11-year-old girl and emphasize these two features: (1) Tumoral multiple sclerosis can occur within the posterior fossa and should be strongly considered in the differential diagnosis of mass lesions of the posterior fossa when typical white matter lesions are seen on T2-weighted images. (2) Tumoral multiple sclerosis can demonstra...

Glioblastomas, (grade 4 astrocytomas), are aggressive primary brain tumors characterized by histopathological heterogeneity. High-resolution sequencing technologies have shown that these tumors also feature significant inter-tumoral molecular heterogeneity. Molecular subtyping of these tumors has revealed several predictive and prognostic biomarkers. However, intra-tumoral heterogeneity may und...

Disorders of the esophagus could include various conditions such as inflammation, stricture or esophageal-phase dysphagia. Management these disorders is rapidly developing, which includes conservative, surgical and modern techniques use stem cells. Stem cells are characterized have not differentiated, able to multiply differentiate into multiple organ cells, has ability self-renewal vital in di...

Message Sequence Charts (MSCs) are a graphical and textual language for the speciication of message passing systems, in particular telecommunication systems. MSCs are standardised by the Internal Telecommunication Union in standard Z.120. Included in the standard is a formal semantics for MSCs by means of a process algebra. This semantics covers the complete language of single MSCs but lacks an...

The mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which are derived from the mesoderm, are considered as a readily available source for tissue engineering. They have multipotent differentiation capacity and can be differentiated into various cell types. Many studies have demonstrated that the MSCs identified from amniotic membrane (AM-MSCs) and amniotic fluid (AF-MSCs) are shows advantages for many reasons, i...
