Nodal T-cell lymphoma with eosinophilic infiltration and sclerosing fibroplasia in a cat with eosinophilia.

An 8-year-old castrated male mixed-breed cat presented with an abdominal mass of unknown origin, accompanied by eosinophilia. Autopsy revealed mild-to-severe enlargement of lymph nodes throughout the body and multiple nodules in the lungs. Histopathologically, the lymph nodes showed severe fibroplasia and infiltration by a large number of eosinophils and fewer tumor cells, exhibiting large-sized lymphoid cell morphology.

A pancreatic cancer organoid incorporating macrophages reveals the correlation between the diversity of tumor-associated macrophages and cancer cell survival.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a progressive cancer with a poor prognosis. It contains a complex tumor microenvironment (TME) that includes various stromal cell types. Comprehending cellular communications within the TME is difficult due to a lack of research models that can recapitulate human PDAC-TME.

Identification of the Promoter Antisense Transcript Enhancing the Transcription of the Equine Herpesvirus-1 Immediate-Early Gene.

Equine herpesvirus-1 (EHV-1) causes respiratory diseases, abortion, and encephalomyelitis in horses. The EHV-1 immediate-early (IE) protein, essential for viral replication, is transactivated by the binding of a multiprotein complex including the open reading frame 12 (ORF12) and some host factors to the IE promoter region. Promoter-associated non-coding RNAs (pancRNAs), which are transcribed from bidirectional promoters, regulate the transcription of neighboring genes in mammals and pathogens.

Generation of human iPSC-derived 3D bile duct within liver organoid by incorporating human iPSC-derived blood vessel.

In fetal development, tissue interaction such as the interplay between blood vessel (BV) and epithelial tissue is crucial for organogenesis. Here we recapitulate the spatial arrangement between liver epithelial tissue and the portal vein to observe the formation of intrahepatic bile ducts (BDs) from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC). We co-culture hiPSC-liver progenitors on the artificial BV consisting of immature smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells, both derived from hiPSCs.

Generation of -like multicellular liver organoids by mimicking developmental processes: A review.

Liver is involved in metabolic reactions, ammonia detoxification, and immunity. Multicellular liver tissue cultures are more desirable for drug screening, disease modeling, and researching transplantation therapy, than hepatocytes monocultures. Hepatocytes monocultures are not stable for long.
