We report a case of acinic cell adenocarcinoma of the parotid in a 18-year-old young man. Clinical examination showed a firm mobile mass of the gland. Light microscopy revealed the tumor composed of two distinct cell populations: a main one with large, polyhedrical or round cells with eosinophilic cytoplasm and a smaller proportion of granular cytoplasm clear cells.

Although it is well established that hematopoiesis is regulated by cytokines and cell-to-cell contacts, the role played by neuromediators on the proliferation, differentiation and release of hematopoietic cells is still controversial. We studied the innervation of rat femur bone marrow by means of fluorescence histochemistry and immunohistochemistry.

- - The study aimed to understand how fibroblasts get activated in systemic sclerosis (SSc) by examining patients with different forms of the disease and comparing them to healthy individuals.
- - Researchers analyzed fibroblasts from skin biopsies, finding that those from SSc patients showed higher expression of GM-CSF receptors but did not grow more despite this stimulation; however, they did exhibit increased adhesion structures.
- - The findings suggest that the enhanced adhesion and differentiation of fibroblasts, linked to higher GM-CSF receptor expression, could play a significant role in the development of SSc.
