Objective: Studies of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC) have demonstrated the importance of nuclear receptors and their associated coregulators in the development and treatment of HNSCC. We sought to characterize members of the nuclear receptor super family through interrogation of RNA-Seq and microarray data.

Materials And Methods: TCGA RNA-Seq data within the cBioportal platform comparing HNSCC samples (n = 515 patients with RNA-Seq data) to normal tissue (n = 82 patients) was interrogated for significant differences in nuclear receptor expression.

A 5-year-old female Beagle Dog was euthanized following ten days of inappetence, lethargy, and pain in the left cervical region that was not responsive to steroids or antibiotics. At necropsy, there were multiple soft dark red to tan nodules throughout all lung lobes, abundant purulent subdural exudate over the right temporal lobe of the brain, and minimally enlarged submandibular and tracheobronchial lymph nodes. Impression smear of the subdural pus and histologic section of the lung and meninges demonstrated small aggregates of rod-shaped to filamentous bacteria often surrounded by Splendori-Hoeppli material.
