Article Synopsis
  • - The presence of multiple skin lesions in infants may indicate underlying health issues, requiring dermatopathologists to differentiate between conditions that have different treatment outcomes.
  • - The article focuses on three rare conditions: congenital disseminated pyogenic granuloma, multifocal infantile hemangioma, and multifocal lymphangioendotheliomatosis with thrombocytopenia, highlighting how to distinguish them using histopathology and immunohistochemistry.
  • - A case study is presented about an infant with congenital disseminated pyogenic granuloma affecting both skin and liver, showing that the lesions can resolve naturally over time without treatment, which underscores the importance of diagnosis and monitoring.

Understanding the 3D structure of RNA is key to understanding RNA function. RNA 3D structure is modular and can be seen as a composition of building blocks of various sizes called tertiary motifs. Currently, long-range motifs formed between distant loops and helical regions are largely less studied than the local motifs determined by the RNA secondary structure.

Despite the enormous promise of T cell therapies, the isolation and study of human T cell receptors (TCRs) of dedicated specificity remains a major challenge. To overcome this limitation, we generated mice with a genetically humanized system of T cell immunity. We used VelociGene technology to replace the murine TCRαβ variable regions, along with regions encoding the extracellular domains of co-receptors CD4 and CD8, and major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and II, with corresponding human sequences.

Primary cilia protrude from the apical surface of many cell types and act as a sensory organelle that regulates diverse biological processes ranging from chemo- and mechanosensation to signaling. Ciliary dysfunction is associated with a wide array of genetic disorders, known as ciliopathies. Polycystic lesions are commonly found in the kidney, liver, and pancreas of ciliopathy patients and mouse models.
