Bilateral Simultaneous Basal Ganglia Hemorrhage: A Case Report.

BACKGROUND Simultaneous bilateral basal ganglia hemorrhage is an infrequent occurrence in medical literature. The etiology of bilateral basal ganglia intracerebral hemorrhage remains elusive, in contrast to that of unilateral basal ganglia hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage, resulting in lack of consensus among scholars. Importantly, patients with uremia and cerebral hemorrhage, especially patients with large hematoma volumes, exhibit a markedly elevated mortality rate.

Malignant transformation of meningioma: Case report.

Rationale: Meningiomas are mostly benign brain tumors with minimal malignant cases. Anaplastic meningioma has malignant morphological characteristics and a World Health Organization grade of III.

Patient Concerns: The present study reports a case of an occipital meningioma in a patient who initially chose observation and follow-up after diagnosis.

Phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein 4 deficiency exacerbates carbon tetrachloride-induced liver fibrosis by regulating the NF-κB signaling pathway.

Liver fibrosis is a pathological process which can progress to hepatocirrhosis, even hepatocellular carcinoma. Phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein 4 (PEBP4) is a secreted protein involved in regulating many molecular pathways, whereas its roles in diseases including hepatic fibrosis remain undefined. The nuclear factor-κappa B (NF-κB) signaling pathway has been found to be involved in the development of liver fibrosis.

Hepatocyte-Conditional Knockout of Phosphatidylethanolamine Binding Protein 4 Aggravated LPS/D-GalN-Induced Acute Liver Injury the TLR4/NF-κB Pathway.

Acute liver injury (ALI) is a disease that seriously threatens human health and life, and a dysregulated inflammation response is one of the main mechanisms of ALI induced by various factors. Phosphatidylethanolamine binding protein 4 (PEBP4) is a secreted protein with multiple biological functions. At present, studies on PEBP4 exist mainly in the field of tumors and rarely in inflammation.

The Roles And Signaling Pathways Of Phosphatidylethanolamine-Binding Protein 4 In Tumors.

Phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein 4 (PEBP4) has been found to be highly expressed in many tumors and to be closely related to the proliferation, differentiation, and metastasis of tumors. PEBP4 has also been found to be involved in many cancer-activated signaling pathways and to cause therapeutic resistance. In this study, we first reviewed the morphological structure and expression of PEBP4, then discussed the roles of PEBP4 in individualized treatment of some cancers, and finally explored the possibilities of cultivating PEBP4 as a therapeutic target.
