Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is characterized by typical morphologic features and the CD5+, CD23-immunophenotype. However, some morphologically typical MCLs are CD23+. A t(11;14)(q13;q32) translocation is frequently found in MCL, leading to overexpression of cyclin D1. We studied the expression of cyclin D1 in 50 small cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas by real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Most cases with typical MCL morphologic features and immunophenotype gave a strong signalfor cyclin D1, whereas most typical chronic lymphocytic leukemias/small lymphocytic lymphomas (CLLs/SLLs) gave weak or no signals. Based on these results, we determined a threshold value for the diagnosis of cyclin D1-overexpressing MCL. Cyclin D1 expression in 17 lymphomas with conflicting data from morphologic examination and immunophenotyping was variable. The concordance of cyclin D1 measurements with morphologic features and immunophenotype in typical cases proves the usefulness of the method. Unexpectedly high values were found in few CLL/SLL cases and in many CD23+ lymphomas with MCL morphologic features.

Background: Rex rabbit is famous for its silky and soft fur coat, a characteristic predominantly attributed to its hair follicles. Numerous studies have confirmed the crucial roles of mRNAs and non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in regulating key cellular processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis and immunity. However, their involvement in the regulation of the hair cycle in Rex rabbits remains unknown.

To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics of solid, endometrial-like and transitional (SET) cell growth subtype in high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSC). Clinical data of 25 cases of HGSC-SET were collected from January 2020 to March 2024 at the Affiliated Suzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, and their histological features were analyzed. Immunohistochemical stains were used to analyze the expression of ER, PR, PAX8, WT-1, p16, p53 and Ki-67.

Morphological map of the proximal ulna bare area: a computer-assisted anatomical study in relation to olecranon osteotomy.

Electronic address:

Objective: The bare area is defined as a transverse region within the trochlear notch, serving as an optimal entry point for olecranon osteotomy due to the absence of articular cartilage coverage. However, there is limited research on the morphology and location of the bare area, and there is a lack of intuitive visual description. Thus, the purpose of this study is to delineate anatomical features of the bare area and visualize its morphology and refine the olecranon osteotomy approach.

We provide an overview of recent advances in the diagnosis and classification of intestinal T- and NK-cell lymphomas and lymphoproliferative disorders that primarily involve the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. It should be mentioned that systemic T- and NK-cell lymphomas can present initially in the GI tract but are not the focus of this review. Here, we focus on the clinical and pathologic findings of enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma, monomorphic epitheliotropic intestinal T-cell lymphoma, intestinal T-cell lymphoma not otherwise specified, indolent T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder of the GI tract and indolent NK-cell lymphoproliferative disorder of the GI tract (previously known as NK-cell enteropathy).
