Introduction: Ovarian yolk sac tumors after the menopause are very rare.
Case Presentation: We report an atypical case of yolk sac tumor in an octogenarian woman, who presented to the hospital with anasarca, ascites, toxic syndrome, and an abdominal mass. Serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels were highly increased (246,720 ng/mL), and malignant cells with positive AFP immunohistochemical expression were detected in a diagnostic paracentesis.
Article Synopsis
- MicroRNAs (miRNAs) such as miR-99a-5p, miR-100-5p, and miR-125b-5p are typically downregulated in malignant germ cell tumors (GCTs), leading to potential issues in tumor growth and behavior.
- In this study, researchers used quantitative RT-PCR and treatments like 5-azacytidine to investigate the dysregulation of these miRNAs and their effects on cancer cell growth in different types of malignant GCTs.
- They found that replenishing levels of miR-100-5p and miR-125b-5p inhibited the growth of GCT cells and altered related signaling pathways, suggesting a potential therapeutic approach

The objective of the present manuscript was the evaluation of the toxicity and metabolism of the second generation of pyrovalerone cathinones (α-PHP, α-PHPiP, 4-MePPP and TH-PVP), using an early zebrafish (Danio rerio) larvae as in vivo model. Pyrovalerone cathinones LC were determined after 24, 48, 72 and 96 h of exposure. TH-PVP proved to be the most toxic cathinone, whereas 4-MePPP was the least toxic.

Egg storage is a common practice in commercial hatcheries, but prolonged storage can negatively impact hatchability, causing a significant problem for the poultry industry. Repeated pre-incubation could mitigate the decline depending on the age of the parent stock. The study investigated the interactions between parent stock age (30, 45, and 58 weeks) and repeated pre-incubation on the hatchability and embryo development of 15-day stored eggs from Ross 308 parent stock.

Article Synopsis
- * Limosilactobacillus reuteri-fermented yolk showed improved wettability from a porous particle structure, while Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus-fermented yolk had better stability from smaller particles and higher surface charge.
- * Fermentation altered the moisture content and bulk densities of the yolk powder, improving its solubility and emulsifying activity without changing its flow behavior or thermal stability.
