Published: April 2005

We report 3 cases of squamous cell carcinoma arising respectively after 30, 6 and 19 years of spontaneous evolution of cutaneous discoid lupus erythematosus. In each case the histopathologic examination confirmed the diagnosis of cutaneous lupus discoid and squamous cell carcinoma. As phagedenic ulcer which is the main preneoplastic dermatosis, discoid lupus erythematosis must be considered. The long duration before the cancerisation allows a correct treatment of the disease to prevent the transformation.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a chronic condition encompassing metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver (MASL) and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), which can progress to fibrosis, cirrhosis, or hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The heterogeneous and complex nature of MASLD complicates optimal drug development. Ebastine, an antihistamine, exhibits antitumor activity in various types of cancer.

Purpose: Low-dose CT (LDCT) screening effectively reduces lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) mortality. However, accurately evaluating the malignant potential of indeterminate lung nodules remains a challenge. Carcinoembryonic antigen cell adhesion molecule 6 (CEACAM6), a potential biomarker for distinguishing benign pulmonary nodules from LUAD, may be leveraged for noninvasive positron emission tomography (PET) imaging to aid LUAD diagnosis.

Hepatic fibroblasts comprise groups of stromal cells in the liver that are phenotypically distinct from hepatic stellate cells. However, their physiology is poorly understood. By single-cell RNA sequencing, we identified Cd34 and Dpt as hepatic fibroblast-specific genes.
