Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a rare disease characterised by excessive accumulation of surfactant components in alveolar macrophages, alveoli, and peripheral airways. The accumulation of surfactant is associated with only a minimal inflammatory response but can lead to the development of pulmonary fibrosis. Three clinical forms of PAP are distinguished - primary, secondary and congenital.

Over the past century, numerous methods for assessing cell viability have been developed, and there are many different ways to categorize these methods accordingly. We have chosen to use the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) classification due to its regulatory importance. The OECD categorizes these methods into four groups: non-invasive cell structure damage, invasive cell structure damage, cell growth, and cellular metabolism.

Mammalian pre-implantation development is entirely devoted to the specification of extra-embryonic lineages, which are fundamental for embryo morphogenesis and support. The second fate decision is taken just before implantation, as defined by the epiblast (EPI) and the primitive endoderm (PE) specification. Later, EPI forms the embryo proper and PE contributes to the formation of the yolk sac.

Despite the great advancements in treatment strategies for hematological malignancies (HMs) over the years, their effective treatment remains challenging. Conventional treatment strategies are burdened with several serious drawbacks limiting their effectiveness and safety. Improved understanding of tumor immunobiology has provided novel anti-cancer strategies targeting selected immune response components.

Zinner syndrome is an extremely uncommon congenital anomaly of the male urogenital tract. It is attributed to an embryological anomaly that arises in the distal segment of the mesonephric or Wolffian duct. It is the inadequate migration of the ureteric bud that contributes to the failure of differentiation of the metanephric blastema, which ultimately results in ipsilateral renal agenesis and atresia of the ejaculatory duct.
