We report an 18-year-old male who presented with a two-month history of a lesion over his right forearm with a one-week history of sudden increase in size associated with pain. General and systemic examinations were normal. Dermatological examination revealed a single tender, well-defined, pearly white to erythematous, dome-shaped nodule of approximately 6mm x 5mm x 5mm with central umbilication and surrounding erythema.

One of the most significant bacteriophage technologies is phage display, in which heterologous peptides are exhibited on the virion surface. This work describes the display of λ decorative protein D linked to the E protein domain III of Zika virus (D-ZE), to the GFP protein (D-GFP), or to different domain III epitopes of the E protein (D-TD), exhibited on the surface of an in vitro evolved lambda phage (λ). This phage harbors a gene D deletion and was subjected to directed evolution using Escherichia coli W3110/pD-ZE as background.

Parkinson's disease (PD), a neurodegenerative disorder without cure, is characterized by the pathological aggregation of α-synuclein (α-Syn) in Lewy bodies. Classic deposition pathway and condensation pathway contribute to α-Syn aggregation, and liquid-liquid phase separation is the driving force for condensate formation, which subsequently undergo liquid-solid phase separation to form toxic fibrils. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has a long history in treating neurodegenerative disease, herein; we identified chemicals from herbs that inhibit α-Syn aggregation.

Immature pituitary-specific transcription factor 1 (PIT1)-lineage pituitary neuroendocrine tumors are composed of PIT1-lineage cells with cytological atypia and limited differentiation. These tumors are rare and no cytological features of this neoplasm have been reported. This study is the first to report the cytological features of an immature PIT1-lineage tumor.
