Published: December 1990

We report a case of linear basal cell nervus occurring on the thigh of a forty-five-year-old woman. In this lesion, the characteristic comedones were absent. Linear basal cell nevus is a rare, benign condition that must be differentiated from both basal cell nevus syndrome and linear basal cell carcinoma, either of which can be locally aggressive.

Introduction: The autoantibody-driven disease pemphigus vulgaris (PV) impairs desmosome adhesion in the epidermis. In desmosomes, the pemphigus autoantigens desmoglein 1 (Dsg1) and Dsg3 link adjacent cells. Dsgs are clustered by plaque proteins and linked to the keratin cytoskeleton by desmoplakin (Dp).

Eccrine acrospiromas, also known as hidradenomas, are rare benign tumors that develop from the eccrine sweat glands. Hidradenoma is a multilobular, nonencapsulated, well-circumscribed dermal nodule that may involve the epidermis and extend into the subcutaneous fat. The etiology and prevalence of nodular hidradenoma are not well defined, but it is noted that it can occur spontaneously or traumatically.

Background: Cell-free regenerative strategies, such as notochordal cell (NC)-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs), are an attractive alternative in developing new therapies for intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration. NC-EVs have been reported to elicit matrix anabolic effects on nucleus pulposus cells from degenerated IVDs cultured under basal conditions. However, the degenerative process is exacerbated by pro-inflammatory cytokines contributing to the vicious degenerative cycle.

Objective: This study aimed to compare the expression of lymphoid enhancer factor 1 (LEF1) and β-catenin in basal cell adenoma (BA), desmoid-type fibromatosis (DF), and pancreatic solid pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN) to evaluate their diagnostic utility in tumors associated with the WNT/β-catenin signaling pathway harboring the mutation of CTNNB1 gene 3 exon.

Methods: Eighty tumor patients, including 26 BAs, 30 DFs, and 24 SPNs, were analyzed. Immunohistochemical staining was identified positive (nuclear staining of LEF1 and β-catenin in > 50% of tumor cells).
