Article Abstract
Background: Squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) are uncommon, high-grade tumors, predominantly composed of round cells in the prepuce. The aim of this study is to better define the clinicopathologic features of this neoplasm.
Case Report: We conducted cyto-histopathologic analysis on the manifestations of the prepuce SCC by H & E staining in a terrier mix dog. Grossly, tumor was large, multiple erythematous patch, and ulcerated masses frequently affecting the prepuce and deeply invading to distal prepuce out from the ventro-lateral of penis and the tumor covered by a necrotic discharge. Cytological evaluation of fine-needle aspirates from the cutaneous mass from the prepuce comprised of round nuclei, coarse chromatin pattern, distinct nucleoli and nuclear pleomorphism. Furthermore, the neoplastic cells were pleomorphic, round to caudate in shape, exhibiting prominent anisokaryosis and anisocytosis with rare mitotic features. Microscopically, the lesions were predominantly composed of atypical round cells disposed in interlacing fascicles. Frequent findings include keratin formation, horn pearls, mitoses and cellular atypia. The cells showed distinct borders, ranged from polygonal to round or elongate and had moderate amounts of eosinophilic cytoplasm.
Conclusion: The histopathologic features coupled with the cytopathology findings led to a diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first time that multiple erythematous plaques have undergone malignant transformation in a terrier mix dog.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most frequent type of oral malignancy with high metastasis and poor prognosis. The deubiquitinating enzyme Ubiquitin Specific Peptidase 44 (USP44) regulates the mitotic checkpoint, and its deficiency leads to aneuploidy and increases tumor incidence. However, the role of USP44 in OSCC is not well understood.

The Japanese Society of Oral Oncology and Japanese Society of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons have jointly developed clinical practice guidelines for oral cancer (oral squamous cell carcinoma) to improve and standardize the quality of oral cancer treatment in Japan. The first, second, and third editions were published in 2009, 2013, and 2019, respectively, and the 2023 edition was recently developed. In the development of the 2023 edition, 60 clinical questions (CQs) were listed.

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) are the most common type of head and neck tumor that severely threatens human health due to its highly aggressive nature and susceptibility to distant metastasis. The diagnosis of HNSCC currently relies on biopsy and histopathological examination of suspicious lesions. However, the early mucosal changes are subtle and difficult to detect by conventional oral examination.

This research was performed to investigate protective effects of carnosic acid on growth performance, intestinal barrier, and cecal microbiota of lipopolysaccharide-challenged broilers. Three hundred 1-day-old yellow-feathered broilers (male) were allocated randomly into 5 treatments, with 6 replicates per treatment, and 10 birds per replicate cage. Birds in both the control group (CON) and the lipopolysaccharide-challenged group were provided with a basal diet, while others were fed a basal diet supplemented with 20, 40, and 60 mg/kg carnosic acid (CA20, CA40, CA60), respectively.

Objective: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a public health concern. The current study aimed to explore the role of circRNA Dedicator of Cytokinesis 1 (circ_DOCK1) and associated action mode in OSCC.
Methods: The expression of circ_DOCK1 and microRNA-1297 (miR-1297) was measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR).
