Endocytosis, required for the uptake of receptors and their ligands, can also introduce pathological aggregates such as α-synuclein (α-syn) in Parkinson's Disease. We show here the unexpected presence of intrinsically perforated endolysosomes in neurons, suggesting involvement in the genesis of toxic α-syn aggregates induced by internalized preformed fibrils (PFFs). Aggregation of endogenous α-syn in late endosomes and lysosomes of human iPSC-derived neurons (iNs), seeded by internalized α-syn PFFs, caused the death of the iNs but not of the parental iPSCs and non-neuronal cells.

Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a rapidly progressing condition with a high mortality rate. The poor prognosis is often due to delayed diagnosis, which is typically made clinically or radiologically. This case report highlights a rare instance of fulminant NF with an atypical presentation-no initial clinical signs and an unusual radiological appearance.

Peritoneal metastases synchronously occurring in the patient with primary colon cancer causes that patient to be at high risk for subsequent disease progression within the abdomen and pelvis. If peritoneal metastases are preoperatively diagnosed, patients are likely to be treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy with or without biological therapy prior to cytoreductive surgery (CRS). However, if one only considers patients with peritoneal metastases unexpectedly identified at the time of primary colon cancer resection, the optimal management strategy is neither standardized nor evidence based.
