A 77-year-old male underwent a colonoscopy because of a positive fecal occult blood test. A polyp was removed from the rectum, 12 cm from the anal margin, with a hyperplastic appearance, covered by a cap of whitish fibrinoid exudate. The pathological report reported a hyperplastic polyp with foci of bone metaplasia in the lamina propria.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disorder marked by pain, inflammation, and discomfort in the synovial joints. It is critical to understand the pathological mechanisms of RA progression. MicroRNA-378 (miR-378) is highly expressed in the synovium of RA patients and positively correlated with disease severity, but its function and underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood.

Osseous metaplasia of the endometrium is a rare condition involving the bone tissue in the endometrial cavity. Its presence along with haematometra is an infrequent condition and is not reported until now. We present a case of a woman in her mid-30s with primary infertility and secondary amenorrhoea.

Chronic infection with () is a major risk factor for gastric cancer. This work attempted to investigate the underlying mechanism of SLFN4 myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) in affecting gastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM). infection enhanced the expression of IFN-α and SLFN4, and activated JAK2/STAT1 signaling pathway in bone marrow cells or mouse gastric corpus.

- A chondroid syringoma is a rare, non-cancerous skin tumor that can have unique characteristics in its tissue makeup, sometimes causing confusion during diagnosis.
- This report details a case involving this tumor, with unusual bone formation, located on the right upper eyelid of a 60-year-old woman.
- The patient's tumor showed low levels of cell proliferation (Ki67 index) and after a 36-month follow-up, there was no sign of the tumor returning, highlighting the importance of recognizing this tumor's varied appearances to avoid misdiagnosis.

Article Synopsis
- Multiple myeloma (MM) is a type of cancer that affects plasma cells in the bone marrow and is heavily influenced by the surrounding cellular environment, particularly endothelial cells (ECs).
- A study used single-cell RNA sequencing to showcase differences between ECs from MM patients and healthy individuals, highlighting unique pathways activated in MM.
- The researchers successfully isolated and cultured endothelial progenitor cells from MM patients, showing these ECs can support myeloma cell growth and exhibit angiogenic properties, indicating a potential target for new treatments.
