Transsphenoidal surgery (TSS) is a curative treatment for pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism, and its use in dogs has recently increased. One of the most serious postoperative complications of TSS is dyspnoea. We report three cases where transtracheal catheter oxygen therapy prevented death from respiratory distress secondary to enlarged soft palate after TSS.

Decoding Epilepsy: Prickle2 and Multifaceted Molecular Pathway Connections.

Curr Pharm Des

January 2025

Hubei Key Laboratory of Tumor Microenvironment and Immunotherapy, China Three Gorges University, Yichang, Hubei, China.

Background: The Prickle2 (Pk2) gene shows promising potential in uncovering the underlying causes of epilepsy, a neurological disorder that is currently not well understood. This paper utilizes the online tool PubMed to gather and condense information on the involvement of PCP channels and the associated roles of PCP pathway molecules in the onset of epilepsy. These findings are significant for advancing epilepsy treatment.

Rearrangements of cytokine receptor-like factor 2 gene (CRLF2) are present in ∼50% of B-lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (B-ALL) with BCR::ABL1-like features. Herein, we report three patients with CRLF2-rearranged mixed phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL). All three cases were B/myeloid MPAL in young patients harboring P2RY8::CRLF2 or IGH::CRLF2 with additional genomic alterations in signaling (JAK and RAS) and cell cycle (CDKN2A/B) pathways, a genomic profile similar to that in BCR::ABL1-like B-ALL.
