Sarcoma is an uncommon neoplasm of mesenchymal origin (1). The presentation is usually vague. It may present as a mass in the thigh or retroperitoneum, with resultant pain or paresthesia of the affected area. The diagnosis is very challenging due to its indistinct presentation. The prognosis remains poor due to delays in diagnosis and few available therapeutic options. We herein report the first case of superior vena cava (SVC) syndrome caused by spindle cell sarcoma.

Unveiling the Movement of RanBP1 During the Cell Cycle and Its Interaction with a Cyclin-Dependent Kinase (CDK) in Plants.

Int J Mol Sci

December 2024

Departamento de Biologia, Faculdade de Filosofia, Ciências e Letras de Ribeirão Preto, Universidade de São Paulo, Ribeirão Preto 14040-901, SP, Brazil.

In the flower development study, we identified SCI1 (Stigma/style Cell-cycle Inhibitor 1), a regulator of cell proliferation. SCI1 interacts with NtCDKG;2 ( Cyclin-Dependent Kinase G;2), a homolog of human CDK11, which is responsible for RanGTP-dependent microtubule stabilization, regulating spindle assembly rate. In a Y2H screening of a cDNA library using NtCDKG;2 as bait, a RanBP1 (Ran-Binding Protein 1) was revealed as its interaction partner.

This report describes a rare occurrence of benign fibrous histiocytoma in the frontal sinus of a 38-year-old male. The patient presented with acute symptoms, including sudden-onset headache, nausea, and general discomfort, although neurological, otorhinolaryngological and laboratory examinations showed no abnormalities. A cranial CT scan revealed a cystic, osteodestructive lesion measuring 2.

The cell cycle oscillator and spindle length set the speed of chromosome separation in Drosophila embryos.

Curr Biol

Department of Cell Biology, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC 27705, USA; Duke Center for Quantitative Living Systems, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC 27710, USA. Electronic address:

Anaphase is tightly controlled spatiotemporally to ensure proper separation of chromosomes. The mitotic spindle, the self-organized microtubule structure driving chromosome segregation, scales in size with the available cytoplasm. Yet, the relationship between spindle size and chromosome movement remains poorly understood.

Diagnostic and Therapeutic Approach to Rare Tongue Lipoma.

J Craniofac Surg

January 2025

State Key Laboratory of Oral & Maxillofacial Reconstruction and Regeneration, Key Laboratory of Oral Biomedicine Ministry of Education, Hubei Key Laboratory of Stomatology, School & Hospital of Stomatology, Wuhan University.

Lipomas are benign soft tissue tumors composed of mature adipocytes, commonly found in subcutaneous tissues. Despite their prevalence in various body regions, they are relatively rare in the oral and maxillofacial regions. This study retrospectively analyzed the clinical and imaging characteristics, as well as the treatment outcomes of 57 patients diagnosed with lipoma.
