Developmental changes in mesodermal activity to induce intestine-like differentiation expressing sucrase antigen in the endoderm and changes in endodermal reactivity to such an activity in the digestive tract of the chick embryo were analyzed. Digestive-tract endoderms of embryos at 3 days of incubation were highly responsive to the inductive effect of the 5 day duodenal mesenchyme, with the stomach endoderm lying nearest to the intestine having the highest reactivity. Endodermal reactivity decreased with increasing age. It was almost absent in the endoderm of the esophagus or proventriculus of 6 day embryos and in the endoderm of the gizzard of 7 day embryos. The activity of the mesoderm to induce intestine-like differentiation in 5 day gizzard endoderm was high in the 5-10 day duodenal mesenchyme, but was rarely found in 14 day duodenal mesenchyme. This activity was specific to intestinal mesenchymes, among which the duodenal mesenchyme had the highest activity in 5 day embryos. The 3 day intestinal mesenchyme may already have the inductive activity. The presumptive intestinal mesoderm of 1.5 day embryos seemed to have a slight or no activity, but it may have intestinal identity and may manifest a high inductive activity later.

To explore the therapeutic efficacies of three different doses of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell exosomes (hucMSC-EXO) on the injury of intestinal barrier structure and dysfunction in severely burned rats, and to identify the optimal dose of hucMSC-EXO for the repair of intestinal barrier injury. The hucMSC-EXO was isolated and identified by using an exosome extraction and purification kit. A total of 30 specific pathogen free (SPF) male Wistar rats (aged 6-8 weeks) were selected, and were randomly divided into five groups (=6) using a random number table: sham group, burn group, burn+100 μg hucMSC-EXO group (Burn+EXO100), burn+200 μg hucMSC-EXO group (Burn+EXO200), and burn+400 μg hucMSC-EXO group (Burn+EXO400).

Intussusception is a common and well-known surgical pathology. Intussusception in adults is rare, accounting for only 5% of all intussusceptions. Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are common mesenchymal tumors of the stomach that can act as a pathological lead point for intussusception.

Article Synopsis
- - Extraosseous Ewing sarcoma (EES) is a rare type of cancer that often mimics intestinal issues, primarily causing symptoms like intestinal obstruction, abdominal pain, and GI bleeding, leading to misdiagnosis.
- - A 29-year-old male presented with intestinal obstruction and was initially diagnosed as having an intestinal mesenchymal tumor, but post-surgery, he was confirmed to have Ewing sarcoma through pathology and genetic testing.
- - The patient underwent surgery to remove a large 15-cm tumor from his abdomen, which infiltrated nearby organs, and was subsequently treated with chemotherapy, illustrating the importance of accurate diagnosis and timely intervention for rare cancers.

CT-guided online adaptive radiotherapy (OART) is a novel and robust treatment technique in radiotherapy. Thanks to its excellent accommodation of inter-fraction variations, OART is characterized by superior accuracy compared to other contemporary treatment techniques in radiotherapy such as image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT). Planning target volume (PTV), which takes into account interfraction movements, could therefore be reduced while utilizing OART with a consequent dose reduction for adjacent healthy tissue.

Article Synopsis
- The small intestine and ampulla can develop various benign tumors and tumor-like diseases that may resemble cancer, highlighting the need for pathologists to have a comprehensive understanding of these conditions.
- Key examples of these benign issues include Brunner gland lesions, different types of polyps, and various mesenchymal proliferations like inflammatory fibroid polyps and leiomyomas.
- The review aims to clarify the histopathological features of these benign conditions to aid pathologists in making accurate diagnoses and differentiating them from malignant tumors.
