Background: Juvenile granulosa cell tumor (JGCT) of the ovary is a rare tumor with distinct clinicopathological and hormonal features primarily affecting young women and children. We conducted a complex clinicopathological, immunohistochemical, and molecular analysis of five cases of JGCT.
Methods: The immunohistochemical examination was performed with 32 markers, including markers that have not been previously investigated.

Objective: To explore the influence of SALL4 in cardiac fibroblasts on the progression of myocardial infarction.
Methods: Analysis of genes specifically expressed in myocardial infarction by bioinformatics methods; The impact of SALL4 on myocardial infarction was assessed using mouse ultrasound experiments and Masson staining; The effect of SALL4 on the expression levels of collagen-I and collagen-III in myocardial tissue was examined by immunohistochemical staining; The migration ability of cardiac fibroblasts was evaluated using a Transwell assay; The proliferative ability of cardiac fibroblasts was tested using a CCK-8 assay; The relative fluorescence intensity of α-SMA and CTGF in cardiac fibroblasts were checked through immunofluorescence staining experiment; The expression of SALL4, DOT1L, H3K79me2, P53, SHP2, YAP, nucleus-YAP, collagen-I, α-SMA, CTGF, and PAI-1 in myocardial tissues or cardiac fibroblasts was detected using western blot analysis.
Results: SALL4-specific high expression in myocardial infarction; SALL4 intensified the alterations in the heart structure of mice with myocardial infarction and worsened the fibrosis of myocardial infarction; SALL4 also promoted the expression of SALL4, DOT1L, H3K79me2, P53, SHP2, YAP, nucleus-YAP, collagen-I, collagen-III, α-SMA, CTGF, and PAI-1 in myocardial infarction tissues and cardiac fibroblasts; Subsequently, SALL4 could enhance the immunofluorescence intensity of α-SMA and CTGF; Moreover, SALL4 could promote the proliferation and migration of cardiac fibroblasts.

To investigate the clinicopathological features, immunophenotype, molecular characteristics, and differential diagnosis of primary intracranial DICER1-mutant sarcoma in order to better understand this tumor type. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 7 cases of primary intracranial DICER1-mutant sarcoma diagnosed in the Department of Pathology, Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center, Guangzhou, China between 2021 and 2023 using next-generation sequencing. At the same time, 10 gliosarcomas, 4 intracranial FET::CREB fusion-positive mesenchymal tumors, 4 malignant meningiomas, 3 malignant solitary fibrous tumors, 3 malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors, 3 synovial sarcomas and 3 rhabdomyosarcomas (total 30 cases) were selected as control.

Introduction: Ovarian yolk sac tumors after the menopause are very rare.
Case Presentation: We report an atypical case of yolk sac tumor in an octogenarian woman, who presented to the hospital with anasarca, ascites, toxic syndrome, and an abdominal mass. Serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels were highly increased (246,720 ng/mL), and malignant cells with positive AFP immunohistochemical expression were detected in a diagnostic paracentesis.
