Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor in the world, and its metastasis is the main cause of death in breast cancer patients. However, the differences between primary breast cancer tissue and lymphatic node, bone, and brain metastases at the single-cell level are not fully understood. We analyzed the microenvironment heterogeneity in samples of primary breast cancer (n = 4), breast cancer lymphatic node metastasis (n = 4), breast cancer brain metastasis (n = 3), and breast cancer bone metastasis (n = 2) using single-cell sequencing data from the GEO database.

BACKGROUND Neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) of the cervix is rare and has high mortality and recurrence rates. The clinical symptoms of cervical NEC, such as abnormal vaginal bleeding and discharge, are similar to those of other cervical cancers. Here, we describe a case involving a 42-year-old woman with cervical NEC accompanied by an isolated large ovarian metastasis.

Objectives: External quality assessment (EQA) programs play a pivotal role in harmonizing laboratory practices, offering users a benchmark system to evaluate their own performance and identify areas requiring improvement. The objective of this study was to go through and analyze the UK NEQAS "Immunology, Immunochemistry and Allergy" EQA reports between 2012 and 2021 to assess the overall level of harmonization in autoimmune diagnostics and identify areas requiring improvement for future actions.
Methods: The EQA programs reviewed included anti-nuclear (ANA), anti-dsDNA, anti-centromere, anti-extractable nuclear antigen (ENA), anti-phospholipids, anti-neutrophil cytoplasm (ANCA), anti-proteinase 3 (PR3), anti-myeloperoxidase (MPO), anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM), rheumatoid factor (RF), anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA), mitochondrial (AMA), liver-kidney-microsomal (LKM), smooth muscle (ASMA), APCA, and celiac disease antibodies.

Endocannabinoids have been shown to play a complex role in the pathophysiology of a number of cardiovascular disorders. In the present study, the effects of the two major endocannabinoids anandamide (AEA) and 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) were investigated in human coronary artery smooth muscle cells (HCASMC) and human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAEC) with regard to potential atheroprotective and anti-inflammatory effects. In HCASMC, AEA showed an inhibitory effect on platelet-derived growth factor-induced migration, but not proliferation, independent of major cannabinoid-activatable receptors (CB, CB, TRPV1), while 2-AG left both responses unaffected.
