Castleman disease (CD) describes a group of three rare and poorly understood lymphoproliferative disorders that have heterogeneous clinical symptoms and common lymph node histopathological features. Unicentric CD (UCD) involves a single region of enlarged nodes. […]
Apocrine carcinoma of the breast is a rare, primary breast cancer characterized by the apocrine morphology, estrogen receptor-negative and androgen receptor-positive profile with a frequent overexpression of Her-2/neu protein. The frequent presence of PIK3CA mutations […]
Trefoil factor family (TFF) peptides have been investigated for the last 35 years, mostly in the context of gastrointestinal mucosa, where they are secreted the most. They exert a protective role in the mucosa by […]
Evidence from animal and human research suggests that the encephalic opioid system is involved in drug addiction. In this study, we recruited 763 unrelated people (465 women, 298 men). Participants filled a 35-item questionnaire on […]

Despite substantial similarities in embryological, cellular and molecular biology features, human and mouse prostates differ in organ morphology and tissue architecture. Thus, a clear understanding of the anatomy and histology of the mouse prostate is […]
Pancreatic islet α-cell tumours that overexpress proglucagon are typically associated with the glucagonoma syndrome, a rare disease entity characterised by necrolytic migratory erythema, impaired glucose tolerance, thromboembolic complications and psychiatric disturbances. Paraneoplastic phenomena associated with […]
