Introduction Methadone is the main replacement therapy for opioid addiction. However, due to a wide inter-individual variability, the effect of methadone may be different between individuals. This means the same dose given to two different […]
Background Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) represents the 15th most common cancer worldwide. About 20% of patients with renal cell carcinoma eventually develop liver metastasis (LM). Furthermore, the liver is the only site of distant spread […]
The search for bone regeneration materials and methods represents an ongoing challenge. One of the materials used in the bone regeneration is the eggshell. Its use in bone regeneration has a long history. The eggshell […]
Introduction Mercury is a toxic substance that is commonly used in skin-lightening products. Various effects on humans have been observed, which affect both users and non-users. Many cases reported delayed diagnosis and treatment, even after […]
In the article “The natural adaptive evolution of cancer: The metastatic ability of cancer cells” our authors analyze the literature regarding the ability of cancer cells to metastasize and propose a novel mechanism by which […]
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. […]
This article reviews in detail the superficial brachiomedian artery (arteria brachiomediana superficialis), a very rare variant of the main arterial trunks of the upper limb. It branches either from the axillary artery or the brachial […]
Biomaterials and biotechnology are increasing becoming an important area in modern medicine. The main aim in this area is the development of materials, which are biocompatible to normal tissue. Tissue-implant interactions with molecular, biological and […]

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 […]
