Trichilemmal carcinoma (TC) is a rare malignant cutaneous adnexal neoplasm originating from the outer root sheath of hair follicles, which occurs commonly in sun-exposed areas of the elderly. Here, we introduce a case of a 24-year-old woman with TC on her scalp.
Fusobacterium nucleatum
colonization contributes to the occurrence of portal vein thrombosis in patients with gastric cancer (GC). However, the underlying mechanism by which
F. nucleatum
promotes thrombosis remains unclear. In this study, we recruited a total of 91 patients with GC and examined the presence of
F. nucleatum
in tumor and adjacent non-tumor tissues by fluorescence
in situ
hybridization and quantitative PCR. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) were detected by immunohistochemistry.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
