  Breast reduction mammaplasty (RMP)
  Breast reduction mammaplasty (RMP) for symptomatic macromastia or correction of asymmetry is performed in more than 100 000 patients per year in the United States.
  The reported incidence of significant pathologic findings (SPF), that is, carcinoma and atypical hyperplasia, ranges from 0.06% to 12.8%. No standard pathology assessment for RMP exists.

  These lesions vary in prevalence from common (thyroglossal duct cyst , branchial cleft cyst , and cystic hygroma ) to very rare (thymic cyst and cervical bronchogenic cyst ). The absolute number remains unknown.

• stress granules

  21 August

  Stress Granule
  Cytoplasmic stress granules (SGs) are critical for facilitating stress responses and for preventing the accumulation of misfolded proteins.
  Oxidative stress is one of the conditions that induce SG formation. SGs regulate redox levels, and SG formation in turn is differently regulated by various types of oxidative stress.
  Pathology
  SGs have been linked to the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases, in part because SGs share many components with neuronal granules. (...)

  20 August

  Pathology
  Metabolomic and Lipidomic Profiling Identifies The Role of the RNA Editing Pathway in Endometrial Carcinogenesis. ADAR2 is overexpressed in EC and that the increase in expression positively correlates with the aggressiveness of the tumor. Furthermore, silencing of ADAR2 in three EC cell lines resulted in a decreased proliferation rate, increased apoptosis, and reduced migration capabilities in vitro. ADAR2 functions as an oncogene in endometrial carcinogenesis and could be a (...)

  WKP
  Definition: Alternaria is a genus of ascomycete fungi. Alternaria species are known as major plant pathogens. They are also common allergens in humans, growing indoors and causing hay fever or hypersensitivity reactions that sometimes lead to asthma. They readily cause opportunistic infections in immunocompromised people such as AIDS patients.
