이 연구는 가시입이형흡충 감염에 의한 초기 장병변을 관찰하기 위하여 수행되었다. 감염 1일부터 7일까지 가시입이형흡충은 십이지장과 공장의 융모간극 최하부에서 관찰되었다 괴낭유충 1.000개와 5.000개 감염군 사이에 병변의 정도 차이는 인정되지 않았다. 충체 둘레에 있는 융모 기질에 가벼운 부종과 염증세포침윤이 있었다. 감염 4일에 선와는 경도의 과증식을 보였으며 융모는 중등도고 위축된 소견을 보였나 장병변은 충체 주위에 국한되었으며 광범위하게 확산되지 않았다. 따라서 장병변은 가시입흡충의 장상피세포에 대한 기계적으로 손상으로 인하여 야기되었나고 생각된다.

Tumors are dynamic metabolic systems which highly augmented metabolic fluxes and nutrient needs to support cellular proliferation and physiological function. For many years, a central hallmark of tumor metabolism has emphasized a uniformly elevated aerobic glycolysis as a critical feature of tumorigenecity. This led to extensive efforts of targeting glycolysis in human cancers. However, clinical attempts to target glycolysis and glucose metabolism have proven to be challenging. Recent advancements revealing a high degree of metabolic heterogeneity and plasticity embedded among various human cancers may paint a new picture of metabolic targeting for cancer therapies with a renewed interest in glucose metabolism. In this review, we will discuss diverse oncogenic and molecular alterations that drive distinct and heterogeneous glucose metabolism in cancers. We will also discuss a new perspective on how aberrantly altered glycolysis in response to oncogenic signaling is further influenced and remodeled by dynamic metabolic interaction with surrounding tumor-associated stromal cells.

Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) is a relatively rare and moderately aggressive type of vascular tumor. We describe a case of EHE that presented in a 24-year-old woman as a palpable nodule in the left cervical area. Radiological examinations and fine-needle aspiration cytology led to a preliminary diagnosis of metastatic lymphadenopathy with an unknown primary site. However, during surgery, we determined that the nodule was an intra-vascular tumor arising from the left internal jugular vein. The histopathological examination revealed cords of epithelioid endothelial cells distributed in a hyaline stroma, compatible with a diagnosis of EHE.

Glandular papilloma of the lung is one of three histologic types of solitary endobronchial papillomas. It is known as an uncommon benign neoplasm. No malignant glandular papillomas have been reported. Herein, the first case of granular papilloma with malignant transformation is reported. A 74-year-old man with huge right lung mass extended upper and lower lobe was admitted to the hospital complaining of progressive cough and dyspnea. An open lung biopsy was performed. Microscopically, the tumor showed papillary growth pattern with thick fibrovascular cores. The stroma of the fibrovascular cores shown the infiltration of lymphoplasmacytic cells and proliferation of capillaries. The epithelial cells surrounding the papillary fronds were cilliated columnar cells with focal cellar atypia, and frequent mitoses. Suspicious pleural invasion foci were identified. The Ki-67 labeling index was about 24.3% and p53 labeling index was about 31.7%. Glandular papilloma is known as a benign neoplasm, which is lack of atypia and mitosis. In present case, there were several indications of malignant transformation, such as cellular atypia, frequent mitosis, architectural distortion, and pleural invasion. Pathologists must be aware that glandular papilloma can have a changes of malignant transformation. Further studies about disease behavior and molecular characteristics are needed.

본 연구는 광학현미경과 전자현미경을 사용해서 자외선을 사용하는 클린벤치에서 각막에 대한 자외선 조사의 영향을 측정하기 위해서 생쥐에 대해 실험을 수행하였다. 결과는 다음과 같다. 대조군에서 각막조직은 비교적 치밀하고, 각 층은 잘 확인되며, 각막의 두께는 일정하였다. 증가하는 실험시간에서 실험의 결과는 매우 차이가 있었다. 초기실험군의 경과들에서는 심하게 변성이 되었다. 그러나 얼마의 기질층들은 종대되고, 얼마의 상피조직은 정상의 모양이 아니었다. 중간실험군들의 결과들은 기질의 심한 종대, 일부지역의 소포, 상피의 응축, 내피의 불규칙한 배열이 있었다. 마지막 실험군의 결과에서는 각막조직의 위축, 내피조직의 종대와 공포화 상피의 부분적인 파괴, 각막조직의 불규칙적인 두께가 있었다.

Purpose: Nerve sheath myxoma is a rare cutaneous neoplasm originating from the peripheral nerve sheath and divided into three groups : myxoid, cellular and mixed type. There is a controversy on it's origin whether schwannian cell or perineurial differentiation, or anything else. Myxoid nerve sheath myxoma is asymptomatic, soft, papule or nodule in middle-age adults. We report a case of myxoid nerve sheath myxoma on the fingertip. Methods: A 53-year-old woman presented with a painful, $0.4{\times}0.4{\times}0.6\;cm $sized, corn shaped nodule on the left 3rd fingertip. We put into surgical excision and studied it by histopathologically and specific immnohistochemical stain. Results: The tumor has well defined nodules separated by thin fibrous connective tissue with abundant myxoid stroma and were positively stainded for S-100 protein, NSE and GFAP. After surgical treatment it was healed without recurrence. Conclusion: Nerve sheath myxoma is rare neoplasm and located mainly on face, but very rarely on the fingertip. We report a case of painful myxoid nerve sheath myxoma located on the 3rd fingertip.

This study was conducted to evaluate three different mixed formulations of sodium hyaluronate (SH) and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) using a low-humidity air flow-induced rat dry eye model and determine the most suitable mixture. The total thickness of the cornea, corneal epithelial thickness, corneal stroma thickness, damaged corneal epithelium percentage region, thickness of the bulbar conjunctiva epithelium, number of goblet cells, goblet cell occupation percentage region, and damaged bulbar conjunctiva epithelium percentage region were measured by histomorphological evaluation. After 5 h exposure to drying airflow, the thickness of the cornea and conjunctiva was decreased with desquamation of the corneal and conjunctiva epithelium. However, these dry eye symptoms were markedly inhibited by treatment with the reference and test formulations. More favorable effects on decreased thickness were detected in response to the CMC than the SH. However, SH had a greater protective effect against corneal and conjunctiva epithelial damage. The application of a mixture of 0.1% SH and 0.2% CMC showed more favorable effects on the corneal and conjunctival damage and the stabilization of the ocular surface than SH or CMC alone.

Mucious cystic neoplasm of pancreas is a cystic neoplasm composed of columnar, mucin-producing epithelium and is supported by ovarian-type stroma. The key to the cytologic evaluation of pancreatic cystic lesions is to recognize the cytologic components as being diagnostic of a mucin-producing cystic neoplasm, as all of these neoplasms need to be resected. We report the use of fine needle aspiration cytology in the diagnosis of an invasive mucinous cystic carcinoma confirmed by partial pancreatectomy. The cytologic specimen showed a abundant mucin background and sheets or papillae of neoplastic cells. There are mucin-containing columnar cells that show a variable degree of cytologic atypia.

Bronchogenic cysts are thought to be uncommon developmental anomalies. They develop from small buds or diverticuli that separate from the foregut in the formation of the tracheo-bronchial tree. They are nearly always located near the tracheal bifurcation; However, these lesions can occur anywhere along the tracheo-bronchial tree. We experienced a case of cervical bronchogenic cyst presenting sorely as an anterior neck mass in a 26-year-old woman. The neck ultrasonography showed as $1.4{\times}1.1cm$ sized hypoechoic lesion with a well-defined margin on the isthmic portion of the thyroid gland. Excision of the mass was carried out. The mass was superfical to the strap muscle and was contained within the subcutaneous tissue in the midline without any connection to the trachea. Grossly, the mass was an oval-shaped cystic lesion which measured 1.5 cm in the greatest diameter. The cyst was filled with thick, yellow, jelly-like material and the inner surface was smooth and glistening. Microscopically, the cyst showed a lining of ciliated columnar epithelium, beneath which was a loose areolar stroma containing plaques of mucous glands and mature cartilage. We thought this cervical bronchogenic cyst appeared to represent an expression of complete aberrent accessory lung bud detachment from the primitive foregut.
