CK 20‐positive and CK 7‐negative Merkel cell carcinoma of the cheek
Merkel cell carcinomas (MCCs) are uncommon, highly malignant skin tumors that develop in sun-exposed areas of the skin. Most of the MCCs are CK 20-positive and CK 7-negative such as our case. About 80% of Merkel cell carcinoma is associated with Merkel cell polyomavirus.
متن کاملMacro-CK and CK-BB Contributing to Sham CK-MB Elevation
A 65-year-old man in whom an inferior vena cava filter had been implanted for deep vein thrombosis was admitted to the cardiology department due to appetite loss and lumbago. Laboratory data showed increased total creatinine kinase (CK, 796 U/L, Picture 1, left) and CK-MB (1,213 U/ L), which exceeded the total CK value. Electrophoresis showed, in addition to an increase in CK-BB, a peak that mi...
متن کاملA novel platform for detection of CK+ and CK- CTCs.
UNLABELLED Metastasis is a complex, multistep process that begins with the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Circulating tumor cells (CTC) are believed to have undergone EMT and thus lack or express low levels of epithelial markers commonly used for enrichment and/or detection of such cells. However, most current CTC detection methods target only EpCAM and/or cytokeratin (CK) to enrich e...
متن کاملCirculating CK-MB and CK-BB isoenzymes after prostate resection.
We studied the effect of prostate resection on serum creatine kinase (EC 2.7.3.2) and lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27) isoenzymes in 22 patients. Two hours after their operations, two-thirds of these patients had increased total creatine kinase activity. The MB isoenzyme was demonstrated in sera of 66% of the patients and the BB isoenzyme in 76%. MB content varied from 1 to 7% of total creat...
متن کاملCirculating CK-MB and CK-BB isoenzyme after gastrointestinal surgery.
The effect of gastrointestinal surgery on serum creatine kinase activity was studied in 30 patients. The MB isoenzyme was demonstrated in sera of 30% of the patients and BB isoenzyme in 23%. MB content varied from 0.8 to 10.3% of the total creatine kinase activity, and the BB content from 0.6 to 18.4%. The CK-BB was probably of gastrointestinal origin, since gastrointestinal tract contains high...
