متن کاملThorax closure in Drosophila: involvement of Fos and the JNK pathway.
Dorsal closure, a morphogenetic movement during Drosophila embryogenesis, is controlled by the Drosophila JNK pathway, D-Fos and the phosphatase Puckered (Puc). To identify principles of epithelial closure processes, we studied another cell sheet movement that we term thorax closure, the joining of the parts of the wing imaginal discs which give rise to the adult thorax during metamorphosis. In...

متن کاملInterventional techniques in the thorax.
Transthoracic needle biopsy (TNB) has become the diagnostic procedure of choice in evaluation of focal chest lesions. Both advances in cross-sectional image guidance and cytopathologic techniques allow TNB to accurately diagnose malignancy and characterize a spectrum of benign conditions. Image-guided percutaneous drainage of intrathoracic collections has developed as an extension of similar pr...
متن کاملLeukemic Ischemia: A Case of Myocardial Infarction Secondary to Leukemic Cardiac Involvement
We report a case of a 39-year-old male who presented to the emergency department with acute chest pain while being in remission from T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). Cardiac markers were elevated and EKG revealed ischemic changes compatible with acute myocardial ischemia. Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) showed calcium-free coronary arteries and soft tissue myocardial...
