NDRG1-PLAG1 and TRPS1-PLAG1 Fusion Genes in Chondroid Syringoma

PLAG1 fusion oncogenes in lipoblastoma.

Lipoblastomas are pediatric neoplasms resulting from transformation of adipocytes. These benign tumors are typically composed of adipose cells in different stages of maturation within a variably myxoid matrix, and they contain clonal rearrangements of chromosome band 8q12. Because lipoblastomas resemble embryonic adipose tissue, characterization of their transforming mechanisms might reveal bio...

Chondroid Syringoma on Face

Chondroid syringoma is a rare mixed tumor of the skin which is composed of both mesenchymal and epithelial cells. Its incidence at less than 0.1% and is frequently located on the head and neck. Chondroid syringoma is easily confused with epidermal cysts. Since malignant forms of chondroid syringoma have been reported, accurate and timely diagnosis is important for proper management. We report c...

PLAG1 and NCAPG‐LCORL in livestock

A recent progress on stature genetics has revealed simple genetic architecture in livestock animals in contrast to that in humans. PLAG1 and/or NCAPG-LCORL, both of which are known as a locus for adult human height, have been detected for association with body weight/height in cattle and horses, and for selective sweep in dogs and pigs. The findings indicate a significant impact of these loci o...

Chondroid Syringoma: A case with unusual localization Chondroid Syringoma: Nadir lokalizasyonlu bir olgu

Chondroid syringoma miks kutanöz tümör olarak adlandırılan benign karakterde bir cilt tümörüdür. Chondroid syringoma klinik olarak yavaş büyüyen, ağrısız, ülsere olmayan, subkutanöz veya intrakutanöz 0,5 ila 3 cm arasında boyutlara sahip nodul şeklinde görülür. Chondroid syringoma genellikle baş boyun bölgesinde orta yaş ve yaşlı erkeklerde görülür. Nadir olarak gövde, sırt, ekstremiteler ve ge...
