« Fausses et autres » artérites temporales
2021
Resume L’arterite a cellules geantes (ACG) est la plus frequente des vascularites affectant l’artere temporale (AT). Neanmoins, d’autres types de pathologies vasculaires, qu’il s’agisse de vascularite ou non, peuvent toucher l’AT. Parmi les vascularites, on peut citer les vascularites necrosantes, en particulier les vascularites associees aux anticorps anti-cytoplasme des polynucleaires neutrophiles (ANCA) qui peuvent affecter les petits vaisseaux peri-adventitiels de la paroi de l’AT et mimer certains symptomes de l’ACG, ces derniers n’etant generalement pas isoles, ce qui doit faire rechercher les ANCA. Certaines vascularites infectieuses peuvent egalement toucher l’AT comme l’infection p…
Specific norovirus interaction with Lewis x and Lewis a on human intestinal inflammatory mucosa during refractory inflammatory bowel disease
2021
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), are progressive diseases affecting millions of people each year. Flare-ups during IBD result in severe mucosal alterations of the small intestine (in CD) and in the colon and rectum (in CD and UC).
Automatic Evaluation of Histological Prognostic Factors Using Two Consecutive Convolutional Neural Networks on Kidney Samples
2022
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The prognosis of patients undergoing kidney tumor resection or kidney donation is linked to many histologic criteria. These criteria notably include glomerular density, glomerular volume, vascular luminal stenosis, and severity of interstitial fibrosis/tubular atrophy. Automated measurements through a deep-learning approach could save time and provide more precise data. This work aimed to develop a free tool to automatically obtain kidney histologic prognostic features. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS: In total, 241 samples of healthy kidney tissue were split into three independent cohorts. The “Training” cohort (n=65) was used to train two convoluti…
Pathology of Rotavirus-driven Multiple Organ Failure in a 16-month-old Boy
2019
International audience; Autopsy investigation of a fatal case of rotavirus severe acute gastroenteritis and multiple organ failure in a 16-month boy with previous intrauterine growth retardation showed colocalization of nonstructural and structural rotavirus proteins within viroplasms in nephrons. This case brings new insights into extraintestinal rotavirus infection and new clues to its abilities to bind to human histo-blood group antigens.
Cardiomyopathy due to PRDM16 mutation: First description of a fetal presentation, with possible modifier genes
2020
PRDM16 (positive regulatory domain 16) is localized in the critical region for cardiomyopathy in patients with deletions of chromosome 1p36, as defined by Gajecka et al., American Journal of Medical Genetics, 2010, 152A, 3074-3083, and encodes a zinc finger transcription factor. We present the first fetal case of left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC) with a PRDM16 variant. The third-trimester obstetric ultrasound revealed a hydropic fetus with hydramnios and expanded hypokinetic heart. After termination of pregnancy, foetopathology showed a eutrophic fetus with isolated cardiomegaly. Endocardial fibroelastosis was associated with non-compaction of the myocardium of the left ventricle. Exom…
Norovirus-Host Interactions in the course of Inflammatory Bowel Disease
2021
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) affects around 200,000 people in France. This group of conditions includes Crohn's disease (CD), which involves the entire digestive tract, and ulcerative colitis (UC), which involves only the colon and rectum. It is known that immunological, genetic and microbiological factors are at play in IBD, but the role of viruses remains only partially explored. Among viral etiologies, human noroviruses (huNoV) are the main cause of acute viral gastroenteritis worldwide. Norovirus binds to intestinal cells through histo-blood group antigens (HBGA), including ABO and Lewis antigens. The expression of HBGA is dependent upon tissue type and the underlying physiopatholog…
