Sequential BMP7/TGF-β1 signaling and microbiota instruct mucosal Langerhans cell differentiation

2018

Capucha et al. demonstrate that mucosal Langerhans cell (LC) differentiation from pre–dendritic cells and monocytes involves consecutive BMP7 and TGF-β1 signaling in separate anatomical locations. Moreover, mucosal microbiota regulates the development of LCs that in turn shape microbial and immunological homeostasis.

5th International Symposium on Focused Ultrasound

2016

Introduction Breast fibroadenomata (FAD) are benign lesions which occur in about 10 % of all women. Diagnosis is made by triple assessment (physical examination, imaging and/or histopathology/cytology). For a definitive diagnosis of FAD, the treatment is conservative unless the patient is symptomatic. For symptomatic patients, the lumps can be surgically excised or removed interventionally by vacuum-assisted mammotomy (VAM). Ablative techniques like high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), cryo-ablation and laser ablation have also been used for the treatment of FAD, providing a minimally invasive treatment without scarring or poor cosmesis. This review summarises current trials using mini…
