Lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma (LELC) of esophagus is an extremely rare tumor only a few cases were successfully treated with endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). We herein report one case of superficial esophageal LELC with adjacent squamous intraepithelial neoplasia successfully treated by ESD, and the status of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection and microsatellite instability (MSI) were detected simultaneously. A 71-year-old woman presented with complaints of substernal discomfort. Under endoscopy, a dome-shaped bulge of 1.2 cm × 0.8 cm was located at the mucosal lamina propria in the left lateral wall of the middle esophagus, and the mucosa covering the bulge was smooth and normal-appearing. A brownish lesion was found adjacent to the bulge. Microscopically, the tumor was well demarcated, and nests of syncytial epithelioid cells were identified in the lamina propria of the mucosa, with a large number of inflammatory cells. The squamous epithelium covering the surface of the infiltrating tumor and the second brownish lesion demonstrated low grade squamous intraepithelial neoplasia. Tumor tissue showed CK5/6, p63, and p40 positive staining, was EBV negative, and had microsatellite stability. After treatment with ESD, this patient received no further treatment, and had no recurrence or metastasis at 25-month follow-up.Colorectal cancer has a low probability of metastasizing to the skin, usually less then 6%, and the common sites of metastasis are the liver and lungs. Skin metastases usually occur within 2 years of the discovery of the primary tumor. Here we report a case in which the skin lesions were mainly characterized by unilateral scattered papules and "fake blisters". The patient was initially misdiagnosed with lymphoma and was ultimately diagnosed with metastatic colorectal cancer through pathology.
  (hyperplasia suppressor gene, also named 
  ) gene polymorphisms have been studied as a candidate gene in essential hypertension, but no clear consensus has been reached in the Chinese population. To systematically explore their possible association, a case-control study was conducted in a central Chinese population.
 
  We recruited 402 EH patients and 267 normotensive (NT) control subjects. A total of 6 tag SNPs of HSG gene were genotyped successfully by TaqMan assay. The results showed that genotype distribution and the allelic frequency of rs873457, rs2236384, rs4846085, and rs1474868 in the EH and NT groups were significantly different (P < 0.05), although those of rs2295281 and rs17037564 were not. rs2336384, rs873457, rs4846085 and rs1474868 were also closely associated with EH under the dominant genetic model (P < 0.05). Gender-based subgroup analyses showed that significant associations between rs873457, rs2336384, rs4846085, and rs1474868 and EH could be found in males, but not in females. Haplotype analysis indicated that the C-G-T-T-T-G haplotype was positively correlated with EH.
 
  Our study suggested that 
  gene polymorphisms were significantly associated with EH in a central Han Chinese population, especially in male subjects.

  To analyze the clinical and molecular characteristics, as well as pathologic diagnosis and treatment of lung tumors that spread to the breast in 22 Chinese patients.
 
  A systematic literature search of PubMed, Embase, ScienceDirect, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Chinese Science and Technology Journal Database and Wanfang Databases was conducted to identify the related studies published before March 31, 2020. A case of a 64-year-old man who underwent pneumonectomy and who was eventually diagnosed with a breast lump 5 years after surgery at our hospital, was also included in the present study. We analyzed the clinical and immunohistochemical characteristics from these case reports.
 
  The analysis totally incorporates 21 case reports and our own case, covering 22 subjects. Among all cases we found 11 adenocarcinomas, 7 small-cell carcinomas, and 4 squamous carcinomas.  https://www.selleckchem.com/products/r-hts-3.html  In addition, most of metastatic breast masses were located below or near the nipple, rather than in the outer quadrant. The results of immunohistochemistry mostly showed triple negative breast cancers.
 
  A lung cancer patient with a breast tumor should suggest the possibility of metastasis. It is extremely difficult to distinguish secondary breast cancer from primary simply through medical observation and pathologic testing. Additional immunohistochemical examinations are necessary to avoid delays in diagnosis and treatment.

However, the functional effect of SNCG on the development of bladder cancer remains unknown. In the present study, the effects of SNCG down-regulation by RNA interference (RNAi) on the proliferation and invasiveness of human bladder cancer cell line 5637 were explored. Three pairs of SNCG-specific small interference RNA (siRNA) were designed and transfected into the 5637 cell lines, and then the SNCG expressions in the three siRNA were assessed using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reactions (RT-PCR) and Western blot, while the cell proliferation and invasiveness of the 5637 cells were evaluated using cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) and transwell assays, respectively. In addition, the expressions of matrix metalloproteinase-2 and -9 (MMP-2/9) were analyzed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays after the down-regulation of SNCG. The results showed that compared with the negative and empty vector controls, all three SNCG siRNAs were observed to significantly inhibit the SNCG expressions at the mRNA and protein levels (P less then 0.05), among which the lowest SNCG expression was measured in SNCG-siRNA-244. And the SNCG suppression mediated by RNAi successfully inhibited the proliferation and invasiveness of the 5637 cell lines (P less then 0.05), as well as the down-regulation of MMP-2/9. In conclusion, the proliferation and invasiveness of bladder cancer cells can be decreased by specifically interfering with the SNCG expression. And SNCG siRNA deserves further study as a novel target for biomedical therapy in bladder cancer.
