https://www.selleckchem.com/pharmacological_epigenetics.html Primary hepatic carcinoma with inhibin positivity is a rare aggressive liver tumor with seven cases described. The tumor presents at a younger age than primary hepatic carcinoma with all cases being females. RNA albumin ISH positivity suggests the tumor to be a primary hepatic carcinoma. The tumor is different from hepatocellular carcinoma as well as intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma because of its distinct morphology, lack of hepatocellular differentiation, strong inhibin staining, and lack of typical mutations. A 26-year-old male presented with a 20-cm liver mass. The tumor progressed on therapy with development of multiple lung metastasis. Currently, the patient is enrolled in phase II clinical trial utilizing nivolumab and ipilumumab. While the tumor has a female preponderance, it is not exclusively found in females. Additional studies are necessary to determine the cause of inhibin staining, driving molecular alterations, natural history of this rare tumor, and to come up with consensus nomenclature.The immune microenvironment plays a pivotal role in cancer development and progression. Therefore, we studied the status of immune cells in esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) and adjacent Barrett's esophagus (BE) and their association with the clinical course of patients. We included 87 patients with EAC who underwent surgical resection or endoscopic submucosal dissection. CD3, CD8, Foxp3, p53, and Ki-67 were immunolocalized in EAC and adjacent BE (N = 87) and BE without EAC (N = 13). BE adjacent to EAC exhibited higher CD3+ lamina propria lymphocyte (LPL) numbers than BE without EAC. Abundant Foxp3+ LPLs in BE were associated with dysplasia and increased Ki-67 labeling index (LI) in BE glandular cells and tended to link to aberrant p53 expression. Abundant CD8+ LPLs in adjacent BE were associated with worse prognosis of EAC patients (P = 0.019). Results of our present study firstly revealed the potential influ
