The Retinoblastoma Gene01:20

The Retinoblastoma Gene

4.9K
Tumor suppressor genes are normal genes that can slow down cell division, repair DNA mistakes, or program the cells for apoptosis in case of irreparable damage. Hence, they play an essential role in preventing the proliferation of damaged cells.
The first-ever tumor suppressor gene called Rb was identified in retinoblastoma - a rare eye tumor in children. In inherited forms of the disease, a child inherits one defective copy of the Rb gene, which predisposes them to retinoblastoma. However,...

Rous Sarcoma Virus (RSV) and Cancer

6.5K
Rous Sarcoma virus or RSV was discovered by F. Peyton Rous in the year 1911 as a filterable transmissible agent that could cause tumors in chickens. He won a Nobel Prize for this discovery in 1966. His experiments clearly demonstrated that some cancers could be caused by infectious agents and led to the discovery of many more cancer-causing viruses in animals as well as humans.
RSV is a retrovirus that contains two copies of a plus-strand  RNA genome. Its genome consists of four main open...

Satellite Stem Cells and Muscular Dystrophy

2.5K
Satellite stem cells or myosatellite cells are quiescent stem cells that Alexander Mauro first identified in 1961. These cells are located between the sarcolemma, the plasma membrane of muscle fibers, and the basal lamina, the connective tissue sheath covering it. These mononucleated cells are activated in response to muscle injury, can transform into myoblasts, and may form or repair muscle fibers. Myosatellite cells can provide additional myonuclei for muscle regeneration or return to a...

Abnormal Proliferation02:23

Abnormal Proliferation

5.4K
Under normal conditions, most adult cells remain in a non-proliferative state unless stimulated by internal or external factors to replace lost cells. Abnormal cell proliferation is a condition in which the cell's growth exceeds and is uncoordinated with normal cells. In such situations, cell division persists in the same excessive manner even after cessation of the stimuli, leading to persistent tumors. The tumor arises from the damaged cells that replicate to pass the damage to the...

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Oncology
  • Medical Imaging
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Rhabdomyosarcoma is the most frequent soft-tissue sarcoma in children.
  • It can occur in any body location, exhibiting diverse biological behaviors.
  • Lacks specific clinical or radiological features, complicating early diagnosis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review imaging findings of childhood rhabdomyosarcoma.
  • To detail the anatomical distribution of its histological subtypes.
  • To discuss differential diagnostic considerations from histological studies.

Main Methods:

  • Comprehensive literature review focusing on imaging characteristics.
  • Analysis of anatomical distribution based on histological subtypes.
  • Secondary review of differential diagnostic findings in pathology.

Main Results:

  • Detailed description of imaging findings across various anatomical sites.
  • Correlation of imaging features with specific histological subtypes.
  • Identification of key differential diagnoses based on imaging and histology.

Conclusions:

  • Imaging plays a crucial role in the diagnosis of childhood rhabdomyosarcoma.
  • Understanding anatomical distribution aids in identifying subtypes.
  • Rhabdomyosarcoma must be considered in the differential diagnosis of pediatric solid tumors.
