Abstract:
In this article, we present a case of a female patient suffering from granulomatosis and polyangiitis with active glomerular disease, who developed exacerbation of pulmonary vasculitis and palpable tumors of right breast. A possibility of neoplastic disease was excluded by histopathological examination of percutaneous biopsy specimen, revealing granulomatous inflammatory infiltrate, without any features of neoplasia. Moreover, both pulmonary and breast lesions subsided following intensification of immunosuppressive/antiinflammatory treatment.

Protein Folding and Misfolding
The cytoplasm is the location for several cellular processes, including protein synthesis and folding. The aqueous nature of the cytosol promotes protein folding such that the hydrophobic amino acid side chains are buried in the protein...
