Enlargement of the Plasma Membrane01:22

Enlargement of the Plasma Membrane

2.4K
Cell division and enlargement are processes that require precise control. The control ensures that cell division cannot proceed unless the cell has grown to a specific size. A spherical, dividing cell requires an approximately 1.6X increase in its surface area to double its volume. The secretory pathway also has a significant role in cell membrane enlargement. Secretory vesicles that bud off from the Golgi apparatus and later fuse with the plasma membrane during exocytosis are a major source of...

Pleiotropy01:33

Pleiotropy

43.3K
Pleiotropy is the phenomenon in which a single gene impacts multiple, seemingly unrelated phenotypic traits. For example, defects in the SOX10 gene cause Waardenburg Syndrome Type 4, or WS4, which can cause defects in pigmentation, hearing impairments, and an absence of intestinal contractions necessary for elimination. This diversity of phenotypes results from the expression pattern of SOX10 in early embryonic and fetal development. SOX10 is found in neural crest cells that form melanocytes,...

Oogenesis02:07

Oogenesis

69.6K
In human women, oogenesis produces one mature egg cell or ovum for every precursor cell that enters meiosis. This process differs in two unique ways from the equivalent procedure of spermatogenesis in males. First, meiotic divisions during oogenesis are asymmetric, meaning that a large oocyte (containing most of the cytoplasm) and minor polar body are produced as a result of meiosis I, and again following meiosis II. Since only oocytes will go on to form embryos if fertilized, this unequal...

Summary

Extramammary Paget disease is a rare skin neoplasm affecting apocrine glands. Early biopsy is crucial for diagnosis, as symptoms often mimic eczema, delaying proper treatment.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Extramammary Paget disease (EMPD) is a rare intraepithelial neoplasm.
  • It primarily affects apocrine gland-bearing skin areas like the axilla, vulva, and perineum.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the clinical presentation and diagnostic challenges of EMPD.
  • To emphasize the importance of biopsy in differentiating EMPD from other skin conditions.

Main Methods:

  • Review of clinical characteristics and patient history.
  • Emphasis on diagnostic procedures for skin lesions.

Main Results:

  • EMPD presents as a slow-growing plaque, often erythematous or gray-white.
  • Symptoms include pruritus, pain, and burning, but can be absent.
  • Misdiagnosis as eczema is common, leading to treatment delays.

Conclusions:

  • Chronic, unresponsive dermatitis warrants biopsy for EMPD diagnosis.
  • Timely diagnosis through biopsy is essential for effective management of EMPD.
