TL;DR: A possible prognostic role for EGFR in primary NSCLC should be investigated, and no significant relationships were found to exist between receptor concentrations and pathological tumour size or histological type, or patient gender or age.

Bernard-Soulier syndrome associated with 22q11.2 microdeletion.
TL;DR: A Japanese girl with Bernard-Soulier syndrome and 22q11.2 microdeletion has viral infections and recurrent thrombocytopenia and hemorrhagic diathesis after cardiac surgery and patients with this association may have a greater risk of developing a severe bleeding disorder.

Role of transforming growth factor-β1 and decorin in development of central fibrosis in pulmonary adenocarcinoma
TL;DR: The results suggest that TGF-beta1 has an important role in the formation of central fibrosis in pulmonary adenocarcinoma, and decorin may play a role as a negative feedback regulator in the production of TGF

Well-differentiated fetal adenocarcinoma of lung
TL;DR: Well-differentiated fetal adenocarcinoma (WDFA) histologically resembles pulmonary blastoma, and is thought to be a subtype of pulmonary Blastoma which has differentiated epithelial features resembling the fetal lung among its epithelial Features and sarcomatous features.

Expression of neural stem cell markers in malignant rhabdoid tumor cell lines
TL;DR: Investigation of six MRT cell lines for CSC as well as neural stem cell (NSC) markers shows that some MRTs contain a subpopulation of NSC and down-regulation of N SC markers in MRT cells provides supportive evidence that many M RTs could be considered of neuroectodermal origin.
