Journal ArticleDOI
Pathogenetic mechanisms in thyroid follicular-cell neoplasia
TL;DR: Defects in transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation of adhesion molecules and cell-cycle control elements seem to affect tumour progression, and this information can provide powerful ancillary diagnostic tools and can also be used to identify new therapeutic targets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thyroid Incidentalomas: Prevalence by Palpation and Ultrasonography
TL;DR: The data indicate that thyroid abnormalities are very common incidental findings, emphasizing the need for a conservative approach when such lesions are encountered incidentally.
Journal ArticleDOI
Organization of the human myostatin gene and expression in healthy men and HIV-infected men with muscle wasting
Nestor F. Gonzalez-Cadavid,Wayne E. Taylor,Kevin E. Yarasheski,Indrani Sinha-Hikim,Kun Ma,Shereen Ezzat,Ruoqing Shen,Rukhsana Lalani,Sylvia L. Asa,Mohamad Mamita,Gouri Nair,Stefan Arver,Shalender Bhasin +12 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that myostatin is an attenuator of skeletal muscle growth in adult men and contributes to muscle wasting in HIV-infected men is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI
The pathogenesis of pituitary tumours
Sylvia L. Asa,Shereen Ezzat +1 more
TL;DR: Pituitary tumours are common and show a range of hormonal and proliferative behaviours that provide a model for the study of neoplasia mechanisms, although there are many differences in disease pathogenesis between mice and humans.
Journal ArticleDOI
The cytogenesis and pathogenesis of pituitary adenomas.
Sylvia L. Asa,Shereen Ezzat +1 more
TL;DR: A model of adenohypophysial cytodifferentiation for pituitary Adenoma development and progression and an integrated approach to multistep tumorigenesis are presented.
