Benign refers toa condition, tumor, or growth that is not cancerous. This means that it does not spread to other parts of the body. It does not invade nearby tissue. Sometimes, a condition is called benign to suggest it is not dangerous or serious. What is Fibroadipose connective tissue?
Adipose tissue was present in the majority of the cases. (2) The tunica albuginea, a thick and dense fibroelastic band of tissue separating the outer fascia from the erectile tissues of the corpora cavernosa. Adipose tissue within the albuginea was present in 21 specimens (19%). (3) ...
Five key cytologic features compared included the presence of fibroadipose tissue, stromal fragments, benign epithelial groups, angulated tumor cell clusters, and tubular structures of tumor cells; for the first three features, the proximity with tumor cells also was noted. The presence of stromal ...
Although it normally exists as a homodimer, when activated, it assembles into a heterodimer composed of the α and β subunits and participates in the migration of fibro- blasts to the collagen matrix. FAP is highly expressed in several cancerous myofibroblasts and is considered an important ...
High mammographic density is an independent risk factor for breast cancer by poorly understood molecular mechanisms. Women with dense breasts often undergo conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) despite its limited specificity, which may be increased by diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) with apparent...
Moreover, it is known that the normal evolution of IH is toward a fibroadipose transdifferentation, and recently we demonstrated that this process is even promoted by β3-AR antagonism,58 suggesting that IH regression is related with the downregulation/inactivation of β3-ARs rather than their ...
Obesity (especially android obesity) and pancreatic fatty infiltration are risk factors for precancerous pancreatic lesions. Adipose tissue, particularly visceral fat, is known to play a key role in the metabolic dysfunctions triggered by obesity. In obesity, decreased adiponectin plasma levels are corr...
(49%) of cases. Extra-thyroidal extension and positive margins were present in 31 and 14% of cases, respectively. In patients with extra-thyroidal extension, invasion was seen in perithyroidal fibroadipose tissue in 39/44 (89%), in skeletal muscle in 4/44 (9%) and in trachea in 1/...
In the heart after myocardial infarction, fibrofatty tissue replacement in scarred regions has been documented47,48, and adipocyte deposits can cause lethal arrhythmia49. Ectopic accumulation of fat tissue is a potential clinical target for the suppression of adipogenesis that currently does not have ...
Suppressed Akt/GSK-3β/β-catenin signaling contributes to excessive adipogenesis of fibro-adipogenic progenitors after rotator cuff tears Article Open access 25 August 2023 Lineage tracing reveals a novel PDGFRβ+ satellite cell subset that contributes to myo-regeneration of chronically injured rotator...
