RETRACTED ARTICLE: Tuberous sclerosis with pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis and renal angiomyolipomas. Computed tomographic...
The benign, non-invasive lesions of tuberous sclerosis can appear in any organ like the brain, heart, skin, eyes, kidney, lung, and liver. Therefore, TS has a wide clinical spectrum. The diagnosis of definitive TS is based on specific clinical features and requires the presence of two major criteria, or one major and two minor [3]. Pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis, renal angiomyolipoma and facial angiofibroma are some of the major clinical features.. The most frequent cause of death in patients with TS is renal complication [3, 5]. Multifocal, bilateral angiomyolipomas are found in about 70-90% of adult patients [3], and the prevalence increases with age, being less frequent in children [3, 4]. These lesions are more often prevalent in women, suggesting a hormonal component to the tumor growth [6]. The angiomyolipomas are composed of varying amounts of mature adipose tissue, smooth muscle, and abnormal blood vessels [3, 6]. The demonstration of intratumoral fat with negative attenuation values ...

PY - 2000. Y1 - 2000. N2 - Pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is an uncommon disease reported to occur exclusively in women. We describe a pheno-typically normal man with pulmonary LAM. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) studies performed on the lung biopsy confirmed a normal XY genotype. Our patient also had stigmata of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), including facial angiofibromas and renal angiomyolipoma. Immunohistochemical stains of both Lam and renal angiomyolipoma showed positive immunoreactivity for hamartin (TSC1) and loss of immunoreactivity for tuberin (TSC2). Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) for TSC2 was further demonstrated in the renal angiomyolipoma. Coupled with the results of immunostains, these findings are consistent with TSC2 mutation..

Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (include discussion of Tuberous Sclerosis and Birt-Hogg-Dubé Syndrome) - Clinical Advisor
LAM also occurs in patients who do not have TSC. This form, termed sporadic LAM or S-LAM, is diagnosed in at least 2.5-5 per million women, or roughly 10,000 women worldwide, although it is likely that S-LAM is substantially underdiagnosed. To date, only one biopsy-documented case of S-LAM in a male has been reported. Although less common, most patients seen in the clinic have S-LAM rather than TSC-LAM.. In LAM, lung destruction occurs as a result of neoplastic proliferation of benign-appearing smooth muscle cells in the lung. Genetic evidence indicates that the LAM cells that infiltrate the lung arise from an unknown extrapulmonary source and spread via the bloodstream and lymphatics. Leading candidates for the site of origin include the uterus, renal angiomyolipomas, and lymphatics. LAM cells express the lymphangiogenic growth factors VEGF-C and VEGF-D and induce disordered lymphatic channel formation in the lung and lymphatics. Frustrated lymphangiogenesis likely contributes to the ...

Updated Diagnostic Criteria for Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) - MedicalCRITERIA.com
Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is highly variable in clinical presentation and findings. Disease manifestations continue to develop over the lifetime of an affected individual. Accurate diagnosis is fundamental to implementation of appropriate medical surveillance and treatment. Updated Diagnostic Criteria for Tuberous Sclerosis Complex.. A. Genetic diagnostic criteria. The identification of either a TSC1 or TSC2 pathogenic mutation in DNA from normal tissue is sufficient to make a definite diagnosis of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). A pathogenic mutation is defined as a mutation that clearly inactivates the function of the TSC1 or TSC2 proteins (e.g., out-of-frame indel or nonsense mutation), prevents protein synthesis (e.g., large genomic deletion), or is a missense mutation whose effect on protein function has been established by functional assessment. Other TSC1 or TSC2 variants whose effect on function is less certain do not meet these criteria, and are not sufficient to make a ...
2006 Tuberous Sclerosis Complex Highlights, Tuberous Sclerosis Complex Research Program, Congressionally Directed Medical...
Tuberous sclerosis complex is caused by inactivating mutations in TSC1 (hamartin) or TSC2 (tuberin) tumor suppressor genes. The disorder is associated with increased activity of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), a central regulator of protein synthesis and cell growth that is inhibited by chronic oxygen deprivation (hypoxia). Tumor hypoxia has been associated with a negative prognosis in several types of cancers. With funding from a Department of Defense Tuberous Sclerosis Complex Research Program Fiscal Year 2003 Idea Development Award, Dr. William Kaelin of the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute has discovered that the TSC1/TSC2 protein complex regulates mTOR in response to hypoxia. Dr. Kaelin and his research team showed that an intact TSC1/TSC2 complex is required for mTOR inhibition by hypoxia. Inactivation of TSC2 conferred a proliferative advantage to cells grown under hypoxic conditions. Dr. Kaelins group further defined the mechanisms of TSC1/TSC2-mediated mTOR inhibition under hypoxic ...

Early renal surveillance: A necessity in a child with tuberous sclerosis complex
Ultrasound (US) scan showed bilateral renal masses. CT scan of the abdomen revealed mass lesions in both kidneys (Fig. 1 D). The lesions showed no fat attenuation, with areas of necrosis and calcifications suggestive of bilateral renal cell carcinoma. The parents refused further evaluation and treatment.. Discussion. Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is an extremely variable genetic disorder that can affect virtually any organ in the body. The most common findings are benign tumours in the skin, brain, kidneys, lungs and heart, which can lead to organ dysfunction. TSC is highly variable in clinical presentation and findings. Diagnosis is made based on the updated diagnostic criteria established at the Tuberous Sclerosis Complex Consensus Conference in 2012. Disease manifestations continue to develop over the lifetime of an affected individual. Accurate diagnosis is fundamental to implementation of appropriate medical surveillance and treatment, apart from being crucial for optimal quality of life ...

Y1 - 2015/12/1. N2 - Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by the development of widespread hamartomatous lesions in various organs, including brain, skin, kidneys, heart, and eyes. Central nervous system is almost invariably involved, with up to 85% of patients presenting with epilepsy, and at least half of patients having intellectual disability or other neuropsychiatric disorders including autism spectrum disorder. TSC is caused by the mutation in one of the 2 genes TSC1, at 9q34, and TSC2, at 16p13.3. They respectively encode for hamartin and tuberin, which form an intracellular complex inhibiting the mammalian target of rapamycin. Mammalian target of rapamycin overactivation following the genetic defect determines the cell growth and proliferation responsible for ...

Zebrafish model of tuberous sclerosis complex reveals cell-autonomous and non-cell-autonomous functions of mutant tuberin |...
Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is an autosomal dominant disease caused by mutations in either the TSC1 (encodes hamartin) or TSC2 (encodes tuberin) genes. Patients with TSC have hamartomas in various organs throughout the whole body, most notably in the brain, skin, eye, heart, kidney and lung. To study the development of hamartomas, we generated a zebrafish model of TSC featuring a nonsense mutation (vu242) in the tsc2 gene. This tsc2vu242 allele encodes a truncated Tuberin protein lacking the GAP domain, which is required for inhibition of Rheb and of the TOR kinase within TORC1. We show that tsc2vu242 is a recessive larval-lethal mutation that causes increased cell size in the brain and liver. Greatly elevated TORC1 signaling is observed in tsc2vu242/vu242 homozygous zebrafish, and is moderately increased in tsc2vu242/+ heterozygotes. Forebrain neurons are poorly organized in tsc2vu242/vu242 homozygous mutants, which have extensive gray and white matter disorganization and ectopically ...

Regulation of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) function by 14-3-3 proteins | Biochemical Society Transactions
Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a genetic disorder characterized by seizures, mental disability, renal dysfunction and dermatological abnormalities. The disease is caused by inactivation of either hamartin or tuberin, the products of the TSC1 and TSC2 tumour-suppressor genes. Hamartin and tuberin form a complex and antagonise phosphoinositide 3-kinase/protein kinase B/target of rapamycin signal transduction by inhibiting p70 S6 kinase, an activator of translation, and activating 4E-binding protein 1, an inhibitor of translation initiation. Phosphorylation-dependent binding between tuberin and members of the 14-3-3 protein family indicates how the tuberin-hamartin complex may interact with upstream and downstream effectors, and suggests how phosphorylation-dependent regulation of the complex may be controlled.. ...
Trial of RAD001 and Neurocognition in Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) - Full Text View - ClinicalTrials.gov
Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) is a multi-system disease, usually presenting with seizures, mental retardation and autism, and exhibiting a high variability in clinical findings both among and within families. Investigators are doing research in order to identify possible neurocognitive benefits from treatment with RAD001 or placebo for a six month period. There may also be potential for improvements in seizure frequency, sleep and autistic behaviors. We hope this trial will lead to a better understanding of TSC and to new forms of treatment, to benefit children and adults with TSC in the future.. Individuals diagnosed with TSC will be asked to participate in this study if they are between the ages of 6 and 21 years of age and have an IQ of greater than or equal to 60. Both males and females will be asked to participate. Additionally, to be eligible for study participation, individuals must have been on the same seizure medication(s), if applicable, for at least 6 months. Individuals must also ...

Protocol Design.. This is a natural history study involving the imaging characteristics of angiomyolipomata found in patients with tuberous sclerosis complex. This study offers the potential benefit that the lesion characteristics and growth rate will be monitored. Patel et al. posit that growth rates of greater than 0.5 cm/year for solid tumors are worrisome for malignancy. Patients harboring lesions that exhibit faster growth rates will be identified so that they can be more carefully monitored. During the course of the study, should we detect concerning features, the Consortium Center TS Clinic Director will be alerted. Imaging modalities that may be used include CT scans. The patient data being collected will be done so for clinical reasons, and every effort will be made to use the least possible radiation exposure. There are several ways to reduce the exposure, and these limiting techniques will be employed for each scan. The scans will be performed both pre and post contrast using an agent ...

We thought it was funny I had to eat so much food during the day and always have snacks on me. I would get nauseous, light headed or headaches if I didnt eat on time or had to wait a little longer between meals. It was actually quite a pain because most of my life revolved around food, if I wasnt eating I was thinking about my next meal or getting a snack ready.

Perivascular epithelioid cell tumour - Wikipedia
Perivascular epithelioid cell tumour, also known as PEComa or PEC tumour, is a family of mesenchymal tumours consisting of perivascular epithelioid cells (PECs). These are rare tumours that can occur in any part of the human body. The cell type from which these tumours originate remains unknown. Normally, no perivascular epitheloid cells exist; the name refers to the characteristics of the tumour when examined under the microscope. Establishing the malignant potential of these tumours remains challenging although criteria have been suggested; some PEComas display malignant features whereas others can cautiously be labeled as having uncertain malignant potential. The most common tumours in the PEComa family are renal angiomyolipoma and pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis, both of which are more common in patients with tuberous sclerosis complex. The genes responsible for this multi-system genetic disease have also been implicated in other PEComas. Many PEComa types shows a female predominance in ...
About PEComa | My PEComa Study
What is PEComa?. Perivascular epithelioid cell tumors (PEComas) are ultra-rare carcinomas, representing a family of mesenchymal tumors arising from perivascular epithelioid cells (PECs) that surround the blood vessels. PEComas can occur in any part of the body, with most commonly in the abdominal cavity, pelvic region (uterus in women), and the gastrointestinal tract.. The most common types of PEComas are angiomyolipoma (AML) and lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM), and clear cell sugar tumor (CCST). Less well-characterized PEComas of a variety of anatomic origins are called PEComa- not otherwise specified (PEComa-NOS).. What are the risk factors for PEComa?. A few risk factors for PEComa have been noted, including having tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), which is a genetic disorder characterized by the growth of numerous benign tumors in many parts of the body. TSC is caused by mutation of the TSC1 or TSC2 genes. Both these genes suppress tumor growth in the body by regulating cell growth through ...

TY - JOUR. T1 - Partial Nephrectomy. T2 - Technique Complications and Pathological Findings. AU - Polascik, Thomas J.. AU - Pound, Charles R.. AU - Meng, Maxwell V.. AU - Partin, Alan W.. AU - Marshall, Fray F.. PY - 1995/10. Y1 - 1995/10. N2 - Purpose: We evaluate whether partial nephrectomy can be performed safely and efficaciously for renal tumors. Materials and Methods: The results of 67 partial nephrectomies performed between 1977 and 1994 for renal cell carcinoma (51), oncocytoma (9), angiomyolipoma (3), transitional cell carcinoma (3) and other nonneoplastic lesions (2) were analyzed retrospectively in detail. Results: Diminished complication rates were noted after 1988, and were attributed to improvements in surgical technique and an increased incidence of smaller, serendipitously discovered tumors. Although 35.5 percent of the patients had preoperative renal impairment (mean serum creatinine 2.1 mg./dl.), there were minimal changes in renal function and no patient required acute ...

Herscot Center for Tuberous Sclerosis Complex - Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA
The Carol and James Herscot Center for Children and Adults with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex was made possible through the singular generosity of Mr. and Mrs. James Herscot.. Nearly 40 years ago, Carol and Jim Herscot found themselves in a terrifying situation. Their son, Brad, began having seizures, followed by other symptoms that the Herscots now know are typical of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). At the time, no one knew about this disease, Mrs. Herscot recalls. We were so alone and so frightened. No one could answer our questions, despite our going to one specialist after another for advice and guidance.. Despite the isolation they felt, the Herscots never allowed themselves to be defeated by the unpredictable and potentially devastating TSC, nor did they waver in their dedication to their son, who today lives semi-independently. Indeed, the Herscots commitment to improving the lives of individuals with TSC and their families remains boundless, as evidenced by their extraordinary ...

Week 663: Case 3 | Johns Hopkins Surgical Pathology Unknown Conference
Answer: B. Polypoid endometrioma. Histology: A polypoid mass is seen projecting into the urethra. The mass has both solid and cystic components. The cystic components are lined variably by cuboidal cells w/o cilia, cuboidal or columnar cells with cilia, or urothelium. The intervening stroma has the appearance of endometrial stroma with condensation around the cysts. Clusters of prominent thick walled arterioles are evident. The tumor stroma was positive for estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and CD10.. Discussion: A characteristic features of spindle cell tumors in the kidney is that they tend to entrap native renal tubules, which then often become cystically dilated. This occurs in monophasic synovial sarcoma, angiomyolipoma, and in mixed epithelial and stromal tumor (MEST). In all these lesions, the tubules are lined by bland cuboidal epithelium which label with PAX8. Another feature of several renal lesions is that the stroma can undergo metaplasia to ovarian-like stroma which ...

Immunohistological features related to functional impairment in lymphangioleiomyomatosis | Respiratory Research | Full Text
Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a low-grade neoplasm characterized by the pulmonary infiltration of smooth muscle-like cells (LAM cells) and cystic destruction. Patients usually present with airway obstruction in pulmonary function tests (PFTs). Previous studies have shown correlations among histological parameters, lung function abnormalities and prognosis in LAM. We investigated the lung tissue expression of proteins related to the mTOR pathway, angiogenesis and enzymatic activity and its correlation with functional parameters in LAM patients. We analyzed morphological and functional parameters of thirty-three patients. Two groups of disease severity were identified according to FEV1 values. Lung tissue from open biopsies or lung transplants was immunostained for SMA, HMB-45, mTOR, VEGF-D, MMP-9 and D2-40. Density of cysts, density of nodules and protein expression were measured by image analysis and correlated with PFT parameters. There was no difference in the expression of D2-40 between the more

Identification of the Tuberous Sclerosis Gene TSC1 on Chromosome 9q34 | Science
Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by the widespread development of distinctive tumors termed hamartomas. TSC-determining loci have been mapped to chromosomes 9q34 (TSC1) and 16p13 (TSC2). TheTSC1 gene was identified from a 900-kilobase region containing at least 30 genes. The 8.6-kilobase TSC1transcript is widely expressed and encodes a protein of 130 kilodaltons (hamartin) that has homology to a putative yeast protein of unknown function. Thirty-two distinct mutations were identified inTSC1, 30 of which were truncating, and a single mutation (2105delAAAG) was seen in six apparently unrelated patients. In one of these six, a somatic mutation in the wild-type allele was found in a TSC-associated renal carcinoma, which suggests that hamartin acts as a tumor suppressor. ...

Dr. Axe - 3 Steps to Beat Lyme - Lyme Disease - HealingWell.com Forum
I definitely agree with most of the things he says. Healing the gut and following a healthy diet (minimal fat), in my experience, got rid of all my symptoms. He also talks a lot about the benefits of MSM in other articles, which is one of the reasons I started taking it as I trust his approach. Thats not to say that I didnt find benefits from taking herbs, they just didnt completely heal me, plus I think some of the strong herbs I took may have contributed to my leaky gut. Now after taking liposomal colostrum and MSM for a month, my gut feels top notch and my symptoms are totally gone. So yeah healing definitely starts from the ...
