Article Abstract
Background And Aim: We describe a case of Ménétrier disease, occurred in female patient.
Methods: We decide to assess by non-invasive way (serum pepsinogens and gastrin 17) the secretory status of gastric mucosa, to confirm previous data of the literature, claiming high levels of both acid secretion and hypergastrinemia in this rare pathological condition.
Results And Conclusion: We find in the subject the highest values of pepsinogen 1 - a marker of acid secretion - never described in the literature to our knowledge: 1940 mcg/L, being normal values ranging from 30-160 mcg/L. Similarly, gastrin 17, produced 90% in the antrum and responsible for negative acid feedback, was very high: 139 pg/L, ranging normal values between 1-10 pg/L. (www.actabiomedica.it).

Objective: To describe the use of transcorneal iris photocoagulation (TCIP) to improve intraocular visualization of intended incision lines, reduce hemorrhage, and facilitate excision of pigmented iridal tumors in four canine eyes and one feline eye.
Materials And Methods: A Rhodesian Ridgeback (treated bilaterally), a German Shepherd, a Labrador Retriever, and a Scottish Fold underwent sector iridectomy due to rapidly growing, pigmented, raised, iridal tumors affecting 1/4-1/3 of the iris circumference (3- to 4-clock hours). A diode laser was used to delineate the intended sector iridectomy incision lines, approximately 1-2 mm away from the grossly visible tumor margins, with the aim of improving visualization to achieve tumor-free margins and reduce tissue handling/trauma.

The estrogen receptor (ER or ERα) remains the primary therapeutic target for luminal breast cancer, with current treatments centered on competitive antagonists, receptor down-regulators, and aromatase inhibitors. Despite these options, resistance frequently emerges, highlighting the need for alternative targeting strategies. We discovered a novel mechanism of ER inhibition that targets the previously unexplored interface between the DNA-binding domain (DBD) and ligand-binding domain (LBD) of the receptor.
