Rare other causes include carcinoid syndrome, endocarditis, endomyocardial fibrosis, lupus erythematosus, right atrial myxoma and congenital tricuspid atresia.
22.
Consequently, neurothekeoma and nerve sheath myxoma are likely not related histogenetically, although they are similar in appearance and in behavior.
23.
For rabbits, geneticists chose to engineer the myxoma virus, which devastated populations when it was released in Australia half century ago.
24.
Lanier has been diagnosed with a syndrome called " Carney Complex, " a hereditary disorder that involves recurrent atrial myxomas.
25.
Patients afflicted with an odontogenic myxoma generally notice a painless, slowly enlarging expansion of the jaw with possible tooth loosening or displacement.
26.
Microscopically, the lesions described closely resembled the tumor, nerve sheath myxoma, an entity first described by Harkin and Reed.
27.
Four years ago, researchers selected the rabbit ZPB gene as the most promising of three zona pellucida genes to insert into the myxoma virus.
28.
For example, the M-T2 protein of myxoma viruses can bind TNF preventing it from binding the TNF receptor and inducing a response.
29.
Fenner's work on the myxoma virus showed that initially it killed rabbits in 9 to 11 days and was 99.5 % lethal.
30.
The myxoma virus, which causes myxomatosis, was introduced into the rabbit population in the 1950s and had the effect of severely reducing the rabbit population.
