  abstract  = {Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is an aggressive, virus-associated, neuroendocrine tumor of the skin mainly affecting immunocompromised patients. Higher intratumoral infiltration with CD3 and CD8 positive T-cells is associated with a better prognosis, highlighting the relevance of the immune system for MCC development and progression. In this study 21 primary MCCs were stained with immune cell markers including CD3, CD4, CD8, CD68, CD20, and S100. Furthermore, tumor-infiltrating neutrophils, tertiary lymphoid structures and PD-L1 expression were analyzed and correlated with overall and recurrence free survival. All MCCs were Merkel Cell Polyomavirus positive. Overall and recurrence-free survival did not correlate with intra-and peritumoral CD3 and CD8 T-cell infiltration. In addition, no significant association regarding prognosis was found for tumor-associated neutrophils, tumor-associated macrophages or PD-L1 positivity in MCCs. Interestingly, the presence of tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) in the tumor microenvironment significantly correlated with recurrence-free survival (P=0.025). In addition, TLS were significantly associated with a higher CD8/CD4 ratio in the tumor periphery (P=0.032), but not in the center of the tumor (P > 0.999). These results demonstrate for the first time that TLS, easily assessed in paraffin-embedded tissue in the tumor periphery of MCCs, may be a valuable prognostic factor indicating prolonged recurrence free survival.},

  abstract  = {Um die Verdteidigungsmechanismen der Wirtszelle gegen Sindbisvirusinfektion zu charakterisieren, haben wir in den Extrakten infizierter Zellen. Interferon(IFN)- stimulated- response- element (ISRE)- Bindungsproteine untersucht, welche in der transkriptionellen Induktion von IFN Typ I induzierter Gene beteiligt sind. Mittels Gelretentionsanalyse in der ein humanes Interferon-stimuliertes Gen 15 ( ISG15 ) Verwendung fand, wiesen wir in Extrakten von sindbisinfizierten L-929 Zellen verschiedene Proteinkomplexe nach, die nicht in Extrakten uninfizierter Zellen nachweisbar waren. {\"U}bereinstimmung im Laufverhalten mit Extrakten NDV-infizierter Zellen, in der ISRE-Bindungsspezifit{\"a}t und in Antik{\"o}rperversuchen zeigt, dass die sindbisinduzierten Komplexe in L-929 Zellen den bekannten DRAF1 und ISGF3 entsprechen. Transfektion von L-929 Zellen mit polyr I:rC induzierte lediglich ISGF3.},

For anatomical or structural information an additional imaging modality such as computed tomography (CT) is required. In this paper, the first hybrid MPI-CT scanner for multimodal imaging providing simultaneous data acquisition is presented.},
