	Blastoids!
		Black Bart: This blastoid is a very dark gray as is the matrix it is on.
		This is a nice large blastoid perched on the edge of the matrix along with other fossiliferious material.
		The blastoid measures just under 1/2 inch tall on a matrix that is 3-3/4 inches long by 2 inches wide.

	Fossil Blastoids - Southeastern Fossils - Blastoid
		Blastoids are an extinct marine invertabrate Class belonging to the Phylum Echinodermata.
		Blastoids are restricted to paleozoic sediments and range from the Ordovician the Permian with their peak development and diversity in the Mississippian Period.
		Pentremites is the most common Blastoid form, it flurished in the upper Mississippian (Chesterian) age of the eastern USA.

	Falls of the Ohio - Education
		Crinoids and blastoids are two kinds of fossils that may be observed at the fossil beds at the Falls of the Ohio.
		Blastoids had fused plates which usually held together after death, although they may have been shattered by hitting rocks or crushed upon burial.
		Whereas the blastoid's anus were adjacent to the mouth, most crinoids had theirs in an elevated position.

	The Blastoidea (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Although never as diverse as their contemporaries the crinoids, blastoids are common fossils, especially in many Mississippian-age rocks.
		Blastoids show a very regular and tightly integrated plate arrangement, which is in part responsible for their abundance as fossils: the theca held together after tha animal died.
		The five holes that you can see on the specimen at the top of the picture, surrounding the star-shaped mouth, are the anus (the largest hole of the five) and the entrances to a set of five complex folded respiratory organs known as the hydrospires.

	Blastoid at AllExperts
		Blastoids persisted until their extinction at the end of Permian, about 250 million years ago.
		Like crinoids, blastoids were high-level, stalked suspension feeders (feeding mainly on planktonic organisms) that inhabited clear-to-silty, moderately-agitated ocean waters from shelf to basin.
		Blastoids are subdivided into two subclasses: Fissiculata, which are characterized by direct entrance to the individual hydrospires by way of slits; and Spiraculata, which are characterized by indirect entrance to the hydrospires through canals by way of pores.

	ISGS Blastoids
		Blastoids had stems like crinoids, but some may have been attached directly to the sea floor.
		The oldest blastoids lived about 440 to 430 million years ago and their fossils are found in Silurian rocks.
		In Illinois, blastoid fossils are most commonly found in Mississippian (354 to 323 million years ago) rocks exposed in western and southwestern Illinois river bluffs and stream banks, especially in Randolph County, and also in southern Illinois near the Ohio River.

	Congenital NevusT(c7bt2)
		In the deeper portion of the reticular dermis in some examples, the nevus cells are somewhat spindle shaped, and a delicate fibrous matrix is associated with the cells (early, partial maturation).
		Nodular zones are common in these immature lesions; they usually are not significantly atypical; such lesions qualify as blastoid nodules of immature congenital nevi.
		3 and 4 are not blastoid lesions; they are typical of the lesion that I classify as MDM of dermal type or halo nevus-like type.

		Although it has been assumed that blastoid variant represents histologic transformation of typical MCL, the clonal relationship between the two tumors has rarely been assessed at the molecular level.

	Crinoid - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Confusingly, another early group of echinoderms were also the Eocrinoids, but that group is currently thought to be an ancestor of blastoids rather than of crinoids.
		Some fossil crinoids, such as Pentacrinites, seem to have lived attached to floating driftwood and complete colonies are often found.
		The fossils of other stalked filter-feeding echinoderms, such as blastoids, are also found in the rocks of the Palaeozoic era.

		The point of stratocladistics is to give appropriate weight to both the morphologic and the stratigraphic evidence of phylogeny; we gain nothing by misrepresenting the essential character of the record.
		In the blastoid study, we used morphologic data only from well characterized, species-level OTUs.
		Ideally, ingroups should be sampled as comprehensively as possible, but with a group as longlived and diverse as blastoids, limitations in computing power required some compromise.

	USCAP 2003 Annual Meeting
		Blastoid transformation of MCL may arise de novo or following a history of typical mantle cell lymphoma.
		Using laser capture microdissection and gene expression profiling we have attempted to delineate genetic events in transformation of normal mantles to MCL and MCL-BV Cyclin D1 alone is insufficient to promote the development of MCL in transgenic mice and therefore other oncogenic events are implicated.
		The clonal relationship between MALT, SLL, follicular lymphoma, and Hodgkin lymphoma, DLBCL, Burkitt lymphoma, blastoid mantle cell lymphoma, lymphoblastic lymphoma, and anaplastic variant of large cell lymphoma are described.

		Subsequently, inhibition of the PIK3/AKT-pathway with LY294002, Wortmannin and AKT-inhibitor was performed in the four cell lines.pAKT was expressed in all 15 blastoid variants of MCL and in the 4 cell lines, with high expression in 13/15 cases and low expression in 2/15 cases.
		Furthermore, pAKT expression in the blastoid variants and cell lines was accompanied by the phosphorylation of multiple downstream targets of activated AKT, including the cell cycle regulatory proteins p27, FRKHL-1, MDM-2 and the apoptosis associated protein bad.
		We conclude that constitutive activation of AKT contributes to the pathogenesis of the blastoid variants of MCL.

	Mantle Cell Lymphoma
		A subset of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) tumors has blastoid morphology, and a number of morphologic variants of blastoid MCL have been described in the literature.
		We conclude that 8q24 abnormalities involving the c-myc gene are uncommon secondary abnormalities that occur in a subset of mantle cell lymphomas.
		Greater awareness not only of the phenotypic criteria by which lymphomas are classified but of the lymphoma markers available for evaluation of routinely processed tissue should facilitate the accurate diagnosis of diseases like MCL and minimize the risk of misdiagnosis as an indolent disorder.

		Blastoid MCL has a very poor prognosis, with a median survival of 16-20 months after treatment with CHOP-like chemotherapy regimens.
		Rates of complete remission were lower for blastoid when compared to non-blastoid cytology (79% vs 89%, respectively) but not statistically significant (p = 0.72).
		Contrary to what we had expected, the improved outcome in this group of patients with blastoid cytology suggests a potential for long term remission after intense, non-myeloablative chemotherapy.

		Recently, they have been classified into four main types (nasal and nasal-type NK cell lymphoma, aggressive NK cell leukemia/lymphoma, and blastoid NK cell leukemia/lymphoma), based on clinical features, racial predisposition, presence of azurophilic granules, immunophenotype and association with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection.
		A 72-year-old Caucasian man presented with a malignant neoplasm comprised of blastoid cells without azurophilic granules in the Giemsa stain, with positivity for CD2, CD4, HLA-DR, CD45 and CD56, and negativity for CD3 (surface and cytoplasmic) and CD5.
		Based on these results, a diagnosis of blastoid NK cell lymphoma was made.
