The vascularization of 50 tumors of the central nervous system (CNS) including 17 meningiomas, 25 neuroectodermal tumors, i.e., astrocytomas, oligodendrogliomas, mixed gliomas, glioblastomas, medulloblastomas, seven metastatic carcinomas, and one malignant hemangioendothelioma were investigated
Markers for endothelial cells including Ulex europaeus 1 lectin, blood group A, B, and H, and the prostaglandin metabolite 6-keto-PGF1 alpha were evaluated in paraffin secretions from formalin-fixed benign and malignant vascular neoplasms using a variety of immunohistochemical techniques, and
Some skin and soft tumors, which generally are assumed to be derived from endothelial cells or blood vessels, were characterized with fluorochrome-labeled Ulex europaeus I agglutinin (UEA I), recently shown to bind specifically to endothelial cells in various normal human tissues. The staining
In this study we examined the staining reactivity of commercially available antisera to factor VIII related antigen (F VIII RAg) and Ulex europaeus agglutinin I (UEA-I) on sections from 230 formalin fixed paraffin embedded tumours. These included 196 sarcomas, 20 carcinomas and 14 angiomas. All
Thrombomodulin (TM) is a newly described endothelial cell-associated protein that functions as a potent natural anticoagulant by converting thrombin from a procoagulant protease to an anticoagulant. Various vascular tumors were characterized with immunoperoxidase staining with the use of a
Ninety-three polypectomized cases from the sigmo-rectal region were examined by lectin histochemistry. On the apical surface, the UEA-1 binding sites were positive in 24/29 carcinomas and in 25/62 adenomas; while the GSA-1 binding sites were positive in 16/29 carcinomas and in 0/62 adenomas. In 2
Paraffin-embedded blocks of 36 cerebellar haemangioblastomas were reacted with a panel of antibodies including glial fibrillary acidic protein, vimentin, epithelial membrane antigen, cytokeratin, Factor VIII, a neuroendocrine marker and with Ulex europaeus. agglutinin The main histological features,
The juxtaglomerular cell tumor (JGCT) of the kidney is a rare neoplasm which commonly secretes renin. This tumor often occurs in teenagers. This paper documents the 14th adult-onset (over 30-years-old) case with a giant JGCT which measured 9.0 x 8.0 x 7.5 cm. Histologically, this tumor was composed
Several studies have shown the deletion of blood group A or B antigens and the accumulation of H antigens in human breast carcinomas. Other studies have independently demonstrated that the binding sites of lectins such as Helix pomatia agglutinin (HPA) and Griffonia simplicifolia agglutinin I-B4
OBJECTIVE
Endocervical and endometrial tissues were stained with four lectins to determine the difference in staining pattern between non-neoplastic and neoplastic conditions of these tissues.
RESULTS
The lectins used were Ulex europaeus agglutinin (UEA), Dolicho biflorus agglutinin (DBA).
Binding sites of peanut agglutinin (PNA), Ulex europaeus (UEA-1), wheat germ agglutinin, concanavalin A, and Ricinus communis were localized in 46 common epithelial ovarian tumors. Binding pattern of serous cystadenomas showed significant similarity with the pattern seen in the epithelium of
Avidin-biotin-peroxidase labeling technic was used to localize the binding sites of Concanavalin agglutinin (Con A), Ricinus communis (RCA-I), Ulex europaeus (UEA-I), and Limus flafus (LFA) in the cervical epithelia afflicted with condyloma (2 cases), moderate dysplasia (6), severe dysplasia (3),
Lectin peroxidase histochemical analysis was carried out on pancreatic tissue from patients with pancreatic carcinoma and chronic pancreatitis and from subjects with normal pancreas to find a tumour specific pattern of lectin binding that would aid histological and cytological diagnosis. There were
A lectin histochemistry approach was adopted for comparative assessment of a colon cancer risk. Binding of Ulex europaeus agglutinin-I (UEA-I), peanut agglutinin (PNA), Griffonia simplicifolia agglutinin-II (GSA-II), and Dolichos biflorus agglutinin (DBA) was investigated in tumor and background
OBJECTIVE
To examine sialylation and fucosylation of prostate cancer-associated prostate-specific antigen (PCa PSA) from localized prostate cancer and from metastatic prostate cancer, as relevant indicators of tumour stage-dependent microheterogeneity of its oligosaccharide chain.
METHODS
Sera and
