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
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
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
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
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
A comparison of the histochemical affinities of three lectins reputedly specific to human large bowel carcinoma, namely Griffonia simplicifolia agglutinin-II (GSA-II), peanut agglutinin (PNA) and Ulex europaeus agglutinin-I (UEA-I), was done using 28 specimens in which normal mucosa, adenoma and
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
We used Ulex europaeus agglutinin I (UEAI)-immunoperoxidase staining of endothelium to study the accuracy of hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) diagnosis, occurrence, and significance of lymphvascular invasion in transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the bladder invading the lamina propria (Stage T1).
A Ulex europeus agglutinin I (UEAI)-reactive glycoprotein(s) with molecular weight higher than 300,000 was detected by direct binding of 125I-labeled UEAI to lysates of rectal or sigmoid colon cancer tissues separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate.
Differences in glycoconjugate composition between proliferative endometrium and endometrial adenocarcinoma were investigated by histochemical techniques using seven different lectins as probes. For light microscopy, the avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex (ABC) method was used. Concanavalin A (Con A),
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
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,
Immunohistochemical identification of Factor VIII-related antigen and Ulex Europaeus A-I lectin as endothelial markers were studied in a series of 103 cases, comprising of benign and malignant vascular tumours, and few undifferentiated sarcomas. The results are correlated with that of others in this
BACKGROUND
The development of certain biologic characteristics in human colorectal tumor xenografted onto nude mice are described with respect to their precocious passages, i.e., passaging below 10 onto athymic mice.
METHODS
The biologic characteristic monitoring involved the determination of
Immunocharacterization of intermediate filament proteins and lectin-binding studies were carried out in canine transmissible venereal tumour (TVT), a unique neoplasia sharing some epidemiological features with Kaposi's sarcoma in humans. Neoplastic cells express vimentin, but neither cytokeratin nor
