The distribution of carbohydrate residues in eccrine and apocrine glands of normal human skin was studied using a post-embedding technique with Lowicryl K4M. Thin sections were incubated with Ulex europaeus agglutinin I (UEA I), wheat germ agglutinin (WGA), peanut agglutinin (PNA), concanavalin A
Preputial glands of the Japanese serow were found to consist of the modified sebaceous gland and apocrine gland in both sexes. In the modified sebaceous gland, cells transformed gradually toward the lumen from plentiful cytoplasm to a sponge-like network. Lipid droplets were observed in mitochondria
We performed studies on the lectin-binding pattern in epithelial tumor cell components of 4 cases of mixed tumor of the skin developing on the face in addition to identification of keratin and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), compared with those of normal sweat glands. Normal eccrine glands showed
Histology and lectin histochemistry were performed in the infraorbital gland of the Japanese serow. The gland is composed of glandular tissues and a pouch filled with the secretion. The tissues consist of an inner layer of sebaceous glands and an outer layer of apocrine glands. The male sebaceous
A histochemical investigation of lectin-binding sites was carried out on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections of 60 skin appendage tumors and adjacent normal skin appendages, using four different biotinylated lectins, peanut agglutinin (PNA), Dolichos biflorus agglutinin (DBA), soybean
