    Notes: Summary Sixteen cases of typical highly malignant osteosarcoma were investigated by light, electron, and immunofluorescence microscopy to demonstrate the presence of collagen types I–III. It was shown that, in light-microscopically anaplastic areas of the tumor, collagen type III predominates, while only very few membranes of collagen type I are observed. Ultrastructurally, the cells are characterized by numerous free ribosomes in their cytoplasm and only a few membranes of granular endoplasmic reticulum (ER). In osteoblastic areas, collagen type I is increased, while type-III collagen is decreased. The cytoplasm of cells contains markedly more granular ER. An increasing mineralization of matrix is observed. In fibroblastic areas of the tumors, collagen types I and III are codistributed. Tumor cells have a fibroblast appearance with elongated nuclei and well developed granular ER. The chondroblastic areas, characterized by immature neoplastic cartilage, contain varying amounts of collagen type II. Chondroblast-like tumor cells have typical ring-shaped membranes of granular ER in their cytoplasm. The evidence of different collagen types in osteosarcomas lends additional support to the concept that a pluripotent mesenchymal cell is the stem cell of osteosarcomas.

    Notes: Abstract Accumulation of p53 has been reported in nearly all malignant human tumours. Macrophage derived giant cells of sarcoid granulomas in human lung tissue also show intense staining for p53 while normal alveolar macrophages remain unstained. Since sarcoid giant cells are not considered to be either pre-neoplastic nor to exhibit p53 gene mutations, two different physiological functions of p53 may be illustrated. Alveolar macrophages were isolated from rat lungs and cultured in vitro. Accumulation of p53 was observed by indirect immunohistochemistry after application of polyclonal rabbit serum directed against murine p53 (CM5). Antiproliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) antibodies were used to study DNA synthesis. Most of the multinucleated giant cells derived from macrophages accumulated p53 in the cytoplasm, while only few nuclei were stained. PCNA was found in most giant cells nuclei. However, PCNA positivity was visible in few mononucleated macrophages. Isolated alveolar macrophages in vitro clearly divide and since nuclear division is a late event in the cell cycle, p53 may be involved in G1/S-control and in other cell-cycle-checkpoints between mitosis and cytokinesis.

    Production and identification of heavy Ni isotopes: evidence for the doubly magic nucleus 28 78 Ni (1995)

    Notes: Abstract We report the first observation of the doubly magic nucleus78Ni50 and the heavy isotopes77Ni,73,74,75Co,80Cu. The isotopes were produced by nuclear fission in collisions of 750 A·MeV projectiles of238U on Be target nuclei. The fully-stripped fission products were separated in-flight by the fragment separator FRS and identified event-by-event by measuring the magnetic rigidity, the trajectory, the energy deposit, and the time of flight. Production cross-sections and fission yields for the new Ni-isotopes are given.

    P53 accumulation and proliferating-cell nuclear antigen expression in human lung cancer (1995)

    Notes: Abstract Mutations in thep53 gene are currently the commonest genetic alterations in human malignant tumors, including non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). Alterations of the protein induced by gene mutations enables the mutant protein to become more stable, resulting in the accumulation of P53 in quantities detectable by immunohistochemistry. Although previous studies document the accumulation of P53 in lung cancer, there is little information regarding the usual frequency of accumulation based on a comprehensive number of lung tumors. A total of 328 paraffin-embedded lung carcinoma specimens were analyzed for P53 accumulation and for the expression of the proliferating-cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) by standard immunohistochemistry. Among 49 SCLC, 35% were positive for p53 and 51% were positive for PCNA. Out of 279 NSCLC, 43% showed a positive P53 immunoreaction and 72% displayed detectable amounts of PCNA. In squamous-cell carcinomas a statistically significant increased accumulation of P53 was found compared to adenocarcinomas (P=0.001). Among the 233 PCNA-positive tumors the relative number of P53-positive specimens was higher compared to the total number of tumors. Since immunohistochemical investigations should contribute to the improvement of the clinical diagnosis and treatment or give information on the prognosis, we conclude from our results that it seems to be legitimate to assess the P53 status exclusively in the specimens positive for PCNA. Immunohistochemical investigations under consideration of the PCNA status yielded good and fast recognition ofp53 mutations leading to intracellular P53 protein accumulation.

    Biologic characterization of human bone tumors I. Ewing's sarcoma (1982)

    Keywords: Ewing's sarcoma ; Type IV collagen ; Factor-VIII-associated protein ; Endothelial differentiation ; Electron microscopy ; Immunofluorescence microscopy

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary Six cases of Ewing's sarcoma were investigated by electron and immunofluorescence microscopy. A layer of basement membrane-like deposits was found between typical principal and secondary tumor cells. To clarify the nature of these ultrastructural deposits, antibodies against collagen type IV were applied to frozen sections of corresponding tumor tissue. This reaction revealed type IV collagen as a regular component of basement membranes in nonneoplastic tumor capillaries, but it was equally able to localize collagen type IV between single tumor cells in capillary-free areas. With the same method, factor-VIII-associated protein, predominantly found in endothelial cells, could be demonstrated in some tumor cells. These results demonstrate that, in addition to anaplastic cells, some tumor cells are found in Ewing's sarcoma that share certain differentiating features with the endothelial cell.

    Detection of MDM2-proto-oncogene in paraffin embedded human bronchial epithelium (1994)

    Notes: Abstract Recently a new proto-oncogene, the murine double-minute 2 (MDM2), has been described. MDM2 becomes oncogenic due to amplification and overexpression. Among other proto-oncogenes MDM2 becomes interesting since MDM2 protein can associate with both mutant and wild type p53 tumor suppressor gene products and thus inhibit p53-mediated transactivation of other genes. Loss of p53 tumor suppressor function is the most frequently observed alteration in human tumors. Immunohistochemical studies investigating the quantity of MDM2 protein in human sarcomas revealed an overexpression in 30% of the specimens. Here we describe the successful use of a monoclonal antibody (IF2) for the detection of MDM2 protein in paraffin-embedded tissue from human lung biopsies. 18 out of 44 specimens (41%), predominantly mucosal epithelial and glandular epithelial cells, stained positive for MDM2. No significant difference was observed between non-cancerogenic cells adjacent to tumor cells and those specimens without any tumor cells but altered by inflammatory processes. In general, the staining pattern was restricted not to the nuclei, but to selected subnuclear compartments, probably representing the golgi apparatus or the endoplasmatic reticulum. Our data support the hypothesis that in addition to its nuclear function of forming a complex with p53, MDM2 may also be secreted and thus have a transcellular effect.
