    Notes: A large cyst, lined with ciliated cells (ciliated cyst), was found as a component of a pleomorphic adenoma of the left parotid gland in a 34-year-old Japanese man. The dimensions of the tumor were 25 × 33 mm and it consisted of a solid mass with a centrally located cyst 20 × 23 mm. which contained yellowish-brown material of muddy consistency. The tumor was encapsulated and the solid mass had features typical of a pleomorphic adenoma. The inner surface of the cyst was lined with ciliated cells and scattered mucus-secreting cells in addition to cuboidal-to-flattened cells. In some regions, the neoplastic cells of the pleomorphic adenoma were exposed to the cavity of the cyst. A histological transformation from ciliated cells to pleomorphic adenomatous cells was also observed. These findings indicated that the ciliated epithelium was an element of the tumor. This is the first report, to our knowledge, of a ciliated cyst derived from some elements of a pleomorphic adenoma of the salivary gland.

    Notes: Summary To evaluate the usefulness of microglial markers for routine neuropathological material, we studied formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded human brain tissue with the immunoperoxidase method using the lectinRicinus communis agglutinin (RCA-1) and four monoclonal antibodies (LN-1, LN-2, LN-3, anti-HLA-DR/ alpha). RCA-1 stained resting microglia, but the staining intensity was mostly weak. LN-1 also stained resting microglia in paraffin sections first treated with protease. In contrast to LN-1, RCA-1 stained blood vessels heavily. LN-1 stained resting microglia more markedly than RCA-1 in brains fixed for a prolonged period of time. However, LN-1 recognized a small number of astrocytes in routine paraffin sections. LN-3 reactivity was detected on a few resting microglia, but was intensely expressed on large numbers of reactive microglia in many neurological diseases. Both LN-2 and anti-HLA-DR/alpha labelled microglia, but the reactions were inconsistent. This study suggests that the monoclonal antibodies LN-1 and LN-3 are useful for the demonstration of microglia in paraffin sections, and a combination of these antibodies and the antibody to glial fibrillary acidic protein is recommended in attempting to identify microglia.

    Notes: Summary Peripheral neuronal tumours were studied by the peroxidase-antiperoxidase (PAP) method for the presence of the neurofilament protein (NFP) and neuron-specific enolase (NSE). All cases of ganglioneuromas and ganglioneuroblastomas were positive for NFP and NSE. Both markers were observed only in tumour cells showing differentiation towards ganglion cells. Of the 14 cases of neuroblastoma, 8 were positive for NFP and 12 were positive for NSE. NSE was detected in most neuroblastic tumour cells. However, NFP was found in neuroblasts with signs of differentiation, such as nuclear enlargement, but not in immature, small round cells. NFP was present in cell bodies as well as in cytoplasmic processes of partially differentiated neuroblasts. The majority of pseudorosettes showed no NFP stain. Thus, antibodies against both NFP and NSE are useful in the diagnosis of peripheral neuronal tumours. Moreover, the presence of NFP seemed to be related to the degree of tumour cell differentiation.

    Notes: Abstract Immunohistochemical techniques have been used to investigate microglial reaction in Creutzfeldt-Jakob diseased (CJD) brains. Autopsy cases of six patients with CJD and age-matched controls were studied. Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded brain tissue samples were stained with antibodies against major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II antigen (Ag), leukocyte common antigen (LCA), CDw75, CD68 and glial fibrillary acidic protein. Of the patients with CJD, two with a subacute spongiform encephalopathic type and short-survival periods after onset of the disease showed an increased number of reactive microglia labeled with anti-MHC class II Ag or LCA in the affected cerebral cortex. In advanced cases of the panencephalopathic type of CJD, in which both cerebral atrophy and astrocytosis were marked, the increase of reactive microglia was small. Some vacuoles developing in the neuropil of the CJD patients were surrounded by MHC class II Ag- or LCA-immunoreactive microglial cells. The number of ramified microglia in the affected lesions was decreased, although their number in the hippocampus was not affected. These results indicate that microglia can frequently be involved in the process of CJD and may be activated at the early stage of the disease.

    Notes: Abstract An autopsy case of unusual Pick's diesease in a 61-year-old male is described. Findings included severe atrophy of the frontal and temporal lobes, pyramidal tracts and basal ganglia accompanied by numerous intraneuronal argyrophilic hyaline inclusions. His neurological symptoms were constantly progressive during the 12-year course, characterized by akinesia and emotional incontinence. The inclusions were round, well-demarcated, slightly eosinophilic and intensely argyrophilic bodies in the perikarya, and distributed mainly in the subiculum and Sommer's sector of the hippocampus, amygdala and affected gyri. Immunocytochemically, they contain antigenic determinants of both phosphorylated and nonphosphorylated neurofilaments, but were negative for ubiquitin. Ultrastructurally, they were composed primarily of skeins of neurofilaments intermingled with cell organelles. Tubular profiles studded with granular substances, previously reported as a feature of the generalized variant of Pick's disease, and Hirano body-like lattice structures were occasionally observed in the inclusions. This case represents a slowly progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by fronto-temporal lobar atrophy and might by categorized as a variant of Pick's disease. However, some unusual properties of neuronal inclusions may suggest a different pathogenesis from that in classical Pick's disease.

    Notes: Abstract We report a case of ependymoma with unusual vacuolar features arising in the left occipital lobe of a 2-year-old child. The tumor was composed of cells with single or multiple cytoplasmic vacuoles and clear cells. Some cells showed a signet ring-like configuration. Clear cells were compactly arranged and showed an oligodendroglioma-like appearance. In addition, there were cellular ependymoma-like areas including perivascular pseudorosettes. On immunohistochemistry, glial fibrillary acidic protein and vimentin were mainly detected in cytoplasmic processes, and epithelial membrane antigen (EMA) staining showed granular and small vesicular reactivity. Ultrastructural investigation demonstrated intercellular microrosettes with or without cilia and long zonula adherens-type junctions that are typical of ependymoma. Furthermore, many intracytoplasmic lumina (ICL) were observed. Some ICL had microvilli and some did not. The latter varied in size, and may have fused with each other to develop giant ICL which could correspond to the signet ring-like configuration. Small ICL without microvilli had an appearance similar to that of distended endoplasmic reticula. Serial semithin and ultrathin sections revealed that EMA-positive structures were consistent with ICL containing microvilli and intercellular microrosettes. To determine the presence of unusual vacuolated ependymoma, electron microscopical examination was required. However, light microscopy was useful for detecting EMA-positive microvesicular and granular structures.

    Notes: Abstract An autopsy case of Krabbe's disease in a child aged 6 years 7 months 1s reported. Histologically, globoid cells, loss of myelin, oligodendroglia and axons, and marked gliosis were observed in the white matter. In addition, there was severe neuronal loss in the thalamus, pontine nucleus, dentate nucleus and olivary nuclei. The cerebellar cortex showed extensive loss of granular cells and moderate loss of Purkinje cells. There were numerous eosinophilic inclusion bodies, ranging from 2 to 15 μm in diameter, in the dendrites of Purkinje cells. The ultrastructural findings for the inclusion bodies were consistent with those of giant lamellar bodies. In addition, smaller lamellar bodies were frequently observed in the perikarya and dendrites. Although loss of granular cells was more prominent in the hemispheres than in the vermis, the inclusion bodies were observed in hemispheres but were infrequently observed in the vermis. They were found in degenerated Purkinje cells which had lost afferent fibers. It is considered that these giant lamellar body inclusions are an unusual type of degenerative structure specific to Purkinje cells.
