    Notes: Abstract Cytogenetic analysis of a human embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma revealed a near-diploid karyotype with structural chromosome aberrations not involving the typical rearrangements of rhabdomyosarcomas, plus a large number of double minutes. Comparative genomic hybridization revealed a previously undescribed site of DNA amplification on the short arm of chromosome 1 (band 1p32-33).

    Notes: Abstract Mosaic trisomy of chromosome 7 is known to occur in a variety of non-neoplastic hyperproliferative disorders. In long-term cell cultures established from rheumatic synovium with mosaic trisomy 7, we observed a continuous increase in the proportion of cells with trisomy 7 to over 50% by the 10th in vitro passage. Simultaneous in situ hybridization with a repetitive chromosome-7-specific DNA probe and fluorescent Ki-67 labelling showed a strong correlation between trisomy 7 and an elevated proliferation index in cultured rheumatic synovial cells. Moreover, we observed a fraction of rapidly proliferating cells with up to eight copies of chromosome 7 as the sole cytogenetic change. Frequent somatic pairing of centromeres of two chromosomes 7 in interphase nuclei suggests either atypical non-disjunction with a persisting centromere or selective endoreduplication of chromosome 7.

    Notes: Abstract In the present article, we report, for the first time, a prenatal diagnosis of a congenital mesoblastic nephroma in combination with a post-partum hyperreninemia with hypertension. A newborn was delivered at 35 weeks gestation who had an intrauterine diagnosis of a renal mass as early as 32 weeks gestational age by ultrasound examination. Tumor nephrectomy was performed on day 11 after delivery when an increase in hypertension was observed in the newborn.

    Notes: Summary Nine granular cell tumours were investigated with poly- or monoclonal antisera to neurone specific enolase (NSE), glial enolase (GE), S 100 protein, alpha-1-antichymotrypsin, lysozyme, laminin, neurofilament (NF), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), brain creatine kinase (CK), different cytokeratins (Keratin Dako, PKK1), tissue polypeptide antigen (TPA), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), desmin, myoglobin and leukocyte common antigen (LCA), using immunoperoxidase-methods on formalin fixed paraffin embedded sections. While five tumours from adults show specific cytoplasmic staining for NSE and S 100, three congential tumours, two from the gingiva and one from palatine, show only a weak reaction for NSE, reflecting a possible origin from mature and immature Schwann cells, respectively. However, one subcutaneous tumour from near the clavicule of a ten year old girl differs from the other eight tumours by its specific cytoplasmic staining for alpha-1-antichymotrypsin only, supporting the view that there are granular cell tumours of histiocytic origin. In addition, the five adult NSE-S 100 tumours show strong laminin-immunostaining around the single small or syncytial granular cells, whereas pericellular laminin is not detectable in the histiocytic nor in the three congenital tumours. None of the tumours shows any staining for lysozyme, epithelial, muscular, leukocyte, neurofilament or glial antigens.

    Notes: Abstract  Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate cancer are multifactorial disease processes, involving a growing number of biochemical, genetic and epigenetic factors. Their pathogenesis, however, remains poorly understood. The present review examines current morphogenetic concepts of normal and abnormal growth in the human prostate. This includes the role of basal cells in organogenesis and cancerogenesis, the impact of cell–matrix interactions, and the importance of cellular heterogeneity in tumour progression and hormone-insensitive growth. Knowledge of morphogenesis and morphology is required in any scientific approach to BPH and prostate cancer.

    Notes: Abstract  In situ DNA fragmentation assays have proved to be particularly useful in the detection of apoptosis in routinely processed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections. In the present study, a triple-antigen labelling technique was performed to demonstrate DNA fragmentation (apoptosis), cell proliferation (MIB-1), and phenotypic markers in the same tissue section. The in situ apoptosis assay was conducted with the TUNEL method developed by a avidin-biotin alkaline phosphatase complex (ABcomplex/AP). The proliferation-associated MIB-1 antigen was demonstrated in the second staining sequence by the avidin-biotin peroxidase method (ABC). The phenotypic markers chromogranin A or prostate-specific antigen (PSA) were visualized by the alkaline phosphatase anti-alkaline phosphatase method (APAAP) in the third staining sequence. The feasibility of this triple-labelling technique was tested in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue of prostatic adenocarcinomas from 8 patients with recurrent, hormone-refractory disease. Although these tumours revealed marked neuroendocrine differentiation, cell proliferation and apoptosis were detected exclusively in non-endocrine (chromogranin A-negative) tumour cells that expressed PSA variably. The triple-labelling protocol described here allows the phenotypic characterization of proliferating and apoptotic cell populations in the same tissue section. It may be useful in studies of tissue kinetics in physiological and pathological processes.
