    Notes: Summary Recent studies have demonstrated the presence of transferrin receptors (Tf-R) in the central nervous system. The present study of Wistar rats with experimentally induced brain injuries, using immunohistochemistry at the light microscopy level, demonstrated the presence of Tf-R in regenerated endothelial cells, reactive astrocytes and in other cells, probably macrophages. Although Tf-R were seen in proliferating cells, Tf-R were also observed in nonproliferating cells, many of them macrophages. The receptors perhaps bind transferrin in edema fluid and play an important role in lesion repair.

    Notes: Abstract  Collagenofibrotic glomerulonephropathy is a new disease entity of unknown pathogenesis, which is characterized by the deposition of type III collagen within the mesangial matrix. We have investigated a case in which many mesangial cells in the type III collagen-deposited glomeruli were α-smooth muscle actin (ASMA) positive and showed an increase of subplasmalemmal filaments, indicating the activation and myofibroblastic transformation. It is suggested that the activated mesangial cells may synthesize the type III collagen deposited in the subendothelial space and mesangial matrix.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung 18 Argyrophilzellencarcinome aus insgesamt 101 Frühcarcinomen des Magens wurden lichtmikroskopisch, elektronenmikroskopisch sowie immunhistochemisch mit Antiseren gegen Polypeptide, CEA, Lysozyme und hCG untersucht. 7 dieser Tumoren enthielten Gastrin und 2 unter ihnen außerdem Somatostatin. In allen 18 Tumoren wurde CEA nachgewiesen, 7 von diesen 18 Tumoren zeigten Lysozyme, darunter 5 auch noch Gastrin. In 4 Tumoren wurde hCG beobachtet, und in 2 aus dieser Reihe von 4 fand sich gleichzeitig Gastrin, CEA, Mucin sowie Lysozyme. Argentaffine Zellen wurden in 7 von 18 Tumoren beobachtet. Drei von 7 Gastrin enthaltende Tumoren hatten mehr oder weniger argentaffine Zellen. Elektronmikroskopisch wurden unterschiedliche Sekretgranula beobachtet und 9 von 18 Tumoren waren D1 oder P Zellen ähnlich. Makroskopisch entsprach die Mehrzahl der Tumoren dem IIc oder IIc+III Typ. Histologisch waren von diesen 18 Tumoren 6 gut differenzierte und 12 wenig differenzierte Adenocarcinome, einschließlich Siegelring-zellencarcinomen. Sie waren öfters im Fundusbereich jüngerer Frauen lokalisiert. Unter Heranziehung unserer schon publizierten Untersuchungsbefunde wird vermutet, daß IIc-Typ Argyrophilzellencarcinome mit dem histologischen Bild des wenig differenzierten Adenocarcinoms dem scirrhösen Carcinom zugeordnet werden kann.
    Notes: Summary Eighteen argyrophil cell carcinomas in 101 early gastric carcinomas were examined histologically, ultrastructurally, and immunohistochemically for polypeptides, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), lysozyme, and human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG). Seven of these 18 tumors had gastrin, and two of seven tumors also contained somatostatin. In all of these 18 tumors CEA were demonstrated. Seven had lysozyme and five of seven tumors also contained gastrin; hCG were present in four of 18 tumors and two of four tumors had gastrin, CEA, mucin, and lysozyme simultaneously. Argentaffin cells were found in seven of 18 tumors. Of the above seven tumors containing gastrin, three had argentaffin cells. Ultrastructurally, several types of secretory granules were noted and tumor cells resembling D1-or P cells were present in nine of the 18 tumors. Macroscopically, many of the tumors showed IIc or IIc+III type. Histologically, the 18 tumors consisted of six well differentiated adenocarcinomas and 12 poorly differentiated adenocarcinomas including signet-ring cell carcinoma. These 12 tumors frequently developed in the stomach of young females. In view of our previous investigations, it was suggested that the IIc-type argyrophil cell carcinoma histologically showing poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma may be related to scirrhous carcinoma of the stomach.

    Notes: Summary The expression of epidermal growth factor (EGF) was examined on various human tissues by radioimmunoassay, immunohistochemistry and Northern blot analysis. Immunoreactive EGF was found in most of the human tissues by radioimmunoassay at various levels. Large quantities of EGF were detected in the kidney and thyroid gland. Immunohistochemically, EGF immunoreactivity was detected mainly in the epithelial cells of the lung, stomach, duodenum, pancreas, kidney, pituitary gland, thyroid gland, mammary gland, ovary, uterus and placenta. Weakly EGF-positive cells were also found in the adrenal gland. The results of EGF-immunostaining were not always consistent with the data from radioimmunoassay. We consider that the amount of EGF measured by radioimmunoassay reflects the density of EGF-positive cells in the tissues and the concentration of EGF in individual EGF-positive cells. Furthermore, EGF mRNA was expressed in the salivary gland, thyroid gland, mammary gland and kidney. It is thus evident that EGF is produced by a variety of human tissues. The kidney expressed exceptionally high levels of EGF mRNA which was about one-tenth of the expression in mouse submandibular gland, suggesting that most of EGF in the urine is produced and secreted by the epithelial cells of renal tubules.

    Notes: Abstract Immunocytochemical examination for mitochondrial protein and cytochrome oxidase was performed to demonstrate oncocytes in normal adenohypophysis obtained from 28 patients of various age. A small number of solitary large epithelial cells showed intense cytoplasmic granular immunoreactivities for mitochondrial protein and cytochrome oxidase. The proportions of the cells positive for the former and the latter ranged from 0% to 5.9% (mean ± SD; 1.5 ± 1.7%) and from 0% to 4.9% (1.4 ± 1.6%), respectively. These cells were either absent or extremely rare in young patients (under 10 years) but tended to increase in number with age (P 〈 0.0001). On the other hand, the mirror section technique showed that most of these cells were negative for adenohypophysial hormones, but a few of them were faintly positive for: α-subunit (8.0%), β-subunits of follicle-stimulating hormone (4.8%), luteinizing hormone (2.5%), thyroid-stimulating hormone (1.0%), and growth hormone (0.5%), and were negative for prolactin and adrenocorticotropic hormone. We considered that these cells represent oncocytes that exist in varying numbers in normal adenohypophysis. It was suggested that oncocytes in normal adenohypophysis share various common features with tumorous oncocytes of pituitary oncocytomas.
