Intermediate filamentous proteins in adult granulosa cell tumors. An immunohistochemical study of 25 cases.

Adult granulosa cell tumors (AGCTs) are classified as sex cord-stromal tumors of the ovary. However, they may be confused with other primary ovarian neoplasms. Intermediate filaments, specifically vimentin and cytokeratins, have been identified in AGCTs by immunohistochemistry performed on frozen and formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue and two-dimensional electrophoresis. Recently, however, immunohistochemical demonstration of cytokeratin has been used as supporting evidence of epithelial rather than sex cord-stromal differentiation in ovarian neoplasia. To investigate further intermediate filamentous proteins in AGCTs, 25 such tumors were studied by immunohistochemistry in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections. Cytoplasmic staining was observed, frequently in a distinct punctate, paranuclear pattern, in 14 of 25, 14 of 25, and seven of 17 tumors using monoclonal antibodies AE1/AE3, CAM 5.2, and 35BH11, respectively, which share the ability to detect low molecular weight cytokeratins. Staining for cytokeratin was not seen in any of the 17 tumors studied using the antibody 34BE12. Twenty-three of 25 tumors showed strong positivity for vimentin, characteristically seen as globoid paranuclear staining. Nine of 25 tumors contained desmin, which was restricted to the intermixed spindle cell, cortical type stromal component of the tumors. These patterns of immunoreactivity for intermediate filaments, particularly cytokeratins, are different than in common epithelial tumors of the ovary and may be useful in the differential diagnosis of ovarian neoplasia. Moreover, the immunohistochemical detection of cytokeratins should not be used as a criterion for excluding AGCT from the differential diagnosis of an ovarian neoplasm.     

Friction, capacitance and transepidermal water loss (TEWL) in dry atopic and normal skin

The biophysical properties of non-eczematous skin at three locations in atopics and non-atopics were characterized using non-invasive physical methods. Skin friction was measured with a newly developed sliding friction instrument, the degree of hydration with a capacitance meter (Corneometer CM 820), and the transepidermal water loss (TEWL) was determined using an Evaporimeter EP1. The areas examined (dorsum of the hand, volar forearm and lower back) showed lower values of friction and capacitance in the atopic patients than did corresponding sites in the normal controls. In most areas a significant correlation between friction and capacitance was found. The TEWL was increased in atopic skin, but TEWL seems to correlate neither to friction nor to capacitance.     

Functional overload attenuates plantaris atrophy in tumor-bearing rats

Background  

Late stage cancer malignancies may result in severe skeletal muscle wasting, fatigue and reduced quality of life. Resistance training may attenuate these derangements in cancer patients, but how this hypertrophic response relates to normal muscle adaptations in healthy subjects is unknown. Here, we determined the effect of resistance training on muscle mass and myosin heavy chain (MHC) isoform composition in plantaris muscles from tumor-bearing (TB) rats.

In vitro effects of Nd:YAG laser radiation on blood: A quantitative and morphologic analysis

Use of the Neodymium: yttrium -aluminum -garnet (Nd:YAG) laser to recanalize stenosed arteries may require delivery of the beam through blood. To assess the degree of hemolysis and debris formation, 54 samples of citrated whole blood were exposed to Nd:YAG laser radiation of varying powers (10, 20 and 30 watts) and duration (1, 2.5 and 5 seconds). Compared to control samples which were not subjected to laser light, there was no significant decrease in hematocrit (41 to 40.5 +/- 5%), hemoglobin concentration (13.8 to 13.8 +/- .06 g/1OO ml), or increase in "free" hemoglobin concentration. Debris weight (from .45 +/- .002 to .45 +/- .002 mg), as well as the white blood cell count, was also not significantly changed (from 5,400 to 5,200 +/- 240 WBC/cm). Light microscopy examination of debris from samples of whole blood, washed erythrocytes, and platelet-rich plasma subjected to the laser at 30 watts for five seconds failed to demonstrate the presence of membrane denaturation of blood elements, as compared with the morphologic changes observed in whole blood samples exposed to a "hot tip" rather than Nd:YAG laser radiation. Nd:YAG laser can be used intravascularly without fear of hemolysis or debris "micro-embolization" up to a power of 30 watts for five seconds.
