We examined the clinical and functional significance of histologic classification of thymic epithelial neoplasms proposed by the World Health Organization (WHO), based on an analysis of 146 consecutive tumors derived from 141 patients and 47 normal thymuses derived from children ranging in age from 1 to 9 years. Invasive tumors were seen in 12.5%, 38.6%, 40.0%, 69.4%, 80.0%, and 100% of type A, AB, B1, B2, B3, and C primary tumors, respectively. All of six recurrent or metastatic lesions were type B2 tumors. Myasthenia gravis was associated in 0%, 6.8%, 40.0%, 55.6%, 10.0%, and 0% in patients with type A, AB, B1, B2, B3, and C tumors, respectively. The average number (×106) of tumor-associated CD4+CD8+ cells present in 1 g of tumor tissue was 1.5, 391.1, 1041.7, 333.9, 24.5, and 0.2 in type A, AB, B1, B2, B3, and C, respectively, and it was 1168.2 in the normal thymuses. Thus, type B1 tumor retained the function to induce CD4+CD8+ double-positive cells at a level comparable to that of the normal thymic cortical epithelial cells, followed by type AB and type B2 tumors. Type A and B3 tumors had this function at a barely detectable level, and type C tumor was nonfunctional. WHO histologic classification was shown to reflect the clinical features and the T-cell-inducing function of thymic epithelial tumors.

The Zn-alpha 2-glycoprotein (Zn-alpha 2-GP) is present at a high concentration in the seminal plasma and at significant levels in other human body fluids. Its precise localization, however, has remained unclear, as well as its physiological and pathological significance. The present study reports the immunohistochemical localization of this protein in normal adult human tissues. Localization of the reactive product to anti-human plasma Zn-alpha 2-GP antibody was demonstrated in the following cells: luminal and basal cells of the prostate gland, luminal epithelial cells of the acini and of some ducts of the mammary glands, luminal cells of the secretory portion of the eccrine and apocrine sweat glands, serous cells of the salivary, tracheal, and bronchial glands, acinar cells of the esophageal glands, exocrine acinar cells of the pancreas, hepatocytes of the liver, and epithelial cells of the proximal and distal tubules in the kidney. The present results suggest that Zn-alpha 2-GP exerts some unknown but fairly widespread exocrine function and may be produced in the various epithelial cells tested. Hepatocytes are also suggested to be a source of the protein in the blood plasma.

Serrated adenoma of the colorectum is a recently proposed entity characterized by a saw-toothed structure of hyperplastic polyp and cytologic atypia of tubular adenoma. To clarify the role of apoptosis in morphogenesis of serrated adenoma, we investigated apoptotic indices and expression of apoptosis-related antigens in the tumor cells. Thirty-eight serrated adenomas were examined by the nick-end DNA labeling method and immunostained for CD95 (Fas), bcl-2, bax, and p53. Thirty-seven hyperplastic polyps, 48 tubular adenomas, and 16 sections containing normal colonic mucosa were similarly examined for comparison. The apoptotic indices in the upper and middle zones of the crypts of serrated adenomas and hyperplastic polyps were lower than those of normal colon mucosa and tubular adenomas with statistically significant differences. The CD95 expression was diffusely observed throughout the epithelium of normal crypts and tubular adenomas, whereas it was reduced in serrated adenomas and hyperplastic polyps. The bcl-2 expression was confined to the basal crypts in the latter two lesions but was diffuse throughout the neoplastic epithelium in tubular adenomas. The bax expression was increased in serrated adenomas and tubular adenomas but was decreased in hyperplastic polyps. Overexpression of p53 protein was observed in 50% of serrated adenomas, none of hyperplastic polyps, and 14% of tubular adenomas. These findings suggest that inhibition of apoptosis is caused by reduced CD95 expression in serrated adenomas and hyperplastic polyps, which may induce the characteristic saw-toothed structure in these lesions. Based on the similarities and differences between serrated adenoma and hyperplastic polyp observed in the present study, a progression from the latter to the former lesion may be postulated.

In our earlier results, we demonstrated that cells expressing the complement C5aR are vulnerable since abnormal activation of C5aR caused apoptosis of these cells. In this study, we demonstrate that activation of C5aR by antisense homology box (AHB) peptides synthesized in multiple antigenic peptide form and representing putative interaction sites of the C5a/C5aR evoked calcium influx in TGW neuroblastoma cells. Dose-dependent inhibition of the response was found when the cells were pretreated with C5a, suggesting that C5aR was involved in this process. In addition, pretreatment with monomeric forms of the AHB peptides resulted in attenuation of the calcium signals, supporting the idea of the role of C5aR in this process. Cells of a neuron-rich primary culture and pyramidal cells of rat brain slices also responded to the AHB peptide activation with an increase in the intracellular calcium level, showing that calcium metabolism might be affected in these cells. TUNEL staining demonstrated that C5aR-mediated apoptosis could be induced both in cells of the primary culture as well as in cortical pyramidal neurons of the rat brain. In addition, we investigated expression of C5aR in the hippocampal and cortical neurons of human brains of healthy and demented patients using two anti-human C5aR Abs. Pyramidal cells of the hippocampus and cortex and granular cells of the hippocampus were immunopositive on staining. Although staining was also positive in the vascular dementia brain, it disappeared in the brain with Alzheimer’s disease. These results provide further support that C5aR may be involved in neurodegeneration.

Diagnosis of gastric malignant lymphoma remains a challenge, especially when the tissue source is endoscopic biopsy specimens. Once an atypical lymphoid infiltrate is found, demonstration of clonality is the key to establishing a diagnosis of the disease. For this purpose, we evaluated the usefulness of immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded endoscopic materials from 20 patients with B-cell malignant lymphomas. Template DNA for PCR was obtained by microdissecting Giemsa-stained sections using a serial hematoxylin and eosin section as a guide. Clonal rearrangement bands were demonstrated in 15 of 20 cases (75%) by PCR, whereas expression of monotypic light-chain mRNA was detected in seven of 20 (35%) by in situ hybridization and monotypic light-chain restriction in four of 20 (20%) by conventional immunohistochemistry. Although less sensitive than PCR, in situ hybridization was useful for localizing the expression of target mRNAs with cellular accuracy and with low background staining. In addition, two cases were found to be monoclonal only by in situ hybridization, and not by PCR. The results showed that clonal proliferation is detected with the greatest sensitivity with PCR using small routinely processed biopsy specimens and that a difficulty with the PCR method in terms of cellular localization was partially overcome using a microdissection procedure that provided at least tissue-level accuracy.

Syphilis is an unexpected diagnosis in the stomach. To establish the diagnosis, evidence of Treponema pallidum in the gastric lesion is necessary. However, it is sometimes difficult to prove the presence of the organisms by conventional methods. The authors describe two cases of early gastric syphilis with pseudolymphomatous histology in which T pallidum gene was detected by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using paraffin biopsy sections. The gastric lesion of each case endoscopically and histologically simulated that of malignant lymphoma. However, no clonality was proved by immunohistochemistry or PCR gene rearrangement analysis. No spirochetal organisms were detected with certainty by Warthin-Starry silver stain, whereas the organisms were shown by immunofluorescent stain in one patient. A PCR study showed the treponemal DNA in both patients, and its validity was supported by a direct sequencing and a restriction enzyme digestion. Positive results of serological tests for syphilis and regression of the lesions after antisyphilitic treatment were confirmatory of the diagnosis. Gastric syphilis should be considered as a differential diagnosis when an atypical lymphoid infiltrate fails to show monoclonality. The present PCR method would be helpful in showing T pallidum using routinely processed small biopsy specimens as the tissue source.

A plasma cell tumor of the stomach with unusual histology is reported. Macroscopically, the tumor formed two ulcers in the gastric body, and microscopic examination revealed proliferation of plasma cells producing immunoglobulin G kappa monotypic immunoglobulin, with metastatic infiltration in some perigastric lymph nodes. Most of these plasma cells had various‐sized Russell bodies in the cytoplasm; hence the tumor may be called Mott cell tumor. The Russell bodies showed a strong affinity to concanavalin A by lectin immunohistochemistry, compared with those in reactive Mott cells. In addition, Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection was proved by Gimenez stain and immunohistochemistry. The mixture of some centrocyte‐like cells and presence of reactive lymph follicles with follicular colonization by tumor cells suggest that this lesion may be a variant of mucosa‐associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma in association with H. pylori infection. The patient has shown no evidence of recurrence of the tumor after 11 years of follow up.
