상처회복은 염증, 재상피화 그리고 기질의 재형성등이 관여하는 복잡한 과정이다. 이중 재상피화에 관여하는 각질화세포의 이동경로를 분석하기 위하여 무당개구리 피부 상처유도 후 투과전자현미경과 cytokeratin에 대한 조직면역화학법을 이용하였다. 정상조직의 cytokeratin발현은 기저층의 세포들과 선상피에서 확인되었다. 상처 유도후 3시간 조직에서, 기저세포층에서 강한 반응이 관찰되었고, 1일과 2일 사이에서는 재생되는 각질화세포에서 강한 면역반응이 확인되었다. 상처반응 중기인 7일부터 10일 사이에서도 재생된 세포의 기저층세포에서 강한 반응이 일어났다. 19일경과의 조직에서는 기저층과 유극층의 세포들에서 cytokeratin의 발현이 증가하였다. 따라서, 재상피화에 관여하는 각질화세포는 기저층의 세포로부터 시작하여 상처부위로 이동하여 과립층과 유극층으로 분화됨으로서 재상피가 진행되었다.

This study is a report about a specific patient whose primary stomach adenocarcinoma metastasized to uterine cervix adenocarcinoma. A thirty-nine year old female patient was initially diagnosed as having metastatic adenocarcinoma in the supraclavicular lymph node. Upon further examination, she was diagnosed with stomach adenocarcinoma. 8 months later, a cervix punch biopsy was performed. The stains used for examination were H&E stain, PAS stain, Alcian blue stain, Mucicarmine stain, Papanicolaou's (Pap.) stain, and as immunohistochemical stains, cytokeratin 7 and 20 were done. In the H&E stain, the tumor cells showed prominent and eccentric nuclei, thin nuclear membrane in abundant mucous cytoplasm, and cylinder shape. In the PAS stain, intracytoplasmic mucin vacuoles were stained with pink, and in Alcian blue and Mucicarmine stains, intracytoplasmic mucin vacuoles were stained with blue and red. As in the above results, she was diagnosed with undifferentiated adenocarcinoma. As found on the cytologic smear preparation of the uterine cervix stained by Papanicolaou's stains, the background was relatively clear, the number of malignant cells was relatively low, and large and eccentric nuclei in abundant cytoplasm were observed. Upon observing the tissue preparation of the uterine cervix biopsy by H&E stain, a clear background, large and eccentric nuclei, and a signet ring cell types were observed, and the number of malignant cells were fewer than in the primary uterine cervix adenocarcinoma. The vacuoles in cytoplasm were observed. The nuclear membrane and chromatin were thick and very rough, and upon observation by cytokeratin 7 and 20 of immunohistochemical stain, the tumor cells indicated a positive rate of 70% and 20%, respectively. According to these results, also she was diagnosed with metastasized uterine cervix adenocarcinoma. In summary of the results of pathologic findings on stomach biopsy and cytologic, histopathologic, and immunohistochemical finding on uterine cervix biopsy, the adenocarcinoma of her uterine cervix could assert the adenocarcinoma of signet ring cell type that was metastasized from the primary undifferentiated adenocarcinoma in stomach.

연구목적: Cytokeratin 19는 기관지의 상피세포와 같은 단순 또는 가중층상피세포에 국한된 40KD의 산성 분자로 면역조직학적 검사를 통해 cytokeratin 19가 폐암 조직에서 많이 발현되는 것으로 알려져 있다. Cytokeratin 19에 특징적인 단일 클론 항체 BM 19-21과 KS 19-1을 이용한 면역방사계수법, CYFRA 21-1을 이용하여 cytokeratin 19분절이 폐암 특히 편평상피세포암의 진단에 유용한 표지자가 될 수 있다는 보고가 있어 폐암 표지자로서 CYFRA 21-1의 유용성을 조사해 보기 위하여 본 연구를 하였다. 방법: 저자 등은 영남대학교 의과대학 부속병원 내과에 1993년 4월부터 1994년 8월까지 입원한 원발성 폐암 환자 39명(편평상피 세포암 19명, 선암 11명, 소세포암 9명)을 폐암군으로, 비악성 호흡기질환자 15명(폐결핵 8명, 만성 폐색성 폐질환 3명, 폐렴 2명, 만성 폐색성 폐질환과 폐결핵이 동반된 환자 2명)을 대조군으로 하여 새로운 폐암 표지자의 가능성이 있는 CYFRA 21-1의 유용성을 조사하였다. CYFRA 21-1의 측정은 면역방사계수측정 kit인 ELSA-CYFRA 21-1을 사용하였다. 결과: 폐암의 조직학적 분류에 따른 CYFRA 21-1의 혈중 측정치는 편평상피세포암이 $20.2{\pm}4.7ng/ml$, 선암이 $7.2{\pm}1.6ng/ml$, 비소세포암이 $15.5{\pm}4.7ng/ml$로 모두 대조군의 $1.7{\pm}0.5ng/ml$보다 유의하게 증가되어 있었다(p<0.01). 또한 비소세포암중 편평상피세포암에서 선암보다 유의하게 증가되어 있었다(p<0.05). 그러나 소세포암에서는 $2.9{\pm}0.9ng/ml$로 대조군과 유의한 차이가 없었다. CYFRA 21-1의 정상 범위를 3.3ng/ml 이내로 하였을때 소세포암에서는 민감도 11.1%, 특이도 65.2% 였으나, 비소세포암에서는 민감도 70.0%, 특이도 62.5%였고 이 중 편평상피 세포암인 경우 민감도 73.7%, 특이도 75%였으며 선암인 경우 63.6%, 78.9%로 산출되었다. 결론: CYFRA 21-1은 비소세포암의 종양 표지자로 유용성이 있을 것으로 생각되며, 특히 편평상피 세포암의 진단에 도움이 될 것으로 생각되었다.

Breast metastases of extramammary malignant neoplasms are rare, with an incidence of 0.3%-2.7% among all malignant mammary tumors. Breast metastases from gastric carcinoma are very rare (<0.1%), and this event is even rarer during pregnancy. Herein, we describe a 39-year-old Caucasian woman with a history of an Epstein-Barr virus-associated gastric carcinoma (EBVaGC) that was characterized by prominent tumor infiltrating lymphocytes. Three years after undergoing radical surgery, the patient developed bilateral breast nodules during her pregnancy. A breast biopsy was performed, and histology confirmed a diagnosis of EBVaGC; tumor cells showed positivity for cytokeratin 8/18 and E-cadherin, and negativity for cytokeratin 7, cytokeratin 20, cytokeratin 5/6, caudal type homebox 2, androgen receptor, mammaglobin, gross cystic disease fluid protein-15, and estrogen and progesterone receptors. We also discuss the main diagnostic pitfalls. To our knowledge, this is the first report of an EBVaGC with lymphoid stroma that developed breast metastases during pregnancy.

Ameloblastoma is the most common odontogenic tumor of the jawbones, but the origin of this tumor has been remained to be unproven. Cytokeratins (CKs) are specific intermediate filament of epithelial cells, and vimentin is expressed in mesenchymal cells. The immunohistochemical detection of different CKs and vimentin has made it easier to know the origin of tumor. Paraffin-embedded tissue sections from 15 ameloblastomas and 1 ameloblastic carcinoma were used for immunohistochemical evaluation of CK 7, 8, 13, 14, 19 and vimentin. Their expression is evaluated in different tumor cells, which are observed in different type of tumors. In the follicular and reticular subtype, central stellate cells of tumor nests expressed CK 8, 14, 19 and peripheral columnar cells expressed CK 14. CK 7, and 13 were not expressed. Vimentin was detected in fibrous stroma around tumor nest, not in tumor cells. The tumor cells of ameloblastic carcinoma expressed CK 7, 14 and 19, but CK 8 was more weakly stained than that in ameloblastoma. Central stellate cells and peripheral columnar cells of acanthomatous subtype showed same expression pattern with others. Meta plastic squamous cells expressed CK 8, 14, 19 and keratinizing squamous cells expressed CK 13, 19. CK 7 and vimentin were not detected in tumor cells and vimentin was expressed in fibrous stroma. Most of the tumor cells of ameloblastoma showed CK 14 and CK 19 and did not express CK 7 and vimentin. These findings were similar to the immunophenotype of dental lamina. And these results will be beneficial to differential diagnosis of odontogenic tumors and other kind of tumors arising at the oral cavity.

Sixteen mammary gland tumors were collected from Seoul National University and Kangwon National University. The average age of the bitches with mammary gland tumor was 10 years. Total 17(60.7%) out of 28 tumor masses observed in 4th and 5th glands. Classification of these tumors according to Hampe and Misdorp were simple adenoma, complex adenoma, benign mixed tumor, papillary adenocarcinoma, solid adenocarcinoma and malignant mixed tumor. Immunohistochemical reaction of the intermediate filaments against normal canine mammary gland showed as followed; anti-cytokeratin 18 was strong and anti-cytokeratin 14 was moderate to the luminal epithelium. Anti-cytokeratin 14 and anti-pancytokeratin to the myoepithelium were showed strong, but anti-vimentin was weak in reactivity. Anti-vimentin to the interstitial cells was represented strong reactivity. The origin of cartilage in mixed tumor of canine mammary gland was studied immunohistochemically with antibodies against intermediate filament. In mammary gland mixed tumors, cartilage tumor tissues were surrounded with the irregularly demarcated three zones composed of adjacent star shaped cells in myxoid areas, proliferative spindle shaped cells and basal located proliferated cells. From basal proliferated cells to star shaped cells, the immunohistochemical reactivity of myoepithelium specific anti-pancytokeratin was decreased gradually and the reactivity of interstitial cell specific anti-vimentin was increased gradually. Based on these immunohistochemical staining patterns, we suggested that the origin of cartilagenous components in canine mammary gland mixed tumor is most likely to the proliferation and metaplsia of myoepithelium.

Objectives: Odontogenic keratocysts (OKCs) have a tendency to recur and possess an aggressive nature. the aim of the present study was to evaluate cytokeratin (CK) expression patterns as a method for the differentiation between dentigerous cysts (DCs) and OKCs, as their histomorphologic appearance are often indistinguishable. Materials and Methods: Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections of 43 OKCs and 38 DCs were immunohistochemically analyzed with i-solution in a quantitative manner in order to evaluate the immunoreactivity of CK 10, 16 and 17. Results: CK 10 expression was evident in 79.1% of OKCs but found in only 18.4% of DCs (P<0.05), and CK 10 expression was observed to occur more frequently in OKCs (mean 25.45%) than in DCs (2.19%) (P<0.05). The expression of CK 16 was evident in 79.1% of OKCs but found in only 7.9% of the DCs (P<0.05) and CK 16 expression was observed to occur more frequently in OKCs (mean 4.33%) than in the DCs (0.61%) (P<0.05). The expression of CK 17 was evident in 88.4% of OKCs but seen in only 15.7% of the DCs (P<0.05) and CK 17 expression was observed to occur more frequently in OKCs (mean 31.11%) than in the DCs (2.37%) (P<0.05). Conclusion: The immunohistochemical detection of CK 10, 16 and 17 can be utilized as a valuable biomarker for use in distinguishing between OKCs and DCs, which have clinically significant differential diagnoses.
