An 11-year-old, toy poodle dog was presented with dermatologic lesions and mammary gland tumor (MGT) evaluation. A solitary, lobulated MGT (size $2.5{\times}3.5$ cm) was affecting the 5th left mammary gland. Firm, oval plaque skin lesions were present on the left dorsal carpal area. The skin lesions were alopecic and salivary staining. The dog had historical separation anxiety and excessive licking of skin lesions were observed. Based on the clinical and histopathologic examinations, MGT was diagnosed with mammary complex adenoma and the skin lesions were diagnosed with acral lick dermatitis. Behavior modification treatment using oral clomipramine was effective.

Although action modes of equol and genistein have been extensively studied, their precise roles in tumor cells remain elusive. To address possible effects of these compounds on protein expression in mammary tumor cells, proteins modulated in MCF-7 mammary tumor cells when incubated in absence and presence of 10 uM equol or genistein were identified through 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis, MALDI-TOF MS/MS, and NCBInr database search using Mascot software. Most proteins differentially expressed in MCF-7 cells after treatment with 10 uM genistein or equol were identified as being the same. Exposure to both compounds caused decreased cellular expression of RNA-binding protein regulatory subunit and oncogene DJ1 tubulin beta-1 chain, and increased expression of heterogeneous ribonucleoproteins F and L, KH-type splicing regulatory protein, and translation elongation factor EF-Tu precursor. Genistein and equol at dose used in this study showed common action mechanism.

A 16-year-old female Poodle with multiple mammary masses was referred to the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital of Seoul National University. Radiographic finding indicated a round mass of soft tissue density at the ventral portion of the 4th-7th sternum, which was 7 cm in diameter and presented multiple mineralization within the mass. Cytologically, aspirate of the mammary mass was moderately cellular and revealed well-differentiated osteoblasts with moderately basophilic cytoplasm, various sized and eccentrically placed nuclei and distinct nucleoli. Osteoblasts interspersed with osteoid-suspected pink-staining intercellular matrix. Some cells displayed malignant features such as macronuclei, macronucleoli, binucleation, abnormal mitotic figures, anisocytosis and anisokaryosis. On which the mass was diagnosed as osteosarcoma. Histopathologic examinations of the mass were compatible with a diagnosis of osteosarcoma. The patient was treated with surgery alone. The patient died 45 days later from surgery.

Human mammary epithelial cells have different proliferative statuses and demonstrate a close relationship with age and cell proliferation. Research on this topic could help understand the occurrence, progression and prognosis of breast cancer. In this article, using significance analysis of a microarray algorithm, we analyzed gene expression profiles of human mammary epithelial cells of different proliferative statuses and different age groups. The results showed there were significant differences in gene expression in the same proliferation status between elderly and young groups. Three common differentially expressed genes were found to dynamically change with the proliferation status and to be closely related to tumorigenesis. We also found elderly group had less status-related differential genes from actively proliferating status to intermediate status and more statusrelated differential genes from intermediate status than the young group. Finally, functional enrichment analyses allowed evaluation of the detailed roles of these differentially-expressed genes in tumor progression.

Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is known as a regulator of inflammation and pathogenesis in mammalian organs, but its precise role is little known in the mammary gland. Our initial experiment showed that IL-10 expression levels in mice decreased at the lactation stage otherwise increased at the involution stage. To reveal the effects of IL-10 on the involution of mammary gland, expression profiles of the apoptosis-related genes were examined in transgenic mice expressing human IL-10 as well as in knock-out mice (IL-10-/-). Mild inflammatory legions by lymphocytes were observed in the mammary glands of transgenic lines at the lactation stage. The expression of TRAIL (Tumor necrosis factor-Related Apoptosis-Inducing Ligand) among the apoptosis-related genes was highly elevated in the transgenic mice while others were not significantly changed. Furthermore, TRAIL was down regulated by four fold in the IL-10-/- mice at the involution stage. The expression of DR4 was elevated at the involution stage of normal mice. DR4 was detected in the milk of transgenic mice but absent in that of normal mice. Our results proposed that the elevated IL-10 at the involution stage recruit lymphocytes and induce TRAIL and DR4 genes, therefore, lead to enter involution stage of mammary glands.

To develop a biomarker predicting tumor treatment efficacy is helpful to reduce time, medical expenditure, and efforts in oncology therapy. In clinics, microvessel density using immunohistochemistry has been proposed as an indicator that correlates with both tumor size and metastasis of cancer. In the preclinical study, we hypothesized that vascular morphometrics using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) could be potential indicators to estimate the treatment efficacy of breast cancer. To verify this hypothesis, a 13762-MAT-B-III rat breast tumor was grown in a dorsal skinfold window chamber which was applied to a nude mouse, and the change in vascular morphology was longitudinally monitored during tumor growth and metronomic cyclophosphamide treatment. Based on the daily OCTA maximum intensity projection map, multiple vessel parameters (vessel skeleton density, vessel diameter index, fractal dimension, and lacunarity) were compared with the tumor size in no tumor, treated tumor, and untreated tumor cases. Although each case has only one animal, we found that the vessel skeleton density (VSD), vessel diameter index and fractal dimension (FD) tended to be positively correlated with tumor size while lacunarity showed a partially negative correlation. Moreover, we observed that the changes in the VSD and FD are prior to the morphological change of the tumor. This feasibility study would be helpful in evaluating the tumor vascular response to treatment in preclinical settings.

A five-year-old, female Great Dane dog with edema, localized trauma, mild pain, and lameness of the right hind limb was referred to the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital of Chungbuk National University. This dog had a history of mammary tumor excisions 6 months ago. Abnormal changes were not seen in the values of complete blood count and serum biochemical tests. But pedal direct lymphangiography using aqueous-based radiographic agent showed the obstructed lymph flow in right popliteal lymph node. Based on these observations, the dog was suspected as lymphedema resulted from lymph drainage flilure without any other possibilities of inflammation or other causes. Although recommended chemotherapy and physiotherapy had been applied for resolvinr presented problems for one month, there was no improvement on edema of damaged region and any other clinical signs. Therefore, the necropsy was performed after euthanasia under agreement of the owner of patient. In histopatholofical examination, the most characteristic lesions in the mass of femoral region were diffuse edema fibrosis and neoplastic cells in the lymphatics. Also, the neoplastic cells were very similar to those found in the tumor mass of mammary gland, which had diagnosed as fibrosing carcinoma. These facts suggested that the cause of obstructed lymph flow was the neoplasia in lymphatics of the right hind limb. With these results, a diagnosis of malignant lymphedema was made in this dog.
