[APUD cells and apudomas].

D I Golovin, A A Nikonov

    Arkhiv Patologii
    |January 1, 1981
    PubMed
    Summary

    APUD (amine precursor uptake and decarboxylation) cells synthesize and store bioactive amines and peptides. Apudomas, tumors of these cells, share features but vary in behavior, requiring specific diagnostic methods.

    Area of Science:

    • Endocrinology
    • Oncology
    • Cell Biology

    Background:

    • Amine precursor uptake and decarboxylation (APUD) cells are characterized by the synthesis and storage of bioactive amines and peptides in neuroendocrine-type secretory granules.
    • Apudomas are tumors derived from APUD cells, exhibiting shared morphological and functional traits despite heterogeneity in clinical behavior and histogenesis.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To elucidate the key characteristics of APUD cells and their associated tumors (apudomas).
    • To highlight the diagnostic challenges and methodologies for apudomas.

    Main Methods:

    • Assessment of endocrine function of tumor cells.
    • Application of histochemical and electron microscopic techniques.
    • Consideration of clinical and biochemical indices of hormonal activity.

    Main Results:

    • APUD cells possess distinct secretory granule characteristics.
    • Apudomas demonstrate heterogeneity in clinical presentation and origin.
    • Diagnosis necessitates a multi-faceted approach combining cellular and clinical data.

    Conclusions:

    • The diagnosis of apudomas requires comprehensive evaluation, integrating cellular morphology, endocrine function, and clinical biochemical data.
    • Understanding the APUD cell system is crucial for diagnosing and managing these diverse tumors.
