A serial section study of nuclear pockets and loops.

A Senoo, Y Fuse, F N Ghadially

    Journal of Submicroscopic Cytology
    |April 1, 1984
    PubMed
    Summary

    Nuclear pockets are common in stomach lymphoma cells, with 10-50 pockets per nucleus. These pockets, containing cytoplasmic or nuclear material, are distinct lesions and not related to chromatin loops.

    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Cell Biology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Nuclear pockets are observed in various cell types.
    • Their presence and significance in stomach lymphoma require detailed investigation.
    • Previous interpretations of nuclear structures like 'chromatin loops' may be inaccurate.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To characterize the morphology and distribution of nuclear pockets in stomach lymphoma.
    • To determine the relationship between nuclear pockets and cytoplasmic/nuclear material.
    • To clarify the nature of 'chromatin loops' in relation to nuclear pockets.

    Main Methods:

    • Serial section electron microscopy was employed.
    • Detailed ultrastructural analysis of tumor cell nuclei was performed.
    • Quantitative assessment of nuclear pocket frequency and distribution was conducted.

    Main Results:

    • All examined stomach lymphoma cell nuclei contained nuclear pockets.
    • Each nucleus typically exhibited 10-50 pockets with a focal distribution.
    • Pockets predominantly contained sequestered cytoplasmic material; some contained nuclear material, suggesting distinct lesions.
    • 'Chromatin loops' were identified as artifacts of sectioning through pockets.

    Conclusions:

    • Nuclear pockets are a consistent feature of stomach lymphoma.
    • The presence of both cytoplasmic and nuclear material within pockets indicates distinct pathological entities.
    • The study refutes the concept of 'chromatin loops' as nuclear extrusions, identifying them as cross-sections of pockets.
