概括
同胞巨细胞 (SGC) 在高度透明细胞细胞癌 (ccRCC) 中并不罕见. 它们的存在与晚期病理阶段和不良预后特征相关,这表明它们可能代表衰老的瘤细胞.
科学领域:
- 在瘤学瘤学.
- 病理学 病理学 病理学
背景情况:
- 合成巨细胞 (SGCs) 是具有上皮原生的新生巨细胞.
- 具有SGC的清细胞细胞癌 (ccRCC) 是一种罕见的微观形态.
- SGCs具有统一的核形态,类似于相邻的单核瘤细胞.
研究的目的:
- 调查ccRCC中SGCs的临床和病理意义.
- 为了确定与病理阶段和核等级有关的SGCs的发病率.
- 评估SGCs在ccRCC中的预后影响.
主要方法:
- 从SGC的16个ccRCC病例的临床和病理数据的回顾性审查.
- 在不同病理阶段 (pT1-pT4) 和WHO/ISUP核等级 (1-4) 中分析SGC发生率.
- 针对ccRCC标记物 (PAX8,CAIX,CD10,维丁) 和Ki-67.的免疫组织化学染色.
主要成果:
- 在晚期病理阶段 (pT3及以上) 和高核等级 (3或4) 的ccRCC中,SGC的频率明显增加.
- 在SGC病例中,在很大一部分病例中观察到亡和淋巴血管侵袭.
- SGC和单核瘤细胞对ccRCC标志物呈阳性;SGC核对Ki-67呈阴性.
- 14名患者的随访数据显示,10名患者没有患病,3名患者患有转移性疾病,1名患者死亡.
结论:
- 在ccRCC中,SGC并不罕见,特别是在具有高核级和晚期病理阶段的瘤中.
- SGC 的存在往往与不良的预后特征共存.
- SGCs可能代表衰老的瘤细胞,它们的存在不应与Fuhrman或WHO/ISUP核等级4等同.

The Retinoblastoma Gene
4.1K
Tumor suppressor genes are normal genes that can slow down cell division, repair DNA mistakes, or program the cells for apoptosis in case of irreparable damage. Hence, they play an essential role in preventing the proliferation of damaged cells.
The first-ever tumor suppressor gene called Rb was identified in retinoblastoma - a rare eye tumor in children. In inherited forms of the disease, a child inherits one defective copy of the Rb gene, which predisposes them to retinoblastoma. However,...

Abnormal Proliferation
4.5K
Under normal conditions, most adult cells remain in a non-proliferative state unless stimulated by internal or external factors to replace lost cells. Abnormal cell proliferation is a condition in which the cell's growth exceeds and is uncoordinated with normal cells. In such situations, cell division persists in the same excessive manner even after cessation of the stimuli, leading to persistent tumors. The tumor arises from the damaged cells that replicate to pass the damage to the...

Renal Corpuscle
2.3K
The glomerulus and Bowman's capsule are two essential components of the nephron, which is the functional unit of the kidney. These microscopic structures play a critical role in the process of blood filtration to produce urine.
Glomerulus: Structure and Function
The glomerulus is a tiny, intricate network of capillaries located at the beginning of the nephron. It's enveloped by the Bowman's capsule and receives its blood supply from an afferent arteriole, which divides into numerous...

Nephrons
2.5K
The kidneys are intricate organs with millions of working units known as nephrons. Each nephron features two major structures: the renal corpuscle, which facilitates blood plasma filtration, and the renal tubule, which handles the glomerular filtrate. Blood supply is directly linked to the nephrons. The renal corpuscle consists of the glomerulus, a capillary network, and the Bowman's capsule, a double-walled epithelial structure that encases the glomerulus. The filtering of blood plasma...
