Condyloma acuminatum was found on the penile shaft and glans of a wild-caught cynomolgus monkey. The characteristic cauliflower-like, digitated lesions corresponded histopathologically with epidermal hyperplasia, hyperkeratosis, hypergranulosis, pallor of the mid-spinous zone, and crowding of keratinocytes. Electron microscopy revealed 10 intranuclear viral particles. In situ hybridization studies using human DNA probes (pan-Human Papillomavirus [HPV] 6/11, HPV 16/18, and HPV 31/33) all failed to hybridize. Polymerase chain reaction using papillomavirus probes MY09, MY11, GP5, and GP6 failed to amplify HPV DNA. We conclude that this lesion likely is a viral-induced condyloma but that the virus is not detectable by using presently available human or monkey papillomavirus probes.

D008854	Microscopy, Electron	Microscopy using an electron beam, instead of light, to visualize the sample, thereby allowing much greater magnification. The interactions of ELECTRONS with specimens are used to provide information about the fine structure of that specimen. In TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY the reactions of the electrons that are transmitted through the specimen are imaged. In SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPY an electron beam falls at a non-normal angle on the specimen and the image is derived from the reactions occurring above the plane of the specimen.	Electron Microscopy

D002467	Cell Nucleus	Within a eukaryotic cell, a membrane-limited body which contains chromosomes and one or more nucleoli (CELL NUCLEOLUS). The nuclear membrane consists of a double unit-type membrane which is perforated by a number of pores; the outermost membrane is continuous with the ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM. A cell may contain more than one nucleus. (From Singleton & Sainsbury, Dictionary of Microbiology and Molecular Biology, 2d ed)	Cell Nuclei,Nuclei, Cell,Nucleus, Cell
