Immunohistochemical study of 4-hydroxyaminoquinoline 1-oxide-induced rat malignant fibrous histiocytoma. 1990

H Yamamoto, and K Fujishiro

Department of Pathology, Kohno Clinical Medicine Research Institute, Tokyo, Japan.

The primary focus of this experiment was on the investigation of localizations of alpha 1-antitrypsin (alpha 1-AT), alpha 1-antichymotrypsin (alpha 1-ACT), fibronectin (FN) and lysozyme (LY) in tumor cells of experimental malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH). The induction of MFH was conducted by injecting Fischer 344 rats with 4-hydroxyaminoquinoline 1-oxide (4-HAQO). In 46 out of 50 rats, tumors were generated, all of which were diagnosed as MFH and classified into 5 subtypes, according to their histological properties. The presence of alpha 1-AT, alpha 1-ACT and FN in all MFH tumor cells was observed in the tumor cells of various types. Especially, fibroblast-like, histiocyte-like and Touton and/or Epulis type giant cells showed strong reactivity. However, positive reaction of LY in MHF tumor cells was very weak, or the reaction was negative. These findings are consistent with those of human MFH.

D009113	Muramidase	A basic enzyme that is present in saliva, tears, egg white, and many animal fluids. It functions as an antibacterial agent. The enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of 1,4-beta-linkages between N-acetylmuramic acid and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residues in peptidoglycan and between N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residues in chitodextrin.

D005353	Fibronectins	Glycoproteins found on the surfaces of cells, particularly in fibrillar structures. The proteins are lost or reduced when these cells undergo viral or chemical transformation. They are highly susceptible to proteolysis and are substrates for activated blood coagulation factor VIII. The forms present in plasma are called cold-insoluble globulins.

D000514	alpha 1-Antichymotrypsin	Glycoprotein found in alpha(1)-globulin region in human serum. It inhibits chymotrypsin-like proteinases in vivo and has cytotoxic killer-cell activity in vitro. The protein also has a role as an acute-phase protein and is active in the control of immunologic and inflammatory processes, and as a tumor marker. It is a member of the serpin superfamily.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D018219	Histiocytoma, Benign Fibrous	A benign tumor composed, wholly or in part, of cells with the morphologic characteristics of HISTIOCYTES and with various fibroblastic components. Fibrous histiocytomas can occur anywhere in the body. When they occur in the skin, they are called dermatofibromas or sclerosing hemangiomas.
