S-100 protein-immunoreactive cells of the lymph node were examined in the duck and 9 mammalian species, such as guinea pigs, dogs, cats, horses, pigs, goats, cows, Japanese serows and crab-eating monkeys. S-100 protein was detected in follicular dendritic cells (FDC) and tangible-body macrophages (TBM), sinus and parenchymal macrophage (MP), sinus endothelial cells (SEC) and interdigitating reticulum-like cells (IRC) in the node of mammalian species, but not in the duck except nervous elements. S-100-positive FDC and TBM were detected in germinal centers of the nodes in all mammalian species, but immunoreactivity of the other 3 cell types varied according to animal species and individuals of the same species. S-100 alpha subunit was detected in FDC, with the exception of those of the duck and guinea pig. The subunit was also detected in SEC of the dog, cow and Japanese serow. In the guinea pig, a unique S-100 alpha-positive giant dendritic cell (GDC) was found in the subsinusal cortical area. In addition, S-100 immunoreactive lymphocytes were observed in the paracortex-equivalent area of pig nodes. Arterial endothelial cells of the pig and cow were immunoreactive to S-100 beta subunit.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008198 Lymph Nodes They are oval or bean shaped bodies (1 - 30 mm in diameter) located along the lymphatic system. Lymph Node,Node, Lymph,Nodes, Lymph
D008214 Lymphocytes White blood cells formed in the body's lymphoid tissue. The nucleus is round or ovoid with coarse, irregularly clumped chromatin while the cytoplasm is typically pale blue with azurophilic (if any) granules. Most lymphocytes can be classified as either T or B (with subpopulations of each), or NATURAL KILLER CELLS. Lymphoid Cells,Cell, Lymphoid,Cells, Lymphoid,Lymphocyte,Lymphoid Cell
D008264 Macrophages The relatively long-lived phagocytic cell of mammalian tissues that are derived from blood MONOCYTES. Main types are PERITONEAL MACROPHAGES; ALVEOLAR MACROPHAGES; HISTIOCYTES; KUPFFER CELLS of the liver; and OSTEOCLASTS. They may further differentiate within chronic inflammatory lesions to EPITHELIOID CELLS or may fuse to form FOREIGN BODY GIANT CELLS or LANGHANS GIANT CELLS.

D009418 S100 Proteins A family of highly acidic calcium-binding proteins found in large concentration in the brain and believed to be glial in origin. They are also found in other organs in the body. They have in common the EF-hand motif (EF HAND MOTIFS) found on a number of calcium binding proteins. The name of this family derives from the property of being soluble in a 100% saturated ammonium sulfate solution.

D003713 Dendritic Cells Specialized cells of the hematopoietic system that have branch-like extensions. They are found throughout the lymphatic system, and in non-lymphoid tissues such as SKIN and the epithelia of the intestinal, respiratory, and reproductive tracts. They trap and process ANTIGENS, and present them to T-CELLS, thereby stimulating CELL-MEDIATED IMMUNITY. They are different from the non-hematopoietic FOLLICULAR DENDRITIC CELLS, which have a similar morphology and immune system function, but with respect to humoral immunity (ANTIBODY PRODUCTION).

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.

D013045 Species Specificity The restriction of a characteristic behavior, anatomical structure or physical system, such as immune response; metabolic response, or gene or gene variant to the members of one species. It refers to that property which differentiates one species from another but it is also used for phylogenetic levels higher or lower than the species.
