Spontaneous mesotheliomas in Fischer rats--a histological and electron microscopic study.

Abstract:

:Seventeen mesotheliomas from 395 untreated male Fischer 344/DuCrj rats were studied by light and electron microscopy to define the morphological characteristics of the tumors. In 16 out of 17 rats, mesotheliomas were observed in the abdominal and/or scrotal sac, and the other one was localized on the pleura. Grossly, tumors were yellow-brown with various-sized multiple modules growing irregularly over the surface of the serosa. Microscopically, they varied from complex papillary to sessile nodular growths. Tumor cells were cuboidal to polygonal with round to oval nuclei, and were sometimes arranged in tubule-like structures. Occasionally, the cells contained Mowry's colloidal iron positive materials, which were negative following prior incubation with hyaluronidase. Furthermore, intracellular keratins were detected using the peroxidase-antiperoxidase method. Ultrastructural features of tumor cells included numerous microvilli, a basement membrane, junctional complexes, abundant cytofilaments, dilated rough surfaced endoplasmic reticulum cisternae, and a well-developed Golgi apparatus. The morphological characteristics of these tumors in Fischer 344 rats were consistent with those in humans and with experimentally induced counterparts in rats. The histogenesis of these tumors and the variability in their incidence following oral administration of chemical carcinogens is discussed.
