An electron microscopic study of central nervous system sarcoidosis.

Abstract:

:Although the fine structure of extraneural sarcoidosis is well documented, ultrastructural study of central nervous system (CNS) sarcoidosis has been limited. Electron microscopic (EM) examination of 3 biopsy cases of CNS sarcoid revealed a mixed cellular population of lymphocytes, epitheloid cells, and multinucleated giant cells. The epitheloid and multinucleated giant cells shared common ultrastructural features of nuclei and cytoplasm. In addition, they displayed similar specializations of the cell surface, including subplasmalemmal linear densities (SLD) and villous projections. These findings recapitulate those described in extraneural sarcoidosis and other granulomatous disorders. This supports the contention that the macrophages or epitheloid cells present in CNS lesions are derived from the same mononuclear phagocytic system as their systemic counterparts.

  • 5'-CpG island methylation of the FHIT gene is associated with reduced protein expression and higher clinical stage in cervical carcinomas.

    abstract::Aberrant transcription of the FHIT gene has been observed in many solid tumors, suggesting that 5'-CpG island methylation of the FHIT gene is involved in tumor development. The authors investigated the status of the 5'-CpG island methylation of the FHIT gene and protein expression in a series of 40 cervical carcinomas...
