Sarcomas were induced in CFW mice by the iv inoculation of simian virus 40 (SV40) in neonatal animals. Infection with murine malaria parasites, Plasmodium berghei yoelli, decreased the latency and increased the incidence and invasiveness of the tumors. All mice given both SV40 and P. berghei yoelli had sarcomas of the liver and spleen at 9 months of age. At 11 months of age, 70% of the SV40-inoculated mice had sarcomas of the liver indistinguishable from those in the group given both pathogens. Only 1 lung metastasis was seen in the SV40-treated group. The sarcomas contained SV40 T-antigen as revealed by the indirect immunofluorescence technique. Among adult CFW mice given iv injections of SV40, only 2 tumors were found at 11 or 12 months after virus inoculation. Both tumors were in the lungs; 1 was an adenoma and 1 was a papillary adenocarcinoma. Neither gave a positive reaction with the immunofluorescence test.

Cytochrome-c-oxidase (complex IV) was histochemically studied in oncocytic adenoma (n = 10) and carcinoma of the thyroid gland (n = 3), cystadenolymphomas and oncocytic adenomas of the major salivary glands (n = 9), oncocytic neoplasia of the kidney (n = 1) and in 21 parathyroid glands with primary hyperparathyroidism and adenomatous proliferation (n = 17) and secondary hyperparathyroidism with hyperplasia (n = 4). Only in the parathyroids defects of cytochrome-c-oxidase were found being expressed in all 4 glands with hyperplasia (14 defects) and in 5 of the 17 adenomas (11 defects). All defects were confined to foci with oxyphil cell differentiation, the defect areas varying from 0.09 to 21.10 sq mm in hyperplastic glands and from 0.11 to 13.88 sq mm in adenomas, the size of the oxyphil foci varying from 0.12 sq mm-105.38 sq mm. However, not every oxyphil nodule of a gland was devoid of cytochrome-c-oxidase activity. Of 6 predominantly oxyphil adenomas, 4 showed no defects. No defects were observed either in 2 adenomas without oxyphil cells. Further enzymes of the respiratory chain, succinate dehydrogenase (complex II) and ATP synthetase, (complex V) were devoid of defects. In parathyroids with hyperplasia and oxyphil areas, defects of cytochrome-c-oxidase occurred significantly more often and tended to be larger than in adenomas, statistical analysis revealing a significant correlation between the occurrence of defects and the number of oxyphil foci but not with the total oxyphil area.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Sodium-potassium-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase and carbonic anhydrase isozymes I and II were localized immunocytochemically in adenomas, adenocarcinomas, and normal epithelium of human colon harboring non-neoplastic lesions. Non-neoplastic control colon showed carbonic anhydrase I and II in the cytoplasm of the columnar cells lining the upper half of the crypts. Antiserum to sodium-potassium-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase bound to the basolateral but not the apical plasmalemma of columnar epithelial cells. Staining was most intense in the superficial cells, which also contained carbonic anhydrase, but was also evident to a lesser degree in cells deep in the crypts. Adenomas and adenocarcinomas failed to stain for content of carbonic anhydrase but retained basolateral sodium-potassium adenosine triphosphatase positivity. The staining characteristics of colonic neoplasms for the two enzymes involved in the transport function of colonic epithelium thus resembled those of the less mature cells lining the base of normal crypts.

In order to clarify the neoplastic-mesenchymal cell interaction, tumor structures were histologically classified into duct, solid and scattered types, and stromal changes were observed in each type with histochemical techniques. The quantitative and qualitative differences of the stromal components as proteoglycan and collagen were histochemically differed in these morphological features. Ca++ ATPase was ultrastructurally localized on the plasma membrane of myoepithelial cell in salivary glands. The activity of Ca++ ATPase changes in tumor cell differentiation of pleomorphic adenoma and adenoid cystic carcinoma. These results suggest that the stromal components and Ca++ ATPase play an important role on the tumor cell proliferation and differentiation in these tumors.

The distribution of enzymes and laminin was examined in ileal tissue from pigs suffering from intestinal adenomatosis to reveal the nature of the lesion. A disruption of the normal and specific pattern of distribution was found. Thus, the normal ileal epithelium was characterised by brush border enzymes: alkaline phosphatase, magnesium-dependent adenosine triphosphatase (Mg-ATPase), fluoride resistant acid phosphatase and 5'-nucleotidase; enzymes of the basolateral border: Mg-ATPase; and cytoplasmic enzymes: beta-glucuronidase, non-specific esterase and acid phosphatase. Subepithelial fibroblasts seemed to be characterised by 5'-nucleotidase. Laminin was present as a continuous band under the surface and crypt epithelium, somewhat thicker in the former. In contrast, the branching proliferating crypts of intestinal adenomatosis largely lacked enzymes characteristic of both villus and crypt cells. Reactions for the subepithelial components, laminin and fibroblasts were also reduced. The deficient differentiation of the epithelial as well as subepithelial components in porcine intestinal adenomatosis distinguish the condition from crypt hyperplasia and indicate an adenoma-like character.

Enzyme-histochemical investigation of pancreatic carcinogenesis in male Wistar rats treated at the age of 19 days by a single dose of 30 mg azaserine/kg body wt led to the detection of a new 'marker' for the recognition of foci of atypical acinar cells: the Mg2+-dependent ATPase. The two well-known populations of pancreatic atypical acinar cell foci, classified histologically as basophilic and acidophilic foci, showed a decreased and strongly increased ATPase reaction, respectively. The enhanced enzyme activity of the acidophilic foci has been characterized as unspecific nucleoside polyphosphatase. To validate the new marker, comparative quantitative evaluation was performed on haematoxylin and eosin-stained paraffin sections and ATPase-stained cryostat sections of the same pancreata of 25 azaserine-treated rats. Evaluation of basophilic ATPase-deficient foci of small diameter was more reproducible in haematoxylin and eosin-stained sections, while small acidophilic strongly ATPase-positive foci could be detected more reliably by the ATPase staining technique. The number of foci/cm3 pancreas was similar for both staining techniques above a focus diameter of about 100 microns for basophilic foci and 200 micronfor acidophilic foci. There were more acidophilic than basophilic foci/cm3 pancreas, and the acidophilic foci had significantly larger mean focal diameters than the basophilic foci. Together with the strong acidophilic staining of the latter emerging adenoma, this suggests that the acidophilic foci represent a neoplastic cell population progressing eventually to pancreatic carcinoma. The new 'marker' enzyme ATPase may greatly facilitate further investigations into the role of these putative preneoplastic lesions in pancreatic carcinogenesis.

In a stop-experiment using the hepatocarcinogen N-nitrosomorpholine, as well as glycogenotic and related lesions, hepatocellular foci with a different histochemical pattern were identified. The outstanding features of these hepatic foci, which may progress to hepatocellular adenoma, were increased activities of mitochondrial glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (mG3PD), glycogen synthase, pyruvate kinase and glucose-6-phosphatase detected by enzyme histochemistry. Since no decrease in activity of any of the enzymes examined were seen in these foci, compared with normal liver, the term enzymatically hyperactive focus (EHF) is proposed for this type of lesion. Only at the stage of overtly nodular growth did these lesions exhibit some of the characteristic changes seen in nodules developing from glycogenotic foci, namely elevated activities of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, gamma-glutamyl transferase and glutathione-S-transferase P as well as decreased activities of adenosine-triphosphatase, glucose-6-phosphatase and adenylate cyclase. Some of these enzymes have been used widely in morphometric studies as markers for preneoplastic and neoplastic lesions. The inability to detect early EHF may lead to an underestimation of preneoplastic liver lesions in quantitative studies. Although there are apparent differences in the histochemical patterns of glycogen storing foci and early EHF, these differences tend to disappear during progression to overtly neoplastic lesions. In studies comparing the phenotypic alterations in different types of preneoplastic hepatic lesions, the recognition of EHF may contribute to the distinction of obligatory from facultative phenomena during transformation.

This paper describes further characterization of the 170-180-kDa glycoprotein (P-glycoprotein) recognized by the monoclonal antibody MRK 16 in the human adrenal. By electron microscopy, P-glycoprotein was observed in the adrenal cell membranes. However, MRK 16-defined P-glycoprotein was not found in cow, pig, horse, monkey or rabbit adrenal, indicating that MRK 16 recognizes the non-homologous part of P-glycoprotein of various species. Eleven out of 16 adrenal tumors including 4 cases of primary aldosteronism and 7 cases of Cushing syndrome were intensely stained with MRK 16, whereas pheochromocytoma, non-functioning adrenocortical adenoma with no associated increase of serum adrenal-derived hormones and myolipoma of the adrenal were not. Finally, P-glycoprotein-MRK 16-protein A-Sepharose complex derived from human adrenal possessed marked ATPase activity. Taken together, these data suggest that P-glycoprotein may play a physiological role in the human adrenal.

We studied the pleomorphic adenoma of the salivary gland ultrastructurally and cytochemically [Mg2+-activated adenosine triphosphatase (Mg2+-ATPase)], compared it with normal human fetal and adult salivary glands, and evaluated the histogenesis of this tumor. In the adult salivary gland, reaction products shows Mg2+-ATPase activity were localized in the plasma membranes of myoepithelial cells adjacent to the acinar cells or intercalated duct cells. However, in the salivary gland of the 16-week fetus, they were seen along all adjoining plasma membranes of the cells of terminal buds and duct-like structures. The present case of pleomorphic adenoma comprised two histological components: solid and myxomatous areas. Reaction products were seen along adjoining plasma membranes of both light and dark cells in solid areas.

Characteristic enzyme alterations have been demonstrated during the stages of experimental hepatocarcinogenesis in rats. The activity of gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGTPase) in hyperplastic and neoplastic hepatocytes is usually increased, whereas that of canalicular adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) and of glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) is more variable. The activities of these marker enzymes were studied by histochemical techniques in 10 human hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs), 1 liver cell adenoma, and 1 cholangiocarcinoma of liver. In 9 cases, the nontumorous liver was also examined. All HCCs, but not the liver cell adenoma, displayed enzyme patterns that differed from normal. GGTPase activity was markedly increased in 8 HCCs, whereas the activities of G6Pase and ATPase were lost in 6 and 8 HCCs, respectively. These enzyme alterations occurred as 5 of 7 possible combinations, resulting in significant heterogeneity of enzyme phenotypes, similar to that in experimental hepatocarcinogenesis.
