Primary ovarian tumors are generally uncommon in rats used in toxicologic studies. A malignant Sertoli cell tumor was present in the ovary of a 19-week-old female Sprague Dawley rat. Macroscopically, the mass was white and firm, 10 × 13 × 17 mm in size, and located in the right ovary. Histopathologically, the mass was composed of nests of pleomorphic cells, which formed seminiferous-like tubules separated by a thin fibrovascular stroma. The tubules were lined by tumor cells, which had basally located nuclei and abundant eosinophilic and vacuolated cytoplasm. In some areas, the tumor cells were arranged in a retiform growth pattern, mimicking a rete testis/ovarii. Disseminated metastases to the surfaces of the mesentery, spleen and liver were also present. Immunohistochemically, many tumor cells were strongly positive for vimentin, estrogen receptor α and Ki 67. Some tumor cells were positive for pancytokeratin and inhibin α. These findings closely resemble those of an ovarian-derived human malignant Sertoli cell tumor. From our review of the literature, we believe this is the first report of a spontaneous malignant Sertoli cell tumor in the ovary of a young laboratory rat. This case might provide useful historical control information for rat toxicity studies. 相似文献

A spontaneously occurring subcutaneous mass in the left forelimb of a nine-year-old rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) was examined histopathologically and immunohistochemically. Clinically, edema and hemorrhage were seen around the mass. No connection of the tumor mass to the appendicular skeleton was found. The tumor was arranged in a solid growth pattern and irregular bundles, and neoplastic cells were polygonal to spindle-shape. Osteoid (positive for osteocalcin) and multinucleated giant cells were diffusely or focally seen. Neoplastic cells were positive for vimentin, osterix and Ki-67, indicating the nature of osteoblasts with proliferating activity, but negative for α-smooth muscle actin, desmin or CD204. Based on these findings, a diagnosis of extraskeletal osteosarcoma was made, a very rare tumor both in laboratory and pet rabbits. 相似文献

Spontaneous mammary adenocarcinoma was observed in a 12-week-old female SD rat. A
movable mass in the right cervical region was found at 11 weeks of age, and the rat was
sacrificed the following week. The mass was located in the vicinity of the right salivary
gland and measured 38 mm × 26 mm × 16 mm in gross size. It was a firm whitish mass, with a
cut surface that was also whitish in appearance. Histopathologically, neoplastic cells
formed glandular structures that contained secreted eosinophilic material.
Ultrastructurally, similar secreted material and lipid droplets were in the cytoplasm of
the neoplastic cells. Immunohistochemically, the neoplastic cells were positive for
cytokeratin 8, cytokeratin 18 and estrogen receptor α. Based on these findings, the tumor
was diagnosed as a mammary gland adenocarcinoma, and we therefore conclude that this tumor
type can occur spontaneously in female SD rats as young as 12 weeks of age. 相似文献

This study histopathologically and immunohistochemically investigated a spontaneously
occurring single mass subcutaneously located in the left lower abdomen of a female
BALB/cAJcl−nu/+ mouse at 10 weeks of age. The mass was about 20 × 15 × 10 mm
in size after formalin fixation; nevertheless, it was not detected by clinical observations at
9 weeks of age. H&E staining revealed the tumor origin was epithelial and probably arose
from the mammary gland, and the tumor cells demonstrated a squamous, acinar or polyhedral/basal
pattern. A cell kinetics analysis revealed that many of the tumor cells of the squamous, acinar
or polyhedral/basal component were positive for PCNA and cyclin D1, although there were a few
of TUNEL-positive tumor cells in all of the components. An epithelial/mesenchymal analysis
demonstrated that most of the tumor cells of the squamous and acinar components contained
keratin and E-cadherin; however, most of the tumor cells of the polyhedral/basal component were
less or very weakly positive for these markers. The tumor cells of the squamous component were
negative for vimentin and SMA; however, many of the tumor cells of the polyhedral/basal
component exhibited vimentin. In addition, expression of SMA was confirmed in some tumor cells
of the acinar and basal components. Based on the microscopic and immunohistochemical
characterizations, the tumor was diagnosed to be adenosquamous carcinoma that originated from
the mammary gland with rapid growth, and the tumor cells demonstrated epithelial-mesenchymal
transition-like changes. 相似文献

A subcutaneous mass in the right femoral region of a female F344 Slc/N rat was examined histopathologically. At 83 weeks of age, the animal showed symptoms of severe anemia and nasal bleeding. Necropsy revealed that the mass had invaded the skeletal muscles but did not affect the bones. Multicentric nodules were also observed in the lung. Histopathology revealed a sheet-like growth pattern of polygonal tumor cells with round or comma-shaped nuclei and pale eosinophilic cytoplasm. Osteoid tissue was observed in not only the original lesion but also the metastatic foci in the lung. Each tumor cell was surrounded by argentophil fibers and few collagen fibers. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells were positive for proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), vimentin, osterix and osteocalcin, but negative for keratin, S-100, von Willebrand factor, CD-31, CD-34, desmin, α-smooth muscle actin, lysozyme, α1-antitrypsin and rat malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) antigen. CD-68-positive cells were considered to be infiltrated macrophages because they were negative for PCNA. On the basis of these findings, we diagnosed the present case as extraskeletal osteosarcoma. 相似文献

Extraskeletal osteosarcoma is a very rare tumor in humans and animals including rats. This paper describes a case of extraskeletal osteosarcoma observed in the glandular stomach of an aged female Fischer 344 rat. Grossly, a whitish solid mass was observed at the greater curvature of the glandular stomach. Histologically, the tumor consisted of both atypical polygonal and pleomorphic spindle-shaped cells, with pleomorphic nuclei, and it contained variable amounts of osteoids and small clumps of mature bone tissue. In addition, mitotic figures were frequently observed. Neither invasion of the muscle layer or vessels in the stomach nor metastasis to distant organs was detected. There were no skeletal tumors in the body. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells were positive for osteocalcin, osteonectin, vimentin and S-100 protein. Judging from these results, the present tumor was diagnosed as extraskeletal osteosarcoma. This is the first report of spontaneous extraskeletal osteosarcoma arising from the stomach in a rat. 相似文献

Abstract: A 10‐year‐old spayed female Boxer‐mix was presented with a history of several weeks of soft stools, straining to defecate, inappetance, and lethargy and several days of hematochezia, melena, and dyschezia. Physical examination findings included mild tachycardia and tense cranial abdomen. CBC results indicated moderate mature neutrophilia. Ultrasonographic examination of the abdomen revealed a large mass with complex echogenicity in the cranial abdomen, likely associated with the intestines. Cytologic examination of a fine‐needle aspirate revealed a population of round, stellate, and spindle‐shaped cells arranged individually and in aggregates with occasional cells embedded in an eosinophilic extracellular matrix. The cytologic interpretation was malignant mesenchymal neoplasm with osteosarcoma being the primary differential. Surgical exploration of the abdomen revealed a 10‐cm‐diameter mass located at the intestinal mesenteric root. The mass occluded blood flow to portions of the gastrointestinal tract. The dog was euthanized due to the nonresectable nature of the tumor. Histopathologic examination revealed an expansile poorly demarcated mesenchymal neoplasm composed predominantly of spindloid and pyriform cells, occasionally embedded in a matrix compatible with osteoid. The diagnosis was extraskeletal osteosarcoma of the intestinal mesenteric root, only rarely reported in dogs. 相似文献

A meningeal osteosarcoma was diagnosed in a dog displaying neurologic signs compatible with a space-occupying cerebellar lesion. Gross lesions, restricted to the brain, consisted of a solitary, compressive mass attached to the dura mater overlying the left cerebellum. The mass was composed of single and multinucleated, atypical polygonal cells that lined or rested within lacuna surrounded by eosinophilic, mineralized matrix. The matrical component stained dark green-yellow to blue with Movat's pentachrome stain, deep blue to red with Heidenhain aniline blue stain, and brown-black with Von Kossa stain. Results of these stains were interpreted as tumor osteoid. Foci of dural mineralization and osseous metaplasia were present at the point of tumor attachment. The microscopic observations were interpreted as an osteosarcoma of extraskeletal origin. To our knowledge, these findings represent the first documented case of a meningeal osteosarcoma in a domestic animal species. 相似文献

Chordomas of the tip of the tail in 6 ferrets were examined using histopathological,
histochemical and immunohistochemical procedures. Histopathologically, round neoplastic
cells containing numerous cytoplasmic vacuoles of varying sizes, categorized as
“physaliphorous cells”, were observed in the amorphous eosinophilic or pale basophilic
myxoid stroma. Physaliphorous cells were arranged in lobules and in a “chordoid” or
“cobblestone” manner. The neoplasms were diagnosed as benign chordoma without local
invasion and metastasis. Histochemically, the cytoplasm of small neoplastic cells was
positive for periodic acid-Schiff stain and alcian blue (AB) pH 2.5 and pH 1.0 stains, but
negative for hyaluronidase digestion-AB pH 2.5 stain. All neoplastic cells were strongly
stained with colloidal ion, negative for high iron diamine AB pH 2.5 and toluidine blue pH
2.5 stains, and positive for Mayer’s mucicarmine stain. Immunohistochemistry using
antibodies directed against low-molecular-weight cytokeratins (CK18, CK19 and CK20),
vimentin and mucin core protein (MUC5AC) revealed that neoplastic cells had both
epithelial and mesenchymal elements. The expression of low-molecular-weight cytokeratins
suggests that neoplastic cells acquired the properties of glandular epithelial cells and
produced epithelial mucus. Furthermore, the expression of cytokeratins, vimentin, S100
protein, brachyury and epithelial membrane antigen indicates that the neoplasms were
equivalent to the classic type of human chordoma. Therefore, immunohistochemistry using
these antibodies can be useful for the characterization of ferret chordoma. 相似文献

Extraskeletal osteosarcoma is extremely rare in humans and animals, especially in rodents. This is the first case report on spontaneous extraskeletal osteosarcoma in the neck skeletal muscle of a Crlj:CD1 (ICR) mouse (36 weeks, dead). Necropsy revealed a solid white mass located in the neck skeletal muscle (scalenus muscle). Histological examination showed that the tumor consisted of atypical polygonal cells, a small osteoid clump, and bone tissue. Mitotic figures were observed. Serial sections showed that neoplastic cells lacked clear invasive proliferation to adjacent normal skeletal muscle and continuity with normal bone tissue. Immunohistochemical analysis showed that the neoplastic cells were positive for osteocalcin, osterix, vimentin, and S-100. Based on these results, the tumor was diagnosed as extraskeletal osteosarcoma in the neck skeletal muscle. 相似文献

Background
Pampas deer, Ozotoceros bezoarticus (Linnaeus 1758), is a South American grazing deer categorized as "near threatened". However, knowledge about pampas deer behavior including courtship and mating is scarce and incomplete. The aim of this study was to characterize the courtship and mating behavior of the pampas deer (Ozotoceros bezoarticus), an endangered species from South America.Methods
We performed focal observations of 5 males allocated at the Estación de Cría de Fauna Autóctona Cerro Pan de Azúcar, Uruguay, 4 times a day from 5 to 20 minutes each time on a daily basis from February to May. During that period we recorded all courtship and mating behaviors, as well as quantified the frequency of the specific behaviors shown. As mating were rarely observed, we recorded that behavior when it was observed in the context of other studies performed in the same population during the following 2 years.Results
During the observation period we recorded 928 courtships and 5 mating periods. In addition, we recorded 10 more matings performed during other studies, totaling 15. The duration of each mating calculated from the 15 recordings was 3.9 ± 0.4 s, and the total period of female receptivity (from first to last mating acceptance) was 8.2 ± 1.1 min. Main observed courtship behaviors in males were “chase” and “ostentation”, while the most observed close to mating were “chinning”, “raised head” and “anogenital sniffing”. The most observed behaviors in females during the mating period were “vulva exhibition” and “move away”.Conclusion
This is the first detailed report in pampas deer mating behavior. Estrus lasted only 8 min accepting only 3 short copulations per estrus. However, female behavior during courtship can be characterized as highly proceptive. 相似文献12.

Highly lung metastasizing model of canine osteosarcoma in nude mice was established from five subcutaneous implantation cycles of lung tumor deposits. The selection of cells with increased metastatic properties from the parent POS canine osteosarcoma cell line recovered medium sized and polygonal Highly Metastasizing POS cells (HMPOS). The doubling time of HMPOS and POS in culture averaged 30 +/- 1.2 hr and 32 +/- 1.3 hr respectively, and their cell growth patterns in vitro were comparable to their in vivo growth patterns. HMPOS cells produced more tumor deposits (> 20 nodules, > 1 -mm in diameter) of various sizes with replacement of lung tissues at 12 weeks after implantation. POS cells produced fewer and smaller lung deposits (< 10 nodules, 1-mm in diameter). Tumor size and number of metastatic tumor deposits showed a regular association. HMPOS cells developed an osteoblastic type of cellular differentiation subcutaneously and in the lungs. HMPOS micrometastasis along the alveolar walls and blood vessels at 4 weeks averaged 6-7 small tumor locus. Each micrometastatic locus contained an average of 5-7 tumor cells, and developed a pleomorphic osteoblastic type of cellular differentiation. An average of 4 macrometastatic nodules could be seen at 6 weeks, composed of an average of 23 tumor cells, 10 nodules at 8 weeks, 12 nodules at 10 weeks and 20 nodules at 12 weeks. These model provides an opportunity for the evaluation of new treatments against canine lung metastatic osteosarcoma in a nude mice model. 相似文献

The common marmoset (Callithrix
jacchus) is now widely used in various
research fields, including toxicology. However,
information about the background pathology of this
species is scarce. Here, we report a case of
rhabdomyosarcoma that spontaneously occurred in a
common marmoset. A 44-month-old male common
marmoset was euthanized due to bilateral hind limb
paralysis. At necropsy, a 2×2×5-cm intramuscular
mass was observed in the lower right back.
Histologically, the mass was mainly composed of
interlacing bundles of spindle-shaped tumor cells.
Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells were
positive for myogenin, desmin, vimentin and
alpha-smooth muscle actin. Ultrastructurally, the
tumor cells contained bundles of myofilaments with
Z-band-like structures. Thus, the tumor was
diagnosed as a rhabdomyosarcoma. To our knowledge,
this is the first report of spontaneous
rhabdomyosarcoma that was definitely diagnosed in
the common marmoset. 相似文献

The present report describes a rare case of spontaneous tumor of the salivary gland in a male Sprague-Dawley rat. The clinically confirmed mass rapidly developed in the cervical region between 19 and 21 weeks of age, and the animal was subsequently euthanized. At necropsy, a well-circumscribed nodule approximately 7 × 6 cm in diameter was found at the site of the salivary gland. The cut surface of the nodule was lobulated and soft and had a pinkish tan fish-flesh appearance. One large cyst (approximately 3 × 2 cm in size) containing reddish fluid was also present in the nodule. Histopathologically, the tumor, with a partially lobulated structure, was surrounded by a thin fibrous capsule. The majority of tumor cells formed a diffuse solid sheet structure that mainly consisted of small ovoid or spindle-shaped cells. In the tumor periphery, some cells were arranged in nest-like structures. Small duct-like structures lined with a monolayer of cuboidal epithelial cells resembling an intercalated duct or large polygonal clear cells with a myoepithelial component were also observed. Mitotic figures and necrotic foci were frequently observed in solid areas. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells were positive for cytokeratin, epithelial membrane antigen, vimentin, p63, α-smooth muscle actin and calponin. The cells were negative for calcitonin, synaptophysin and chromogranin A. On the basis of these findings, the tumor was diagnosed as an epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma originating from the luminal epithelial cells and myoepithelial cells in the submandibular gland. 相似文献

For at least thirty years chronic pneumonia of suckling lambs has occurred in many sheep flocks in the north-eastern part of Iceland, Thingeyjarsýsla. Owing to the retarded growth rate of affected lambs, the farmers named it “kregda” which means “the poor eater”. A similar syndrome has also been observed in some areas of South Iceland (Gíslason 1963). 相似文献

Three antibiotic formulations, oxytetracycline (A) in propylene glycol and oxytetracycline (B) in polyvinyl pyrrolidine and pyrrolidino-methyltetracycline in an oil suspension were given to calves by the intramuscular route. Only oxytetracycline (A) appeared to cause much pain after injection.
The half-time elimination (t½cl) for oxytetracycline (A) was 14.000 ± 3.580 h for oxytetracycline (B) 10.290 ±5.159 h and for pyrrolidinomethyltetracycline 8.160 ± 0.920 h. The rate of elimination `beta slope” for oxytetracycline (A) was 0.052 ± 0.012 h−1 for oxytetracycline (B) 0.077 ± 0.261 h−1 and for pyrrolidinomethyltetracycline 0.086 ± 0.010 h−1. The Y intercept of the “beta” elimination slope Cos (μg/mL) for oxytetracycline (A) was 2.490 ± 1.040, for oxytetracycline (B) 3.463 ± 1.874 and for pyrrolidinomethyltetracycline 2.852 ± 1.360.
Pyrrolidinomethyltetracycline appeared to have a two component elimination curve, however, only the “beta slope” was used for the calculations.

This report describes a case of spontaneous malignant pinealoma in a 90-week-old male Wistar rat. The tumor mass occurred in the deep cerebral parenchyma and no intact pineal gland was observed in the area between the posterior-dorsal median line of the cerebrum and the cerebellum. The tumor was characterized by a large nodular proliferation occupying the central area of the brain, extending from the dorsal surface to the base of the brain, corresponding to the thalamus. The tumor cells had round to irregular oblong nuclei approximately 5–17 μm in diameter and showed faintly or moderately eosinophilic cytoplasm and indistinct cell boundaries. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells were positive for synaptophysin and partially positive for neuron-specific enolase (NSE). The tumor showed malignant features including cellular pleomorphism, high mitotic index, necrotic foci, and invasive and extensive growth and was, therefore, diagnosed as an extremely rare malignant pinealoma in the deep cerebral parenchyma. 相似文献

A cell line, MCO-Y4, was established from a mammary gland osteosarcoma of a 16-year-old female mongrel dog. Histopathologically the tumor was composed of osteoblastic cells with an osteoid meshwork and chondroid matrix. The mean doubling time of the cells at the 93rd passage was 32.39+/-4.66 hr. Immunohistochemically, the osteoblastic and chondroblastic cells were positive for bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-2/4 and BMP receptor (BMPR) II. The cultured cells were spindle in shape during the growth and the confluent phases. No tumor matrix was detected in the culture dish by alcian blue staining or von-Kossa silver impregnation. MCO-Y4 cells on the chamber slides showed intense immunoreactivity for BMP-2/4 and BMPR II. Noggin, an antagonist for BMP-2/4, showed the growth inhibition on MCO-Y4 cells. In addition, fibronectin might be potential for stimulating growth of MCO-Y4 cells. When transplanted into severe combined immunodeficiency mice, the cells formed tumors consisting of solid proliferation of osteoblastic and fibroblastic cells with woven-bone trabeculae. These tumor cells were intensely positive for BMP-2/4 and BMPR II. Our results suggested that the cell line might be useful for studying the role of BMPs in canine osteosarcoma and the mechanism of ossification. 相似文献

A 7-year-old spayed female domestic shorthair cat was referred for evaluation of a localized growing mass on the left flank. Cytologic and histologic findings suggested that the mass was an extraskeletal osteosarcoma. Radiography failed to reveal any association between the lesion and the axial or appendicular skeleton. Because of the large size of the tumor, the cat was treated with carboplatin prior to and after surgery (hemipelvectomy) to ensure that surgical margins were free of neoplastic cells and to prevent systemic dissemination of malignant cells. The tumor has not recurred during a 2-year follow-up period. 相似文献

A cardiac mass (3 × 5 × 3 cm) was detected at the base between the right
auricular wall and right vena cava of a slaughtered 6-month-old female mixed-breed pig
during a meat inspection. The tumor comprised infiltrative prominent interweaving
fascicles of Schwann cells with Verocay bodies. Moreover, the ganglion cells were
scattered or aggregated throughout the neoplastic tissue. The ganglion and Schwann cells
had neither cellular atypism nor mitosis. On the basis of the bearing site as well as the
morphological and immunohistochemical features, this is the first case of a cardiac
ganglioneuroma in a pig. 相似文献
