Epithelial markers and differentiation in adnexal neoplasms of the skin: an immunohistochemical study including individual cytokeratins
1995
Applying immunohistochemical procedures for the detection of eight different cytokeratin (CK) polypeptides and other differentiation markers, we compared the staining patterns of normal cutaneous structures with those of benign adnexal tumors (n = 65). Syringomas exhibited a marker pattern highly reminiscent of that seen in normal dermal eccrine ducts (EMA in peripheral cells, CK 10 in intermediate cells, and CK 6, CK 19, and CEA in luminal cells). Nodular hidradenomas exhibited complex patterns suggesting relationship between tumor cells, including clear cells, and normal secretory coil cells (CK 7, CK 8, CK 19, and EMA); however, dermal-duct and epidermoid differentiation were also detect…
Histopathological progression of hidradenitis suppurativa/acne inversa
2021
It is generally acknowledged that the first morphological change of hidradenitis suppurativa/acne inversa (HS/AI) consists of infundibular plugging of the folliculosebaceous apocrine apparatus, which is followed by acute and chronic inflammation, cysts with sinus formation, and fibrosis. Alternatively, it has been hypothesized that HS/AI is primarily a neutrophilic autoinflammatory disease and that the follicular plugging typical of this disease is secondary to inflammation.To review the sequence of the changes that mark the disease development, we have performed a histopathologic study on the surgical material from a series of axillary and inguinal/perineal cases.The histologic material fr…
Patterns of expression of trichocytic and epithelial cytokeratins in mammalian tissues
1988
Abstract Cells forming hair and nail material are characterized by the synthesis of members of a particular group of α-keratin polypeptides (trichocytic cytokeratins, “T cytokeratins”) different from epithelial cytokeratins (“E cytokeratins”). As the precursor cells to trichocytes are derived from fetal epidermal keratinocytes expressing only E cytokeratins, we have studied the patterns of expression of both T and E cytokeratins in developing human hair-and nailforming tissues of different fetal stages, by immunocyto-chemistry using antibodies specific for certain T or E cytokeratins and by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and immunoblotting. In developing hair follicles up to the early …
