Immunohistochemical staining for claudin-1 can help distinguish meningiomas from histologic mimics.
The histologic distinction between meningiomas and other tumors of the central nervous system occasionally can be difficult. Claudin-1 is a tight junction-associated protein recently shown to be expressed in anaplastic meningiomas. The purpose of this study was to determine whether immunohistochemical staining for claudin-1 could help distinguish meningiomas from histologic mimics, compared wit...
متن کاملA Case of Melanoacanthoma: Immunohistochemical Staining Using VECTOR® NovaRED™ to Distinguish Melanocytes from the Cutaneous Pigment.
Melanoacanthoma is a rare benign mixed tumor of both keratinocytes and melanocytes. Although some authors said that it is a rare variant of seborrheic keratosis, it has clinical and histological features distinct from seborrheic keratosis. It has large dendritic melanin-laden melanocytes throughout all levels of epidermis showing a disruption of melanin transfer from the melanocytes to neighbor...
متن کاملImmunohistochemical detection of CD34, E-cadherin, claudin-1, glucose transporter 1, laminin, and protein gene product 9.5 in 28 canine and 8 feline meningiomas.
The variation in histologic pattern of meningiomas can make their diagnosis challenging. The immunohistochemical profile of 28 canine and 8 feline meningiomas was examined. Tumor types included anaplastic (6 dogs), angiomatoid (1 cat), fibroblastic (3 dogs, 1 cat), meningothelial (1 dog), microcystic (2 dogs), myxoid (3 dogs), psammomatous (4 cats), and transitional (13 dogs, 2 cats). The autho...
متن کاملHistologic Mimics of Mycosis Fungoides
Just as mycosis fungoides is a disease with many different clinical and histologic manifestations, so too are there many inflammatory conditions that mimic this cutaneous lymphoma. Sometimes the best way to “rule out” a diagnosis of mycosis fungoides is to make a firm diagnosis of another condition. The following entities may be confused with mycosis fungoides on histologic grounds, and represe...
متن کاملImmunohistochemical staining patterns of canine meningiomas and correlation with published immunophenotypes.
This study examined immunohistochemical staining patterns for several meningioma variants involving either the brain or spinal cord of dogs. Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue from 15 tumors was obtained. The selected tumor group included seven meningothelial, three transitional, two malignant (anaplastic), one myxoid, one papillary, and one osteomatous meningiomas. Tumors were evaluated ...
