33 tissue sections of cases of primary skin-reticulosis showing different degrees of maturity were analysed by means of Feulgen-cytophotometric methods in regard to their DNA-content. The measurements performed disclosed cytophotometric differences of DNA distribution patterns between mature and less mature/immature forms: Mature forms of reticulosis were characterized by predominantly diploid DNA distribution patterns, whereas less mature/immature forms showed a main distribution in the hyperdiploid-hypotetraploid range respectively atypically...

We herein report an 18-month-old girl who presented with a retroperitoneal mature teratoma that later developed into an endodermal sinus tumor. Her symptoms included an expanding abdominal girth. The serum levels of alpha-fetoprotein were moderately elevated. The excised specimen was a benign mature cystic retroperitoneal teratoma measuring 18 x 11 x 8 cm in size. A hemorrhagic focus measuring 4 cm in diameter was present, which proved to be the focus of an endodermal sinus tumor histologically. The retroperitoneal mature teratoma observed in t...

Cortical (immature) thymocytes are widely reported to express intermediate to high levels of receptors for the lectin, peanut agglutinin (PNA). Light-scatter studies of murine fetal thymocytes stained with PNA or anti-mouse CD4 and CD8 monoclonal antibodies indicated, however, that the most immature CD4-8- (DN) thymocyte subpopulation binds levels of PNA commonly described as PNAlo. Evaluation of the PNA binding characteristics of fetal thymocytes negative for the CD8 antigen confirmed the existence of a major population (approximately 20% of t...

The mature population represents a major market force for the 1990s and the 21st century. Individuals age 65 and older make up a sizable percentage of the population and spend billions of dollars on health-related products and services. Despite the size and apparent attractiveness of this market, it may not be an easy one to penetrate. Pharmacists must recognize the vast differences within this group in terms of what its members want and expect from pharmacies. Only by understanding the unique attributes of the specific subgroups can pharmacist...

Analysis of the survival of mature human eosinophils: interleukin-5 prevents apoptosis in mature human eosinophils. Yamaguchi Y, Suda T, Ohta S, Tominaga K, Miura Y, Kasahara T. Department of Medical Biology and Parasitology, Jichi Medical School, Tochigi-ken, Japan. We and other groups have previously shown that interleukin-5 (IL-5) maintained the viability of mature eosinophils in an in vitro liquid culture system. Mature eosinophils did not proliferate but their survival was maintained in the presence of IL-5. Using this culture system, w...

Dendritic cells (DC) are the principle APC involved in primary immune responses; their major function is to obtain Ag in tissues, migrate to lymphoid organs, and activate T cells. DC are also the first immune cells to arrive at sites of inflammation on mucous membranes, the major site of sexual transmission of HIV. We have demonstrated previously that three populations of cells that can develop a dendritic morphology are present in peripheral blood. Two of these populations can express CD83, a marker of DC, and appear to be at different stages ...
