Canine histiocytic diseases.

چکیده
Canine histiocytic diseases are an emerging spectrum of diseases characterized by proliferations of histiocytic cells. Nonneoplastic histiocytic disease (reactive histiocytosis, comprising cutaneous and systemic histiocytosis) is uncommon. Neoplastic histiocytic diseases include cutaneous histiocytoma, which is a benign histiocytic tumor, and localized and disseminated histiocytic sarcoma (previously known as malignant histiocytosis), which are malignant diseases. The differentiation of histiocytic diseases can be challenging. This article outlines the characteristics of each disease entity and details the clinicopathologic, histologic, immunohistochemical, prognostic, and therapeutic differences among them.

Canine histiocytic proliferative disorders include a wide spectrum of diseases characterized by different biologic behaviors. The etiology and pathogenesis of these diseases are largely unknown. The clinicopathologic, morphologic and immunophenotypic characteristics of canine localized and disseminated histiocytic sarcoma were examined in 39 dogs. Rottweilers, Bernese Mountain Dogs, and retriev...
متن کاملPersistent Morbillivirus Infection Leads to Altered Cortactin Distribution in Histiocytic Sarcoma Cells with Decreased Cellular Migration Capacity
Histiocytic sarcomas represent rare but fatal neoplasms in humans. Based on the absence of a commercially available human histiocytic sarcoma cell line the frequently affected dog displays a suitable translational model. Canine distemper virus, closely related to measles virus, is a highly promising candidate for oncolytic virotherapy. Therapeutic failures in patients are mostly associated with...
متن کاملUnraveling the Mysteries of Histiocytic Diseases
Canine histiocytic malignancies represent a group of neoplasms with shared morphological features but diverse cellular origin and potentially divergent biologic behavior. The malignant histiocytic disease complex was first recognized in Bernese Mountain Dogs and it has been considered to be familial in this breed. Subsequently, improved diagnostic techniques expanded the list of predisposed bre...
متن کاملEvaluation of the drug sensitivity and expression of 16 drug resistance-related genes in canine histiocytic sarcoma cell lines
Canine histiocytic sarcoma (HS) is an aggressive tumor type originating from histiocytic cell lineages. This disease is characterized by poor response to chemotherapy and short survival time. Therefore, it is of critical importance to identify and develop effective antitumor drugs against HS. The objectives of this study were to examine the drug sensitivities of 10 antitumor drugs. Using a real...
متن کاملInhibition of Survivin Influences the Biological Activities of Canine Histiocytic Sarcoma Cell Lines
Canine histiocytic sarcoma (CHS) is an aggressive malignant neoplasm that originates from histiocytic lineage cells, including dendritic cells and macrophages, and is characterized by progressive local infiltration and a very high metastatic potential. Survivin is as an apoptotic inhibitory factor that has major functions in cell proliferation, including inhibition of apoptosis and regulation o...
