Tracheobronchial submucous glands can be considered the pulmonary equivalent of minor salivary glands and therefore they can develop most of the tumours originated in these. Nevertheless, in spite of the wide distribution of this kind of glands along the tracheobronchial tree, pulmonary salivary gland-like neoplasms are not very frequent. Among them, the most frequent are mucoepidermoid and ade...
Myoepithelial carcinoma is a well-known tumor of salivary gland, representing 1% of all salivary gland tumors. They have also been reported in other sites as skin/soft tissue, breast and lung. This paper reports a rare case of primary myoepithelial carcinoma in the liver, as well as discusses the findings of immunohistochemistry. The clinical manifestations, imaging characteristics, and histopa...
Primary epithelial myoepithelial carcinoma of lung is a rare entity and is thought to arise from the submucosal bronchial glands distributed throughout the lower respiratory tract. Because of the rarity of this tumor, we describe one case of epithelial myoepithelial carcinoma arising in the bronchus intermedius and presenting as an endobronchial mass. A 57-year-old male patient presented with a...
The effect of calcium on oxytocin-induced contraction of myoepithelial cells was visualized with NBD-phallacidin, a fluorescent stain for filamentous actin. In the absence of oxytocin, the cells appeared relaxed; long, branching processes radiated from the cell bodies. In the presence of 50 nM-oxytocin, myoepithelial cells contracted into smaller spoke-shaped bodies in which the arms were short...
Myoepithelial cells are normally present in the breast localized between epithelial cells and the basal lamina of secretory elements of the mammary duct system (1,2). Tumors derived from these cells have been described in skin, salivary glands, breast and lungs (1,2). Adenomyoepithelioma (AME) of the breast is a rare lesion, and usually affects adult female patients (1,2). Rare cases have been ...
background: the breast cancer is the most prevalent cancer among women, on the other hand absence of myoepithelial cells play a pivotal role in pathogenesis of this cancer. thus we aimed to investigate the possible abilities of the molecular assay technique to find a relationship between mammary serine protease inhibitor (maspin) gene expression possibly secreted by myoepithelial cells, grade o...
INTRODUCTION Infiltrating myoepithelial carcinoma remains a rarely encountered lesion of the breast. The few cases that have surfaced firmly document the histopathology of this tumor, but its cytologic characteristics seemingly have been described in only one other report. CASE PRESENTATION Here we present the cytologic findings from a case of infiltrating myoepithelial carcinoma of the breas...
The normal duct-lobular system of the breast is lined by two epithelial cell types, inner luminal secretory cells and outer contractile myoepithelial cells. We have generated comprehensive expression profiles of the two normal cell types, using immunomagnetic cell separation and gene expression microarray analysis. The cell-type specificity was confirmed at the protein level by immunohistochemi...
The somatic gonad of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans contains a myoepithelial sheath, which surrounds oocytes and provides contractile forces during ovulation. Contractile apparatuses of the myoepithelial-sheath cells are non-striated and similar to those of smooth muscle. We report the identification of a specific isoform of actin depolymerizing factor (ADF)/cofilin as an essential factor ...
While significant effort has been dedicated to the characterization of epigenetic changes associated with prenatal differentiation, relatively little is known about the epigenetic changes that accompany post-natal differentiation where fully functional differentiated cell types with limited lifespans arise. Here we sought to address this gap by generating epigenomic and transcriptional profiles...
