    Immunohistochemical analysis of CD31, CD36, and CD44 antigens in human omentum
    (Saudi Med J, 2004) Yildirim, A; Akkus, M; Nergiz, Y; Yuruker, S
    Objective: Milky spots in the human omental tissue are known to be consisting of lymphocytes, macrophages and mast cells. Our goal was to evaluate the relationship of lymphoid cells and macrophages with vasculature and stromal components. Methods: In this study we examined the biopsy specimens obtained from the adult patients whom were operated for different purposes in the General Surgery Department of Dicle University Hospital, Ankara, Turkey. We used CD31 as an endothelial cell marker, CD36 which is known to react with microvascular endothelium and adipocytes, and CD44 which is a hyaluronic acid receptor using an indirect immunoperoxidase technique. Results: We observed that CD31 was mainly reactive with vascular endothelial cells and platelets, CD36 was reactive with microvascular endothelium and adipocytes and CD44 was mainly expressed by the endothelial cells of high endothelial venules, fibroblasts in stromal compartments and by large mononuclear cells. Conclusion: We determined the structural and immunophenotypic features of omental lymphoid tissue components stressing vascular and stromal elements, and we briefly discussed the significance of the expression of these molecules in the determined locations.

    Structural and immunophenotypic characterization of high endothelial venules in rat and human tissue
    (Saudi Med J, 2004) Akkus, M; Yuruker, S; Dagdeviren, A; Asan, E
    Objective: To present additional data on high endothelial venule (HEV) structure and immunophenotype. Methods: We used the zinc iodide-osmium tetroxide technique (ZIO), which is a metallophilic fixation and staining technique to examine HEVs at light and electron microscopic levels as this technique was previously reported to be reactive with cells in HEVs. Tonsils and lymph nodes were obtained from the Surgery and Otorhinolaryngology Departments, Hacettepe University Hospital, Ankara, Turkey during 2002 and 2003. An indirect immunohistochemical technique was used to examine frozen human tissue samples. Results: Organelle rich high endothelial cells, sheet-like processes of pericytes surrounding HEVs, structural relation of pericyte processes with fibroblastic reticular cells, an unusual multivesicular body-like organelle within high endothelial cells were presented. Expression of a large panel of defined and yet non-defined antigens on HEVs are also presented using an indirect immunoperoxidase technique. Conclusion: Presence of some of these antigens on HEVs was previously reported while no previous report is available for others. Significance of the expression of these antigens in HEVs, structural hints for trans endothelial migration of lymphocytes and their travel along the reticular cell meshwork is briefly discussed.
