Histopathologic characteristics of 12 cases of the SC include (1) large solid nest structure, (2) isomorphic and blandness of the epithelial cells in cytoloogy, (3) squamous metaplasia and keratinization in different degrees. (4) infiltrative growth pattern. Immunohistochemical stainings reveal that the cells of the SCs are reacted positive with anti-cytokeratins 12 and 27, anti-S-100P, anti-EMA antibodies in different degrees, and negative with anti-desmin, anti-GFAP, anti-lysozyme antibodies. The positive reactions with anti-CEA, anti-actin, and anti-myoglobin are detected in a few individuals. Follow-up data show the recurrence rate and mortality of the SC are 73% and 18% respectively. The histogenesis of SC and differential diagnosis are also discussed in the paper.展开更多

Methods: Using immunohistochemical hypersensitivity catalyzed signal amplification (CSA), expressions of chemokine receptor CXCR4 and ligand CXCL12 were detected in tissue specimens from 20 cases of primary cancer focus and lymphogenous metastasis of salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma, of which 7 cases were associated with lung metastasis and 3 with lympogenous metastasis. Twenty cases of tongue carcinoma (including 10 cases with lymphogenous metastasis) and 15 cases of mucoepidermoid carcinoma (including 5 cases with lymphogenous metastasis) were used as the malignant control group;and salivary mixed tumor (n=10), tongue leukoceratosis (n=10) and cervical lymph node reactive hyperplasia (n=10) were used as the benign control group. Results: Expression of CXCR4 in the tissues and lymph metastases of oral and maxillofacial salivary ACC, mucoepidermoid carcinoma and tongue carcinoma was significantly higher than that of the benign control group (P<0.05); expression of CXCR4 in the primary focus of ACC was significantly higher than that of the malignant control group; and expression of CXCR4 in the ACC with lung metastasis was 87.1% (6/7), significantly higher than that without lung metastasis(P<0.01). There was evident positive expression of CXCL12 in endotheliocytes of microvessels within cancer and paracancer tissues and significantly high expression of CXCL12 in lymphogenous metastasis(P<0.05). Conclusion: Chemokine receptor CXCR4 and its ligand CXCL12 may be associated with local invasion and lymphogenous metastasis of oral and maxillofacial cancer, especially with lung metastasis of salivary ACC.展开更多
