All specimens were fixed in 10% neutral phosphoate buffered formalin, and embedded in paraffin. Sections were steined with the avidin-biotin peroxidase complex method for keratin, vimentin, desmin and S-100 protein, the peroxidase-antiperoxidase method for lysozyme, and the direct immunoperoxidase method for IgA and secretory component. Normal salivary glands were employed as controls. 1. Solid portion of pleomorphic adenomas were consisted of the focal hypline cells and scattered the duct cell-like cells. The hyaline cells were positive for vimentin and S-100 protein, and the duct cell-like cells were positive for keratin. But one case was found the bundles of spindle-shaped cells which was similar to myoepithelial cells were positive for actin and another case was consisted of the focal duct cell-like cells were observed. 2. In the tubular portion, the duct-like structures were classified into three types. One type was mono-layered structure, another type was double-layered structure and the other type is duct-like structure in the solid portion. Any inner layer of the duct-like structure were positive for keratin. 3. Double-layered duct-like structures were most common type. Among the double-layered structures, hyaline cells mostly made up the outer layered structures. At times, the spindleshaped cells of the outer layer were found. This structures were similar to intercalated portion of normal salivary glands. In one case, inner and outer layer was consisted of keratin positive cells, but outer layer was steined for keratin stronger than inner. This structure was similar to excretory duct of normal salivary glands. 4. IgA and sc were seen at inner cells and in luminal accumulation of the duct-like structures. 5. In the myxoid regions, stellate cells or spindle cells were positive for vimentin, S-100 protein and partial positive for desmin. In the chondroid regions, chondrocyte-like cells were positive for vimentin and S-100 protein. These results seemed to suggest that pleomorphic adenomas were composed of duct cell-like cells and hyaline cells. Duct cell-like cells consisted of the duct-like structure in order to transport secretion which was similar to the duct of normal salivary glands.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)</p>","PeriodicalId":76770,"journal":{"name":"Tsurumi shigaku.

The observations were made using mainly light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy on the primary dentine excluding the secondary dentine. The results obtained shows that the dentine of the subpulpal wall consists of two parts, a surface layer and the circumpulpal dentine. The surface layer can be divided into two sublayers according to the arrangement of it's matrix fibres. The mineralization pattern was also observed to have another two sublayers which did not correspond with the two fibrous subdivisions. Adjacent to the dentine-cement junction, there is a layer, measuring about 3 microns in thickness, in which the matrix fibres run parallel to the junction. The second layer is characterized by two types of fibre bundles which run perpendicularly to the dentine-cement junction. These outer radially oriented fibres are about 1-2 microns in diameter, and the inner radially oriented fibre bundles are coarse, 10 microns in diameter. In the outermost 10 microns, mineralization begins as an aggregation of mineral granules, and forms a hypermineralized layer which overlays the junctional region between the fibres which are oriented parallel and perpendicular to the dentine-cement junction. Except for the most-superficial layer, mineralizing cones surround the radial fibre bundles at the mineralizing front. The circumpulpal dentine, which forms the floor of the pulp chamber, can also be divided into two layers by the differences in their fibrous matrix. The fibres of both of these layers lay in the plane of the predentine surface. However, in the outer layer the fibres of the matrix are randomly arranged around and between the dentinal tubules, whereas in the inner layer the fibres have a preferred orientation extending radially from a central region between the roots. In the outer layer, calcospherites, which are the units of the mineral aggregation, appear at the mineralizing front. In the inner layer, at the mineralizing front, ridges, measuring approximately 10-15 microns in width, 10 microns in height and 100 microns in length, also have a preferred orientation, 90 degrees to the fibre direction. Microradiographs show that a higher mineralized \"lamellae-like' region exists in the center of each ridge-crest. X-ray diffraction indicates two preferred crystallite orientation, one is parallel to the matrix fibres and the other perpendicular to the predentine surface. The latter seems to be situated in the highly mineralized lamellae. In the circumpulpal dentine, therefore the mineralizing units have a spheritic shape in the outer layer, and a columner shape in the inner layer.
