A pathological study on eosinophilic lymphfolliculoid granuloma (Kimura's disease).

The present study included 46 cases of eosinophilic lymphfolliculoid granuloma(kimura's disease), which occurred mainly in males between the ages of 11 to 52 years. The common sites were the soft tissue of the head and neck region. Although recurrence was not infrequent, the clinical course was benign. Laboratory findings revealed eosinophilia and frequent elevation of serum IgE. The histological characteristics consisted of proliferation of lymphoid follicles and granulation tissue with infiltration of eosinophils, mast cells, plasma cells, lymphocytes, and histiocytes, some degree of vascular proliferation, and fibrosis. With the appliance of unlabeled peroxidase-antiperoxidase method, a marked reticular reaction of IgE was confirmed in the germinal center of the folliculoid structure, and there were quite a number of IgE producing plasma cells. Many mast cells with IgE bound to their cell surface were seen in the granulation tissue. Toluidine blue staining and electron microscopy revealed fairly well preserved granules in mast cells, being quite different from the changes seen in type I allergy.

Computed tomography of multicystic kidney.

A case of multicystic kidney diagnosed by computed tomography (CT) and confirmed at surgery is presented. On CT, the lesion appeared as an abnormal mass composed of numerous walled, low density areas of varying sizes consistent with the surgical finding of congenital multicystic kidney.

Genes coding for the structure of the acid phosphatases in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

The phoE locus, one of the loci in which mutations lack the activity for repressible acid phosphatase, was found to be the structural gene for the enzyme by examining the enzymic characteristics of repressible acid phosphatase activity using cell extracts prepared from the leaky phoE mutants, the PHOE revertants and the PHOE recombinants between the different phoE mutants. Other evidence which strongly suggests that the phoC locus is coding for the constitutive acid phosphatase was obtained by a similar investigation. Although the phoC and phoE loci are tightly linked, they were separable by meiotic recombination.
