In our previous work (Alexandrov et al., 1996) was reported that the rat sarcoma cells induced by SR-RSV express two tumor associated antigens (TAA). The one TAA has a molecular weight of 52 kD and is detected by the help of a monoclonal antibody 2C2 only on the outer side of the plasma membrane of the sarcoma cells. The other antigen, with molecular weight of 28 kD, is expressed on the outher and inner side of the membrane. The antigens were isolated as a pure fraction by polyacrylamide electrophoresis and prepared for aminoacid analysis after that. The consisting 16 bound aminoacids were in different amounts. Both antigens are rich in glycine and poor in aromatic and sulphur-containing aminoacids. The presence of glucosamine and galactosamine in the antigens proves their glycoprotein nature. The received data show that the both TAA-s differ not only in molecular weights, place of expression and functional activity, but also in the amount of the bound aminoacids which constitute their proteins.

Background: Circulating tumor cells and clusters (CTC) from soft-tissue sarcoma (STS) that become entrapped in the lung can form micro-metastases and lead to pulmonary metastatic disease. Many patients with localized high-risk STS later develop metastases. Radiation is effective at reducing local recurrence by eradicating microscopic infiltration and satellites in the reactive zone surrounding the primary tumor.

Ossifying fibroma (OF) is a slow-growing, expansive, and benign fibro-osseous neoplasm that is rare in cattle. It mainly affects the craniofacial bones, especially the mandible. Here, we report 2 cases of mandibular OF in Nelore and mixed-breed steers with enlarged masses in the rostral portion of the mandible.

An 8-y-old, spayed female Bernese Mountain Dog was presented to a referral center for evaluation of right thoracic limb lameness and previously suspected Evans syndrome that had been poorly responsive to immunosuppressive therapy. Based on review of examination findings and laboratory data, Evans syndrome was deemed unlikely and hemophagocytic histiocytic sarcoma (HHS) was strongly suspected. On blood smear evaluation, atypical, histiocytic cells were noted, some of which exhibited siderophagia.

To investigate the clinicopathological and genetic features of infantile rhabdomyofibrosarcoma (IRFS) with EGFR kinase domain duplication (EGFR-KDD). The clinical, morphological and immunohistochemical features of three IRFS with EGFR-KDD diagnosed from January 2022 to January 2024 at Department of Pathology, Foshan Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, Foshan, China were retrospectively analyzed using PCR or next generation sequencing technique; and related literature was reviewed. There were 1 male and 2 females, aged at presentation ranging from 1 to 4 years.

Chordomas are a low-to-intermediate-grade slow-growing subtype of sarcoma, but show propensity to grow and invade locally with recurrence and metastasis in 10-40% of cases. We describe the first case of spontaneous regression of a solid tumor (histologically and immunohistochemically proven chordoma) after COVID-19. A female patient with clival chordoma underwent occipitocervical fixation prior to tumor resection.
