Moreover, the lumenae of the seminiferous tubules were more deflated, folded and
vacuolated in the hinny.
This is due to the apparent breakdown and loss of AG cells, which are replaced by
vacuolated areas, or empty spaces surrounded by connective tissue fibers, or else remnants of cell membranes (Fig.
B1, B2, and B3 represent STZ-diabetic group of rats and showed disturbance of the acinar pattern structure, pyknotic nuclei of some acini cells (black arrow) with severe damage; dilation and thickening of blood vessels (dashed arrow) and congestion of the blood vessels (red arrow) and
vacuolated acini (green arrow).
2,6,7) In lipoid cell variant of urothelial carcinoma, the
vacuolated cells show CK and CK7 positivity (Table 1), indicating their epithelial nature.
The cytoplasm was eosinophilic and
vacuolated with a mucin-filled matrix.
jarbua, these alterations included
vacuolated hepatocytes, fatty change, adipocytes,
vacuolated foci, inflammatory response, degeneration of hepatocytes, sinusoidal dilation and frank necrosis were noted in fish specimen collected from Al-Kumrah site as shown in figures (5a,b-6a,b).
1) Necrosis of individual cells and
vacuolated histiocytes scattered in the parenchyma produce a starry sky effect within the neoplasm.
For example, while the stratum corneum is relatively dry and holds between 10 to 15% water; the living epidermis is the sub-tissue that holds water in the skin (40-50%) and the
vacuolated dermis can contain even more water.
In contrast, Antoni B areas demonstrate more loosely arranged
vacuolated cells.
The intima was rich in large
vacuolated cells having central round basophilic nucleus, with abundant foamy cytoplasm in H and E stained sections.
The cells had a large nucleus and showed variable sebaceous differentiation manifested as finely
vacuolated or foamy cytoplasm (Figures 3 and 4).
