    Adenoid cystic carcinoma (AdCC) of the breast is an uncommon but distinct neoplasm composed of a dual cell population polarized around true glandular (luminal) spaces and pseudolumina. The aim of this study was to clarify whether various immunohistochemical markers (CK7, EMA, CD117, p63, calponin, CD10, S100, CK5/6, CK14, vimentin, and type IV collagen) can distinguish between the two cell types in classical AdCC (n = 14) and in collagenous spherulosis (n = 5). The sensitivity and specificity of these 11 markers to distinguish luminal from abluminal cells were evaluated using a curve created by plotting the true-positive rate (sensitivity) against the false-positive rate (1 - specificity) at threshold settings of 0, 10, 50, and 70 %. The most sensitive and specific markers for luminal cells in AdCC were CK7 and EMA; those for abluminal cells were type IV collagen, p63, and vimentin. CD10 and S100 did not act as abluminal markers in AdCC. CK5/6, one of the basal/myoepithelial markers, was expressed more frequently in luminal than in abluminal cells of AdCC. Thus, CK5/6 immunostaining resulted in a reverse expression pattern, analogous to what we recently documented in clear cells in mammary adenomyoepithelioma. In conclusion, compared with myoepithelial/abluminal cells of normal breast or collagenous spherulosis, the neoplastic abluminal cells of classical AdCC are characterized by enhanced vimentin and attenuated CD10 and S100. Furthermore, the luminal cells of AdCC show a unique aberrant staining pattern for CK5/6 that may aid in the differential diagnosis.博士(医学)・乙第1389号・平成28年11月24日© Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2016The final publication is available at Springer via http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s00428-016-1963-

    The Hyper Suprime-Cam SSP survey: Overview and survey design

    Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) is a wide-field imaging camera on the prime focus of the 8.2-m Subaru telescope on the summit of Mauna Kea in Hawaii. A team of scientists from Japan, Taiwan, and Princeton University is using HSC to carry out a 300-night multi-band imaging survey of the high-latitude sky. The survey includes three layers: the Wide layer will cover 1400 deg2 in five broad bands (grizy), with a 5 σ point-source depth of r ≈ 26. The Deep layer covers a total of 26 deg2 in four fields, going roughly a magnitude fainter, while the UltraDeep layer goes almost a magnitude fainter still in two pointings of HSC (a total of 3.5 deg2). Here we describe the instrument, the science goals of the survey, and the survey strategy and data processing. This paper serves as an introduction to a special issue of the Publications of the Astronomical Society of Japan, which includes a large number of technical and scientific papers describing results from the early phases of this survey

    In the GH77-1 cruise, manganese nodules were obtained from 31 stations among 37 total ones. Here are reported the preliminary results of the observation mainly done on-board. Special attention was paid to confirming the applicability of the nodule type classification tentatively established in the previous GH76-1 cruise and to delineating the pattern of the nodule distribution and clarifying its relation to the geological factors, such as topography, surface sediment types, and substrate stratigraphy. In addition, a short description of the obtained rock samples from a few stations is included in this chapter

    Nodule samples obtained were described and studied on board for 1) observation of occurrence and morphology in and outside samplers, size classification, measurement of weight and calculation of population density (kg/m2); 2) photographing whole nodules on the plate marked with the frames of unit areas of both 0cean-70 (0.50 m2) and freefall grab (0.13 m2), and that of typical samples on the plate with a 5 cm grid scale: 3) observation of internal structures of the nodules on cut section; and 4) determination of mineral composition by X-ray diffractometer. The relation between nodule types and geological environment or chemical composition was examined by referring to other data of related studies, such as sedimentology. acoustic survey, and chemical analysis
