3) NG-2 expression by >10% of the neoplastic population was observed in 16.7% (3/18) of haemangiopericytomas, 52.9% (9/17) of LMSs, 0% (0/20) of HSs and 33.3% (1/3) of MFSs.
* Tumour endothelial marker-1 is expressed in canine Haemangiopericytomas.
- The aim of this study was to characterize immunohistochemically 18 cases of canine haemangiopericytoma (CHP) using two new candidate markers for pericytes, tumour endothelial marker (TEM)-1 and new glue (NG)-2, as well as the conventional mesenchymal cellular markers, vimentin, α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), desmin and von Willebrand factor (vWF). Because pericytes may have the same origin as endothelial or smooth muscle cells or the same differentiation potential as myofibroblasts, 17 cases of leiomyosarcoma (LMS), 20 cases of haemangiosarcoma (HS) and three cases of myofibroblastic sarcoma (MFS) were also examined. Expression of TEM-1 by >10% of the neoplastic population was observed in 94.4% (17/18) of haemangiopericytomas, 23.5% (4/17) of LMSs, 30.0% (6/20) of HSs and 66.7% (2/3) of MFSs. NG-2 expression by >10% of the neoplastic population was observed in 16.7% (3/18) of haemangiopericytomas, 52.9% (9/17) of LMSs, 0% (0/20) of HSs and 33.3% (1/3) of MFSs. Vimentin was expressed by all of tumours. In haemangiopericytoma, the incidence of positive immunoreactivity in >10% of the neoplastic population was 5.6% (1/18) for both α-SMA and desmin and 0% (0/18) for vWF. Considering the phenotypic features of cells expressing TEM-1, CHPs are thought to originate from immature vascular mural cells sharing their phenotype with myofibroblasts. NG-2 expression may be a phenotype of smooth muscle cells rather than pericytes in dogs.
