Histology and histochemistry of primary signet-ring cell carcinoma of the stomach. A: Lower power view. The signet-ring features such as abundant intracytoplasmic mucins, ample and clear cytoplasm, and eccentrically located nuclei compressed by intracytoplasmic mucins are apparent. The signet-ring cell carcinoma is medullary and the stroma is scant in amount. HE: x100. High power view. The signet-ring features such as abundant intracytoplasmic mucins, ample and clear cytoplasm, and eccentrically located nuclei compressed by intracytoplasmic mucins are apparent. HE: x400. C: Combined d-PAS and AB stains revealed abundant intracytoplasmic mucins composed of neutral (Mazenta color) and acidic (blue color) mucins. Combined d-PAS/AB double staining: x200.
