Figure 5

CD34+ and αSMA+ stromal cells in tumours infiltrating adipose tissue. (AD): signet ring carcinoma with Krukenberg tumour and peritoneal dissemination. TCs/CD34+SCs are observed around neoplastic cells (A,B,D), which show PAS+ vacuoles (C) and express cytokeratin AE1/AE3 (D). (A,B): CD34 immunochemistry; haematoxylin counterstain. (C): PAS staining. (D): double immunochemistry labelling for CD34 (red) and cytokeratin AE1/AE3 (brown). (E): neoplastic glands (asterisk) of adenocarcinoma of colon infiltrating adipose tissue. αSMA cells (brown) are observed in the stroma. αSMA immunochemistry. Haematoxylin counterstain. Bar: (AD): 20 µm; (E): 100 µm.
