A 10-year-old spayed female Japanese Shiba Inu had an intraperitoneal mass that was excised surgically. The central area of the mass was composed of osteoblast-like neoplastic cells, osteoid, macrophages, and numerous fibers. The neoplastic cells showed nuclear atypia and many mitotic figures. Therefore, the central area of the mass was diagnosed as an extraskeletal osteosarcoma. The peripheral area of the mass was granuloma tissue with numerous fibers. The neoplastic and granuloma area included two types of fibers, which were identified as rayon and polyester by their morphological and staining characteristics. These fibers were consistent with those of commercial surgical swab, suggesting that the fibers may have been derived from retained surgical swabs at the time of ovariohysterectomy. Therefore, this lesion was considered an extraskeletal osteosarcoma associated with a retained surgical swab.

A mass was found at the base of the dorsum linguae of a male 11-year-old Labrador retriever. The tumor comprised of ganglion cells and Schwannian cells with Verocay bodies. The ganglion cells were positive for neuron-specific enolase, S-100, nerve growth factor receptor, and beta III tubulin. The Schwannian cells were positive for neuron-specific enolase, S-100, nerve growth factor receptor, and glial fibrillary acidic protein. The lingual mass was diagnosed as a ganglioneuroma. To our knowledge, there has been no previous report of a lingual ganglioneuroma in a dog.

A 12-year-old female Himalayan cat underwent an ovariohysterectomy to remove an intra-abdominal mass. Histologic examination using immunohistochemical staining revealed that the mass was comprised of epithelial and mesenchymal components. Within the lesion, multinucleated giant cells (MGCs) were observed diffusely. MGCs were positive for vimentin and Iba-1 and negative for cytokeratin AE1/AE3 and CD204. In addition, MGCs were negative for Ki‐67, indicating nonneoplastic cells. Osteoclast-like MGC (OLMGC) phenotype with tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase positivity was also seen. These findings suggested that the uterine tumor was carcinosarcoma with OLMGCs. Uterine tumors in humans, such as leiomyosarcoma and carcinosarcoma, with OLMGC infiltration are well-known pathologic entities; however, they are rare in animals and to our knowledge, have not been previously reported in cats.

We evaluated the cytotoxic effect of isoleucine-zipper tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis inducing ligand (izTRAIL) against cell lines, B101592, Cha, and C090115, derived from canine mammary gland tumors. These cells were derived from three dogs diagnosed with mammary adenoma or carcinoma. All three cells were positive for vimentin, while B101592 and C090115 were positive for cytokeratin (CK) AE1/AE3 and CK CAM5.2. Treatment with izTRAIL decreased the viability of the three cell lines. The proportion of annexin V+/propidium iodide- cells increased in all three cell lines after treatment with izTRAIL. Additionally, cell cycle analysis revealed that izTRAIL treatment increased the number of cells in sub-G1 phase. Moreover, izTRAIL treatment activated caspase-8 and caspase-3 and enhanced the levels of cleaved poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase. The cytotoxic effect of izTRAIL was mitigated upon co-treatment with caspase-8 or caspase-3 inhibitor. These results indicated that izTRAIL induces apoptosis in cell lines derived from canine mammary tumor, which was also previously reported in canine hemangiosarcoma cell lines. This suggested that canine tumor cells have conserved TRAIL receptors. This study will provide the basis for further studies on TRAIL receptors and TRAIL-related molecules.

Peroxiredoxin (PRDX) is an antioxidant enzyme family with six isoforms (PRDX1-6). The main function of PRDXs is to decrease cellular oxidative stress by reducing reactive oxygen species, such as hydrogen peroxide, to H2O. Recently, it has been reported that PRDXs are overexpressed in various malignant tumors in humans, and are involved in the development, proliferation, and metastasis of tumors. However, studies on the expression of PRDXs in tumors of animals are limited. Therefore, in the present study, we immunohistochemically investigated the expression of PRDX1 and 2 in spontaneous canine hemangiosarcoma (HSA) and hemangioma (HA), as well as in selected normal tissue and granulation tissue, including newly formed blood vessels. Although there were some exceptions, immunolocalization of PRDX1 and 2 in normal canine tissues was similar to those in humans, rats, or mice. In granulation tissue, angiogenic endothelial cells were strongly positive for PRDX1 and 2, whereas quiescent endothelial cells in mature vessels were negative. Both PRDX1 and 2 were significantly highly expressed in HSA compared to HA. There were no significant differences in the expression of PRDX1 and 2 among the subtypes and primary sites of HSA. These results suggest that PRDX1 and 2 may be involved in the angiogenic phenotypes of endothelial cells in granulation tissue as well as in the behavior in the malignant endothelial tumors.

The right third eyelid of an adult female brown bear (Ursus arctos) was swollen and removed. Histopathology revealed a tumor exhibiting proliferation with mild infiltration, consisting of multi-stratified glandular structures of the innermost laminal neoplastic cells and the basaloid neoplastic cells, and with eosinophilic thick basal lamina material around the glandular structures. Both types of neoplastic cells exhibited moderate anisokaryosis, and mitotic figures were observed in the basaloid neoplastic cells. The laminal neoplastic cells were cytokeratin (CK) 8/18-positive. In contrast, the basaloid neoplastic cells were CK14- and p63-positive, but α-smooth muscle actin- and calponin-negative. The case described herein is the first report of basal cell adenocarcinoma in the gland of the third eyelid of a bear.
