| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
1. Lipoma-like myxoid type liposarcoma and well-differentiated liposarcoma exhibited a similar histology, but different cytogenetic profiles. The former possessed specific t (12; 16) and FUS-DDIT3, whereas the latter was characterized by giant marker and supernumerary ring chromosomes.
2. The monoclonal antibody FU3 against undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma reacted strongly with sarcoma cells and perivascular mesenchymal cells. The present study demonstrated that FU3 antigen is identical to CD13.
3. The bone marrow cells expressing GFP were transplanted into mice under bone marrow suppression. After administration of 3-methylcholanthrene subcutaneously, immature mesenchymal cells appeared around small blood vessels, then high-grade sarcoma developed. The sarcoma cells expressed GFP in approximately 1/4 of the mice. There are two possibilities concerning the origin of the sarcoma: bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells, and resident mesenchymal cells of local soft tissues.
