  • Title: Nuclear bodies in human prostate with special reference to appearance rate.
    Author: Furusato M, Kikuchi Y, Wakui S, Wada T, Matsumoto I, Joh K, Suzuki R, Yokoyama Y, Aizawa S, Ishikawa E.
    Journal: Cell Struct Funct; 1986 Jun; 11(2):165-74. PubMed ID: 2425988.
    Abstract:
    The Nuclear Body Appearance Rate in seventeen human prostatic cases was statistically analyzed according to three lesion areas--the hyperplastic nodule, non-nodule and atrophic--in the secretory epithelium and basal cells. It was meaningfully high in the secretory epithelium of the hyperplastic nodule, but not in the other two lesion areas. There was no meaningful result in basal cells. Though there is a wide variety of reported data on the human prostate, particular care must be taken in analysis at the electron microscopic level, keeping in mind that even in a single specimen this organ has a notable variety of tissue changes. The Nuclear Body Appearance Rate reflects cellular hyperactivity although it does not have a specific known function at present.
