Alpha-1-Antichymotrypsin: Interactions with Chymotrypsin-like Proteins
Summary
The interaction of human plasma alpha-1-antichymotrypsin with serine proteinases from various tissues has been investigated. The protein was found to form stable complexes with pancreatic chymotrypsin, leukocyte cathepsin G and mast cell chymotrypsin. No inhibition of pancreatic trypsin or leukocyte elastase could be demonstrated. With a mixture of both alpha-1-antichymotrypsin and alpha-1-proteinase inhibitors, it was found that the former preferentially inactivated leukocyte cathepsin G, whereas the latter showed a strong preference for pancreatic chymotrypsin.
However, leukocyte elastase was specifically inactivated by an alpha-1-proteinase inhibitor in a 1:1 mixture with chymotrypsin. All these results taken together suggest that one of the primary functions of alpha-1-antichymotrypsin is to inactivate leukocyte cathepsin G, whereas alpha-1-proteinase inhibitors inhibit the activity of other serine proteinases, particularly leukocyte elastase. controls.

Cytomorphology of solid-pseudopapillary neoplasms:
FNA generates highly extracellular smears, which are composed of a monotonous population of cuboidal cells arranged in loosely connective clusters as individual cells, and, most notably, as a single or multiple layers around vascular structures. in, which is often a myxoid or hyaline material (Fig. 13-7a ). Tumor cells have a delicate granular cytoplasm with indistinct cell boundaries. Nuclei are round to oval with finely dispersed chromatin, smooth or oval nuclear shape and indistinct nuclei (Fig. 13–7b). Mitotic shapes are usually imperceptible. The background may contain abundant blood, foam cells, globules of amorphous myxoid material, and necrotic debris.
