Smooth muscle hamartoma of the lungs in a Wistar Hannover rat
J Toxicol Pathol. 2023 Oct;36(4):193-198. doi: 10.1293/tox.2023-0056. Epub 2023 Jul 7.ABSTRACTHamartomas are tumor-like masses comprising disorganized normal tissue elements. To date, spontaneous hamartomas have been reported in several organs and tissues in rodents but not in the lungs. Here, we report the first case of a hamartoma in the lungs of a 108-week-old female Wistar Hannover rat. Grossly, a white spot, 7 mm in diameter, was observed on the costal surface of the left lung. Histopathologically, the nodular lesions adjacent to the bronchioles comprised mature smooth muscle cells. The lesion was not encapsulated and...

Identifying the dataset to define the optimal timing of histopathological examination for central nervous system toxicity in MPTP-induced Parkinson's disease monkey model
J Toxicol Pathol. 2023 Oct;36(4):199-204. doi: 10.1293/tox.2023-0010. Epub 2023 May 24.ABSTRACTDetermining the optimal timing for histopathological examination following exposure to a test article is crucial for assessing neurotoxicity. However, no study has focused on identifying an ideal dataset to define the optimal timing for histopathological examination of central nervous system (CNS) toxicity in monkeys. Therefore, this study aimed to define a predictive endpoint that would guide us in selecting the optimal timing for histopathological examination of CNS toxicity in monkeys. Four cynomolgus monkeys were administered...

Histopathology of fused triplet placenta in rat
J Toxicol Pathol. 2023 Oct;36(4):187-192. doi: 10.1293/tox.2023-0026. Epub 2023 Jun 5.ABSTRACTA fused triplet placenta was observed in a Wistar Hannover rat on gestation day 15. Each placenta (referred to as PL-A, PL-B, and PL-C) of this fused placenta was attached to one fetus each, but their fetal weights were lower than that of the fetus attached to the only normal placenta (referred to as PL-N) in this dam. Histopathologically, thinning of the trophoblastic septa and dilatation of the maternal sinusoid in the labyrinth zone were observed in PL-B and PL-C, but not in PL-A or PL-N. The points of placental fusion were at ...
