Immunohistochemical distribution of desmin and vimentüin in the skin of zavot cattle

Zavot ırkı sığır derilerinde standart İmmunohistokimyasal teknikler kullanılarak desmin ve Vimentinin dağılımı belirlendi. Deri örnekleri, vücudun farklı bölgelerinden ahndı.Vihnentin immunoreaktivitesi subepidermal bölgedeki bazı hücrelerde, yağ ve ter bezlerini çevreleyen miyoepitel hücrelerinde, fibroblastlarda, damarların düz kas ve endotel hücrelerinde ve bazı kıl folliküllerinde gözlemlendi. Desmin immunoreaktivitesi, muskulus arrektor pilinin düz kas hücrelerinde, ve bazı kıl folliküllerinin bulbus pilisinde yoğundu. Desmin ve vimentin immunoreaktivitesi açısından Zavot ırkı sığırların değişik deri bölgeleri arasında farklılık görülmedi.

Zavot ırkı sığır derilerinde desmin ve vimentinin immunohistokimyasal dağılımı

The distribution patterns of desmin and vimentin were determined in Zavot cattle skin using standard immunohistochemical techniques. Skin samples were collected from the different regions of the bodies. Vimentin-immunoreactivity was observed in the cells of subepidermal region, in the myoepithelial cells surrounding sebaceous and sweat glands, in the fibroblast, smooth muscle, endothelial cells of vessels and some hair follicles. Desmin-immunoreactivity was dense in the smooth muscle of arrectores pilorum muscles and bulbus pilorum of the some hair follicles. Desmin and vimentin immunoreactivities were not different among the various regions of Zavot cattle skin.
