Abstract: Previously, we investigated the higher incidence of hyperplastic lesions and thymomas and histopathological resemblance of cortex–medullary structures between thymomas and normal thymuses in Wistar Hannover (WH) rats. Thymomas had pale-staining cell foci (PA) similar to medulla but without lymphocytes. Here, we focused on the differences in cytokeratin (CK) expression in the thymic epithelia of the cortex and medulla and compared the structures of thymomas and normal thymuses. Thymomas, hyperplastic l… Show more
