In general, the majority of cell types in the adult animal contain only a single class of intermediate filaments. A few, however, contain vimentin as well as another intermediate filament protein. 2, record 1, English, - vimentin

Vimentin-containing fibers are prominent in many cultured fibroblast cells. The filaments are extremely insoluble-a property suggesting that they play a structural role. 2, record 1, English, - vimentin

On the basis of lectin histochemistry and immunohistology, the tumor proved to be a mesenchymal neoplasm without any obvious capacity of the proliferating cells to differentiate into any well-known organoid elements normally found in mature renal parenchyma. However, the proliferating neoplastic cells were found to have a strong vimentin positivity with desmin expressin. 1, record 2, English, - organoid

Très récemment, plusieurs équipes de la côte Est des États-Unis ont décrit une technique remarquable qui pourrait faciliter considérablement la thérapie génique somatique, notamment celle utilisant les hépatocytes : il s'agit de la création d'organoïdes. 1, record 2, French, - organo%C3%AFde
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 2 CONT
La formation d'organoïdes est simple. Un support, le PTFE ou le Gore-tex, est utilisé sous la forme de fins filaments non-tissés ("cheveux d'ange") et incubé dans une solution de collagène, puis dans une solution de HBGF-1/FGF acide. Ce dernier facteur est alors implanté dans la cavité péritonéale des rats. En quelques semaines l'organoïde se développera. 2, record 2, French, - organo%C3%AFde
