Size dependent enzyme activities of multinucleated (osteoclastic) giant cells in bone tumors.
In osteoclastic giant cells of six different tumors of bones and joints (fibrous dysplasia, proliferating giant cell tumor, malignant giant cell tumor, osteosarcoma after chemotherapy, malignant synovioma and Ewing's sarcoma) activities of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase, NADH-tetrazolium-oxidoreductase and, in three of them, of non-specific esterase are determined by enzyme histochemical methods. Quantitative microphotometry makes it possible to determine relative enzyme activities in the cut sections of giant cells of different sizes. Giant cells of the various tumors reveal similar trends: With an increase in cell size, mean extinctions of NADH-tetrazolium-oxidoreductase and non-specific esterase decrease. Mean extinctions of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase increase in cells of medium size, whereas the large cells reveal in part low activities. An additional ultrastructural examination of the giant cells in the proliferating giant cell tumor as well as in the osteosarcoma shows morphological signs of degeneration in the large cells. Electron probe microanalysis of the proliferating giant cell tumor exhibits evidence of phagocytosis of Ca and/or Fe containing particles. The similar size dependent reaction pattern of enzymes in osteoclastic giant cells of different tumors favors the concept of a common histogenesis, i.e. a host reaction.
