Yellow-brown bodies were observed in the sinusoids of lymph node and histiocytes. The authors confirmed immunohistochemical reactivity of lysozyme, alpha-1-antichymotrypsin, S-100protein, alkaline phosphatase, and acid phosphatase in non-phagocytic and phagocytic histiocytes which contained yellow-brown bodies. Phagocytic histiocytes (histiocytes with yellow-brown bodies)were not reacted with lysozyme, alpha-1-antichymotrypsin, S-100 protein, alkaline phosphatase, and acid phosphatase. On the other hand, non-phagocytic histiocytes were reacted with lysozyme, alpha-1-antichymotrypsin, S-100 protein, alkaline phosphatase, and acid phosphatase.
