This retrospective multi-centric immunohistochemical study included 57 DFSP cases, 15 dermatofibromas, 5 deep fibrous histiocytomas, 8 neurofibromas, 5 spindle cell lipomas, 8 dermal scars, 6 nodular fasciitis, 5 cutaneous leiomyomas and 5 solitary fibrous tumors. Among the 57 DFSP cases, 11 were recurrent lesions; 2 non-recurrent cases exhibited an additional " " overgrowth and 1 recurrent and 2 primary tumors contained a minority of " " components. Most DFSP (95% of cases) exhibited cytoplasmic staining for WT1; 11/11 residual/recurrent tumors showed diffuse and strong WT1 cytoplasmic immunoreactivity; apart from neurofibromas, WT1 expression was lacking in all the other cases studied. The cytoplasmic expression of WT1 may be exploitable as a complementary diagnostic immunomarker to CD34 in confirming the diagnosis of DFSP and to better evaluate the residual/recurrent tumor component.

The mitochondria could be a therapeutic target to treat pathologies whose origin lies in mitochondrial dysfunctions or whose progression is dependent on mitochondrial function. We aimed to study the subcellular distribu
