CD34 positivity was restricted to hemangiosarcomas, GISTs and one case of undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma, whereas KIT positivity was detected only in GISTs. Lesser amounts of keratins positivity were observed in fibrosarcoma, myxosarcoma, undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma, and dedifferentiated liposarcoma. S100 positivity was identified in myxosarcoma, undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma, and dediffentiated liposarcoma and vimentin positivity was detected in all tumour types.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The strong and diffuse staining pattern of desmin and SMA can be very helpful in distinguishing leiomyosarcoma from its spindle cell mimics. A novel finding is that SMA positivity was identified in malignant endothelium. Immunolabelling for CD34 and KIT provides reliable markers for vascular neoplasms and GISTs. Vimentin does not allow to distinguish between different mesenchymal malignancies in guinea pigs. Occasional positivity for keratins and S100 points to potential pitfalls and emphasised the need for a panel of immunohistochemical stains in the investigation of mesenchymal tumours.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/vms3.70801","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,3]],"date-time":"2026-02-03T11:25:24Z","timestamp":1770117924000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Immunoreactivity for CD34, Desmin, Keratins, KIT, Alpha\u2010Smooth Muscle Actin, S100, and Vimentin in Malignant Mesenchymal Neoplasms in Guinea Pigs: A Series of 62 Cases From a Single Institution"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Ji\u0159\u00ed","family":"Lenz","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology Znojmo Hospital  Znojmo Czech Republic"},{"name":"Department of Anatomy, Histology and Embryology, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine University of Veterinary Sciences Brno  Brno Czech Republic"},{"name":"Cytohisto, s.r.o., Bri.
