Morules and morule-like features associated with carcinomas in various organs: report with immunohistochemical and molecular studies

Abstract

Morules were non-epithelial cell clusters showing neuronal differentiation. There were two types: endometrioid type, expressing NSEgamma, and blastoma type, expressing neuropeptides. In contrast, similar morule-like features were epithelial nodules. Although the number of cases was small, the presence of morules showed no clear prognostic correlations.
