An example of autophagic vacuoles that resist digestion and persist as membrane-bound residual bodies.

Explanation
Lipofuscin granules are an example of autophagic vacuoles that resist digestion and persist as membrane-bound residual bodies. Lipofuscin is a yellow-brown pigment that accumulates in cells as a result of the incomplete degradation of lipids and proteins. These granules are commonly found in aging cells and are considered to be a hallmark of cellular aging. They are resistant to degradation by lysosomal enzymes and can persist in the cell for long periods of time. Therefore, lipofuscin granules fit the description of autophagic vacuoles that resist digestion and persist as membrane-bound residual bodies.

Sample Question
A 55-year-old plantation worker was referred to the dermatology clinic by his primary physician. He presented with a non-healing ulcer of 3 months duration on his right forearm. First a small pimple-like lesion had appeared at the site, which enlarged and became nodular, suppurated, and broke down forming an ulcer. He had 2 courses of antibiotics without any response. He did not remember having had any skin injury or prick at the site of the ulcer. Previous medical history was not significant. On examination, the ulcer on his forearm was about 15 mm in diameter, indurated with raised erythematous borders. Subcutaneous nodules were palpable and extended in a linear and ascending distribution on the right arm in the direction of the axilla. The local draining lymphatics were cord-like and palpable. Radiologically there was no evidence of bone involvement. Histopathological examination of biopsy from the ulcer showed granulomatous infiitration with many histiocytes and giant cells. Staining for mycobacteria was negative. Direct microscopic examination of tissue using 10% potassium hydroxide did not show fungal elements. Cultures were put up for bacterial and fungal pathogens. Tissue stained by Gomori's methanamine silver stain showed a few small oval and cigar shaped fungal elements measuring 3-5 microns. What is likely to be a characteristic of this fungus?
