Gross cystic disease fluid protein-15 (GCDFP-15) is a 15-kd glycoprotein that is expressed by normal apocrine epithelia and in a majority of breast carcinomas. However, recent studies have demonstrated that this substance is also present in tumors of the salivary glands, sweat glands, and prostate gland. To determine whether the expression of CGDFP-15 might aid in the differential diagnosis of salivary gland lesions, the anti-GCDFP-15 monoclonal antibody D6 was applied to paraffin sections of 133 such neoplasms. Benign tumors (76% reactive) were more often labeled than malignant lesions (28% reactive) by this antibody; overall, 53 (41%) of 133 cases were positive for GCDFP-15. Notably, the tubuloglandular components in 17 (81%) of 21 pleomorphic adenomas were reactive, but no example of either adenoid cystic carcinoma or polymorphous low-grade adenocarcinoma were labeled. In contrast, 24% of adenocarcinomas stained with this antibody. The apparent expression of GCDFP-15 by a spectrum of salivary gland tumors supports their biologic relationship to lesions of the cutaneous apocrine glands and breast. Furthermore, the demonstration of this determinant may be of use in suggesting the salivary gland nature of poorly differentiated carcinomas of the head and neck, and it may facilitate the separation of pleomorphic adenoma from histologically similar malignant neoplasms in the salivary glands themselves. 相似文献

The HE4 (WFDC2) gene encodes a WAP-type four disulphide core domain-containing protein with a presumptive role in natural immunity. Multiple studies have consistently identified upregulation of HE4 gene expression in carcinomas of the ovary; however, the expression in normal and malignant adult tissues has not been examined in detail. Here, we examined the expression of the HE4 gene and protein in a large series of normal and malignant adult tissues by oligonucleotide microarray and tissue microarray, respectively. HE4 gene expression was highest in normal human trachea and salivary gland, and to a lesser extent, lung, prostate, pituitary gland, thyroid, and kidney. In a series of 175 human adult tumors, gene expression was highest in ovarian serous carcinomas. However, adenocarcinomas of the lung, and occasional breast, transitional cell and pancreatic carcinomas had moderate or high levels of HE4 expression. Using tissue microarrays and full tissue sections of normal and 448 neoplastic tissues, HE4 immunoreactivity was found in normal glandular epithelium of the female genital tract and breast, the epididymis and vas deferens, respiratory epithelium, distal renal tubules, colonic mucosa, and salivary glands, consistent with HE4 gene expression. In addition to consistent positivity in ovarian carcinoma, some pulmonary, endometrial, and breast adenocarcinomas, mesotheliomas, and less often, gastrointestinal, renal and transitional cell carcinomas were also positive. Knowledge of the expression patterns of HE4 in our survey is useful for application in histopathologic diagnosis, and should be taken into consideration in future studies that examine the role of HE4 as a serological tumor biomarker or as a target for gene-based therapy. 相似文献

Vitamin B12 R-binder, a specific binding protein for vitamin B12, was studied immunohistochemically in normal and 106 neoplastic salivary gland tissues with a monoclonal antibody against vitamin B12 R-binder (R-binder). In normal salivary glands, R-binder localization was restricted to the ductal systems and to mucous acinar cells; serous acinar cells, myoepithelial cells and stromal connective tissues were consistently negative. Among salivary gland tumors, R-binder was present in 87% of pleomorphic adenomas, 100% of monomorphic adenomas, and 40% of adenoid cystic carcinomas; positivity was observed only on luminal surfaces of small ductular elements, indicating that the components closely related to ductal differentiation were rather small in population. R-binder could be detected both in lacunar and non-lacunar cells within chondroid areas of pleomorphic adenomas, suggesting the possibility that chondroid regions arise from metaplastic changes in ductal epithelial cells. In mucoepidermoid tumors, mucous cells and focal squamous cells exhibited cytoplasmic staining. The staining pattern for R-binder in epithelial components of adenolymphomas showed close similarities to those found in normal large excretory ducts. Two acinic cell tumors and one case each of myoepithelioma and malignant myoepithelioma exhibited negative reactivity for R-binder, showing that these neoplasms are solely composed of tumor cells without the characteristics of ductular differentiation. The immunohistochemical examination of salivary gland tumors, employing a monoclonal anti-R-binder antibody, may have some implications for cellular heterogeneity and differentiation in various tumors. 相似文献

Differential distribution of alpha-subunit (S100-alpha) and beta-subunit (S100-beta) of S100 protein in nonnervous tissues was studied by employing the indirect peroxidase-labeled antibody method with monospecific antibodies to human S100-alpha or bovine S100-beta. It became clear that S100-alpha and S100-beta were more widespread than previously reported. In light of this study, together with the previous report describing quantitative differential distribution of S100-alpha and S100-beta (Kato K, Kimura S: Biochim Biophys Acta, 842:146, 1985), S100-alpha was localized at much higher levels in myocardial cells and slow-twitch muscle fibers, at high levels in renal tubules, chondrocytes, follicular cells of thyroid, exocrine cells of salivary, mammary, and eccrine sweat glands, and centroacinar and acinar cells of the pancreas. On the other hand, S100-beta was mainly localized in Schwann cells, chondrocytes, and adipocytes. There were several tissues showing a remarkable differential localization of S100-alpha and S100-beta; heart, skeletal muscle, exocrine tissues such as mammary gland, salivary gland, and pancreas, liver, kidney, testis, epididymidis, and lymphoreticular system. Based on the wide distribution and the characteristic differential localization, the possible biologic significance of S100 proteins and their application for diagnostic pathology were discussed. 相似文献

Normal salivary glands and 55 salivary gland tumors were examined by immunostaining (immunoperoxidase [IMP] and immunofluorescence [IMF]) to identify myoepithelial cells (MCs) and speculate on their role in the histogenesis of the tumors. The classic (C) MCs of normal salivary glands stained by IMP with antibodies to cytokeratin and S100 protein and stained by IMF with the same antibodies and with antibodies to vimentin and actin. Modified (M) MCs of pleomorphic adenomas stained positively by IMP and IMF with all of the preceding antibodies. In many mucoepidermoid carcinomas, adenoid cystic carcinomas, and basal cell adenomas, variable numbers of CMCs and MMCs stained positively by IMP with anti-cytokeratin and anti-S100 protein antibodies. No MCs were detected in adenolymphomas or acinic cell carcinomas. We believe that MCs play a major role in the histogenesis of pleomorphic adenomas and may also be important in many mucoepidermoid carcinomas, adenoid cystic carcinomas, and basal cell adenomas. 相似文献

Gross cystic disease fluid is a pathologic secretion from breast composed of several glycoproteins, including a unique 15,000-dalton monomer protein, GCDFP-15. By the immunoperoxidase technique, GCDFP-15 was localized in the apocrine metaplastic epithelium lining breast cysts and in apocrine glands in the axilla, vulva, eyelid, and ear canal. In normal breast tissue, a few individual epithelial cells within lobules and small ducts were focally positive for GCDFP-15. Fourteen of 30 breast carcinomas stained positively for GCDFP-15. Of 16 carcinomas with apocrine features, 12 stained positively. Benign and malignant lesions from other tissues, including lung, colon, ovary, endometrium, stomach, prostate, liver, esophagus, and kidney, revealed no immunoreactivity. The only cells of "non-apocrine" tissues that contained GCDFP-15 were serous cells of the submandibular salivary gland, submucosal glands of the bronchi, and accessory lacrimal glands. Phylogenetically, these tissues have biologic features in common with apocrine glands. This report is the first to characterize GCDFP-15 as a specific tissue marker of apocrine epithelium. 相似文献

An immunohistological study, using the avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex method, was carried out to define the reactivity profile of a murine monoclonal antibody, MOv2, which recognizes a novel glycoprotidic antigen associated with ovarian epithelial tumors. Among the primary ovarian tumors tested, MOv2 immunostained 93% of mucinous and 75% of serous cystadenomas, 100% of mucinous, 81% of serous and 73% of endometrioid carcinomas. Undifferentiated and clear cell tumors revealed more limited reactivity with the antibody, whereas ovarian sex cord-stromal and germinal tumors were immunonegative. Positive reactions were also documented in omental metastases from primary ovarian carcinomas. No immunoreactivity was detected in normal ovarian epithelium, whereas the cells lining Walthard's nests adjacent to the fallopian tubes and a variety of normal epithelia were consistently immunolabeled. These included the lining epithelia of the gastrointestinal tract, bronchi and endocervix, and the epithelium of salivary, biliary and pancreatic ducts and sweat glands. To a lesser extent, positive reactions were detected in other surface epithelia, such as squamous and transitional epithelia. Among tumors other than ovarian, MOv2 consistently reacted with adenocarcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas from different sites, most notably breast, lung and gastrointestinal tract, and with transitional cell carcinomas. In contrast, no staining was demonstrated in non-epithelial malignancies. The antigen defined by MOv2 may be operationally useful as a marker of epithelial lineage in tumor histopathology. Its pattern of immunohistochemical distribution indicates that an antigenic phenotype shared by normal surface epithelia and non-ovarian carcinomas is strongly associated with common epithelial neoplasms of the ovaries. 相似文献

Expression of alpha-methylacyl-CoA racemase (P504s) in various malignant neoplasms and normal tissues: astudy of 761 cases 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Alpha-methylacyl CoA racemase (AMACR), also known as P504S, plays an important role in peroxisomal beta-oxidation of branched-chain fatty acids. It has recently been shown that AMACR is highly expressed in prostate cancer and that it may be an important diagnostic marker for prostate carcinoma. However, little is known about expression of AMACR in normal tissues and other malignant tumors. In this study, we investigated expression of AMACR in 539 malignant tumors and 222 normal human tissues of various types by immunohistochemical analysis. mRNA levels of AMACR in normal organs and in selected tumors were assessed by real time PCR. In normal tissue, high expression of AMACR mRNA was identified in liver, kidney and salivary gland, while AMACR protein was detected in liver (hepatocytes), kidney (tubular epithelial cells), lung (only bronchial epithelial cells), and gallbladder (only mucosal epithelial cells). High expression of AMACR mRNA was found in prostate, liver, and kidney cancers but rarely in stomach and bladder cancers. A high percent of adenocarcinomas arising from these organs express AMACR, including 17 of 21 (81%) of hepatocellular carcinomas and 18 of 24 (75%) of renal cell carcinomas. In addition, carcinomas arising from tissues normally not expressing AMACR were also positive for the antigen, including 17 of 18 (94%) prostate carcinomas, 9 of 29 (31%) of urothelial carcinomas, and 4 of 15 (27%) of gastric adenocarcinomas. Two hundred and fifty cases of adenocarcinomas from lung, breast, pancreas, bile duct, adrenal gland, salivary gland, ovary, thyroid and endometrium were negative or rarely positive for AMACR. Neuroendocrine carcinomas rarely expressed AMACR. Melanomas, squamous cell carcinomas, basal cell carcinomas, soft tissue tumors (including epithelioid sarcomas and synovial sarcoma), thymomas, and germ cell tumors were negative for AMACR. Our data provide important baseline information for using AMACR in clinical practice and also are valuable in furthering understanding of the pathogenic role of AMACR in malignant neoplasms. 相似文献

We examined the immunohistochemical localization of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 in human salivary gland tumors. Thirty salivary gland adenomas (SGA), 40 salivary gland carcinomas (SGC) and 15 normal salivary glands (NSG) were studied. NSG showed restricted COX-2 staining only in the epithelial cells of salivary ducts. In contrast, COX-2 protein was detected in 27 cases of SGA (90%), except for three myoepitheliomas, and in all cases of SGC (100%) at various intensities and in various fashions. Thirteen SGA (43%) and 36 SGC (90%) cases showed strong COX-2 staining predominantly in tumor cells containing ductal components, as did serous and mucous acinic components of acinic cell carcinomas, mucoepidermoid carcinomas and mucinous carcinomas. These findings may suggest that COX-2 in salivary gland tumors is expressed in tumor cells derived from pluripotential ductal epithelium that can histologically develop into either serous or mucinous acinar cells. 相似文献

Expression of vitamin B12 R-binder, a specific binding protein for vitamin B12, was studied immunohistochemically in normal lung tissues and 107 lung tumors of various types. In normal tissues, vitamin B12 R-binder (R-binder) expression was restricted to the mucous cells of bronchial or bronchiolar epithelium and submucosal glands as well as to nonciliated bronchiolar (Clara) cells. Among lung carcinomas, 38% of squamous cell carcinomas, 42% of adenocarcinomas and 23% of large cell carcinomas showed positive staining for R-binder whereas small cell carcinomas did not. These findings offer the possibility that a majority of the histologic types of lung carcinoma have common histogenetical characteristics with mucous or Clara cells. Of the bronchial gland tumors, R-binder could be detected in a mucoepidermoid carcinoma but not in adenoid cystic carcinomas. Epithelial components in both pulmonary blastomas and hamartomas showed a reactivity for R-binder, suggesting that these tumors contained components composed of cells with bronchiolar cell differentiation. The immunohistochemical examination of lung tumors, using anti-R-binder antibody, may have some implications in the cell differentiation of lung tumors. 相似文献

S100 protein immunoreactivity in poorly differentiated carcinomas. Immunohistochemical comparison with malignant melanoma 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

This study compares the immunoprofiles of 25 cutaneous and mucosal melanomas with those of 400 poorly differentiated carcinomas, using a polyclonal antiserum to S100 and murine monoclonal antibodies to keratin (KER) and epithelial membrane antigen (EMA). All malignant melanomas expressed S100 but lacked reactivity for KER and EMA. Conversely, all of 49 carcinomas (12%) that displayed S100 also exhibited positivity for both epithelial markers. The latter group of tumors included 17 carcinomas of the breast, 16 eccrine sweat gland carcinomas, five high-grade salivary glandular adenocarcinomas, four lung cancers, three pancreatic ductal carcinomas, two serous ovarian carcinomas, one clear cell adenocarcinoma of the bladder, and one uterine cervical squamous carcinoma. None of 32 epithelial neoplasms that lacked both KER and EMA (19 testicular seminomas, four hepatocellular carcinomas, eight adrenocortical carcinomas, and one Merkel's cell carcinoma) contained S100 protein. These results suggest that S100 protein is relatively nonspecific as a single immunodeterminant in the diagnostic separation of melanoma and anaplastic carcinoma. The concomitant use of stains for EMA and KER, however, obviates this problem. Finally, since it is somewhat restricted in distribution, S100 reactivity in a known carcinoma may be of some use in predicting possible primary sources for a metastasis of unknown origin. 相似文献

Rabbits were immunized with 10 nm filaments of a mixture of cytokeratins which has been isolated from human heel callus material and reconstituted to filaments in vitro. The antisera to keratins (ASK) have been tested histologically at fixed and unfixed tissue samples by means of the indirect immunofluorescence and PAP technique. The ASK recognized specifically only the epithelial cells of skin, of the mucous membranes of mouth and digestive tract, of salivary glands, sweat gland and mammary gland, but did not react with hepatocytes or kidney cells. The following tumors, tested till now, reacted with the antikeratin antisera: epithelial and lymphoepithelial carcinomas of skin, mouth and digestive tract, carcinomas of salivary glands, mammary gland and thyroid gland, adamantinoma, basalioma of skin, and metastases from carcinomas. 相似文献

Actomyosin-containing cells in both non-neoplastic and neoplastic tissues of the salivary gland, lung, breast and some other organs were studied by immunofluorescent microscopy using antiactomyosin rabbit serum. In the breast, myoepithelial-like cells with positive immunofluorescence in the cytoplasm were observed not only in sclerosing adenosis and fibroadenoma but also in scirrhous and medullary-tubular duct carcinomas. No positive cells were observed in medullary carcinomas with lymphoid infiltration. The actomyosin positive cells were also seen at the outer layer of tubules of "mixed tumors" and of cell nests in adenoid cystic carcinoma and in myoepithelioma of the salivary gland, but not in the metaplastic squamous cells or in the cells of myxomatous and chondroid areas of "mixed tumor". In carcinoma of the lung, actomyosin-positive cells were observed in adenoid cystic carcinomas and adenocarcinoma of the bronchial gland type, but they were not seen in squamous cell carcinomas or papillary adenocarcinomas. It was concluded that the actomysoin-containing cells with structural appearances of myoepithelial cells in a variety of tumors were neoplastic myoepithelial cells. 相似文献

Vulvar apocrine adenocarcinoma: a case with nodal metastasis and intranodal mucinous differentiation
Alsaad KO Obaidat N Dube V Chapman W Ghazarian D 《Pathology, research and practice》2009,205(2):131-135
Primary vulvar adenocarcinomas are rare tumors, and their histogenesis is not fully understood. They are classified into extramammary Paget's disease, sweat gland carcinomas, and "breast-like" adenocarcinomas of the vulva. The latter resemble adenocarcinomas arising in the breast morphologically and immunophenotypically. Rare cases of adenocarcinoma with apocrine features have been reported, and whether these neoplasms originate from the "native apocrine" sweat glands or from "anogenital mammary-like" glands are still debatable. The presence of normal mammary-like glands in the vicinity of the tumor, the transitional malignant morphological features from normal mammary-like glands and the tumor, the breast-like histological features of the tumor, and the expression of estrogen and progesterone receptors generally suggest an origin from anogenital mammary-like glands. Absence of these features points toward native apocrine sweat glands as the source of these neoplasms. In this report, we present a patient who was initially diagnosed with Paget's disease of the right vulva, which was treated by hemi-vulvectomy, and who later presented with primary vulvar apocrine adenocarcinoma with metastasis to the inguinal lymph nodes and intranodal mucinous/colloidal differentiation: a feature, to the best of our knowledge, not reported before. We also reviewed the histogenesis of the vulvar adenocarcinomas, with emphasis on the morphological features that separate the tumors arising from the anogenital mammary-like glands in the vulva from those arising from the native vulvar sweat glands. 相似文献

Expression and distribution of insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor in human carcinomas 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
The insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF1-R) is a cellular receptor overexpressed in many tumor cell lines and in some human tumors that seems to play a critical role in transformation, tumorigenicity, and metastasis. To date, a comprehensive evaluation of tissue distribution of IGF1-R in human carcinomas from different anatomical sites has been lacking. Using stage-oriented human cancer tissue microarrays, we studied IGF1-R expression and distribution in a group of 152 human carcinomas from a variety of anatomical sites and from 63 normal tissues through immunohistochemistry. The tumors included carcinomas from breast (8), ovary (9), endometrium (7), esophagus (5), stomach (7), pancreas (7), liver (4), colon (10), kidney (14), bladder (17), prostate (11), head and neck (31), salivary glands (8), lung (13), and skin (1). Formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded tissues of each case were immuno-stained using the avidin-biotin peroxidase method and an anti-IGF1-R rabbit polyclonal antibody. High-membranous IGF1-R staining was observed in 7 of 8 (87.5%) breast carcinomas, in 9 of 9 (100%) ovarian carcinomas, in 7 of 7 (100%) endometrial carcinomas, in 5 of 7 (71.1%) gastric carcinomas, in 4 of 7 (57.1%) pancreatic carcinomas, in 9 of 10 (90%) colon adenocarcinomas, in 11 of 13 (84.6%) lung carcinomas, in 6 of 11 (54.5%) prostatic adenocarcinomas, and in 17 of 17 (100%) transitional cell carcinomas of the bladder. Only a minority of squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck and esophagus (34), salivary gland tumors (5), and renal cell carcinomas (14) were IGF1-R positive. This study demonstrates the overexpression of IGF1-R across a wide variety of human carcinomas of glandular or transitional cell origin. 相似文献

The specificity of monoclonal antibodies against gastric mucins (designated as HIK1083, PGM 36, and PGM 37) was studied immunohistochemically in normal, metaplastic, and neoplastic human tissues. These antibodies labeled class III mucin-producing cells identified by paradoxical concanavalin A staining in normal stomach, duodenum (Brunner gland), biliary tract, and main pancreatic duct; in mucinous metaplasia of pancreas and gallbladder; and in adenocarcinomas of stomach (90%), bile duct (80%), gallbladder (100%), pancreas (80%), lung (100% of goblet cell type adenocarcinomas), ovary (67% of mucinous carcinomas), and uterine cervix (100% of adenoma malignum tumors). Normal and neoplastic cells of esophagus, colon, salivary gland, kidney, endometrium, breast, prostate, and liver, as well as normal small intestine, lung, and uterine cervix, were all negative. The antibodies used should be valuable for the detection of class III mucin and class III mucin-producing cells in normal, metaplastic, and neoplastic tissues. 相似文献

Distribution of chromogranin and S100 protein in normal and abnormal adrenal medullary tissues 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The distribution of chromogranin and S100 protein was studied in 30 adrenal pheochromocytomas and 19 normal adrenal medullary tissues. Immunostaining in the tumors was compared with staining in sections of histologically normal medullae. Chromogranin showed diffuse cytoplasmic staining in all chromaffin cells. Chromogranin staining was consistently more intense in normal medullae, while less intense staining was present in most tumors from all four groups. S100 protein was present in the cytoplasm and nuclei of sustentacular cells surrounding chromaffin cells and in nerve branches. Many S100 protein-positive cells were present in normal medullae, in the two hyperplastic medullae, and in pheochromocytomas from patients with multiple endocrine neoplasia, type 2. Very few sustentacular cells were present in the other pheochromocytomas. These results indicate that S100 staining may be helpful in separating pheochromocytomas in patients with multiple endocrine neoplasia, type 2 disease from benign and malignant sporadic tumors. 相似文献
