A comparison of antibodies to type VII and type IV collagen laminin and amnion as epidermal basement membrane markers 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
We have compared four monoclonal antibodies which label basement membrane components using an indirect immunoperoxidase method in frozen sections of skin biopsies. The antibodies LH 7.2 and GB3 showed expression limited to epidermal and adnexal basement membrane. Antibodies to laminin and type IV collagen also decorated dermal blood vessels and stromal components. The antibodies LH 7.2 and GB3 are more suitable for labelling epidermal basement membrane in the study of cutaneous lesions. 相似文献

We have examined epithelial basement membranes in tissue samples of seven normal breasts, 64 benign breast lesions and 63 malignant breast tumours by immunocytochemistry, using polyclonal antisera specific for type IV collagen. In normal breast tissue as well as in all benign tumours a continuous basement membrane was found at the epithelial stromal interface. In benign proliferative lesions, epitheliosis and papillomatosis could be more accurately distinguished with basement membrane staining. This approach also facilitated the differentiation between sclerosing adenosis and tubular carcinoma, since the tubules in sclerosing adenosis are surrounded by a continuous basement membrane whereas in tubular carcinoma basement membranes are almost entirely absent. In radial scar lesions the tubules were always surrounded by intact basement membranes, which underlines the fact that these are benign lesions. In breast carcinoma we could not detect a relationship between histological grade and the extent of basement membrane deposition. However, in different tumour types the basement membrane alterations varied. In infiltrating lobular carcinoma of the alveolar type, fragments of basement membrane were found, whereas in the classic and trabecular type, basement membranes were absent, suggesting that the alveolar type may be an intermediate phase in the progression of lobular carcinoma in situ to infiltrating lobular carcinoma. It is concluded that basement membrane immunocytochemistry, using antibodies to type IV collagen, is useful in the differentiation between benign and malignant breast lesions and in the classification of breast neoplasms. 相似文献

Basement membranes (BMs) in 201 soft tissue tumours were quantified using computerized image analysis of tissues immunostained for laminin and type IV collagen. The purpose of the study was to compare and quantify the extent of BM deposition in a large and varied group of benign and malignant tumours. Laminin and type IV collagen gave similar results. The difference between benign and malignant was statistically highly significant (P=0·0001), with greater deposition in benign tumours. BM deposition was homogeneous in benign tumours and heterogeneous in sarcomas and appeared to correlate with the degree of differentiation. Some poorly differentiated sarcomas showed cytoplasmic laminin staining but little or no extracellular BM. Immunohistochemical evaluation of BM has some advantages over electron microscopy; specialized equipment is not needed and since large samples can be studied with little sampling error, heterogeneity can be studied more readily. Subjective visual assessment gives a good overall indication of the extent of BM deposition and in many situations is likely to be a suitable alternative to image analysis. Because of staining heterogeneity, BM immunohistochemistry is unlikely to be of significant value in the diagnosis of specific types of sarcoma. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

We report a 60-year-old woman with intramucosal adenocarcinoma arising in the interposed colon, 40 years after the esophageal reconstruction for lye induced esophageal stricture. Although synchronous adenomas were also found in the native colon where the graft was taken, the number of adenomas was greater in the interposed colon and more dysplastic, even progressed to adenocarcinoma, than that of the native colon. The microsatellite instability-testing performed in the intramucosal carcinoma from interposed colon showed absence of microsatellite instability. Changing of location and functional demand of colonic segment, and the exposure to different intraluminal contents might have facilitated the adenoma- carcinoma transformation in the interposed colon. 相似文献

We reviewed the clinicopathological findings of eight cases of sessile serrated adenoma/polyps (SSA/Ps) with carcinoma, the largest diameter of which was 10 mm or less. All lesions were polyps located in the right side of the colon. Four lesions showed submucosal invasion and one lesion invaded the proper muscle layer. The depth of invasion, however, did not seem to be related to the carcinoma area size. Most carcinomas were well to moderately differentiated tubular adenocarcinomas focally showing some serrated appearances, and the predominant component of one carcinoma was a poorly differentiated medullary growth with inflammatory stroma. Rapid progression to invasive carcinoma from SSA/P was suggested for the carcinoma with proper muscle invasion whereas one submucosally invasive carcinoma was considered to progress over 7 years. Immunohistochemically, it was suggested that with or without hMLH1 protein loss, alterations of p53 and/or Wnt signaling pathway can be involved in the cancerization through SSA/Ps. The carcinomas irregularly imitated the mucin expression of the SSA/Ps (positive for MUC5AC and MUC2, and MUC6 expression in crypt bases), which was lost with progression of the carcinomas. Analyses of small SSA/P lesions with cancerization would facilitate the understanding of the mode of progression of SSA/Ps and their early detection. 相似文献

Collagen type IV in the lamina propria mucosae is one of the main components of the basement membrane of normal and transitional colon mucosa. The aim of the present study was to assess the use of anti-collagen type IV antibodies in the evaluation of biological activity of epithelial tumours of the colon. Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded specimens of polyps and carcinomas of the colon from 14 patients were analyzed. In transitional mucosa around epithelial tumours, only minor deformities of the evenly thick collagen type IV-containing basement membranes were found. This pattern was different in polyps where collagen type IV-positive basement membrane components extended between basolateral membranes of epithelial cells. Local changes of collagen type IV positivity in basement membranes of polyps were observed. Positivity of epithelial basement membranes disappeared in adenocarcinomas but there was an increased positivity in fibrillar components of stroma. Basement membranes of microvessels in lamina propria mucosae were also positive for collagen type IV. Similar observations were made in the stroma of polyps. Our results indicate that loss of collagen type IV in basement membranes of adenocarcinomas is related to loss of differentiation and the malignant potential of epithelial tumours of colon. 相似文献

L-CAM is a cell adhesion molecule which is expressed at the intercellular borders of most epithelial cells. L-CAM has been demonstrated to act as an invasion suppressor in carcinoma cell lines. In order to determine whether or not L-CAM expression might distinguish between invasive and non-invasive or metastatic and non-metastatic colon neoplasms, we studied L-CAM expression in normal colon mucosa, colon adenomas with various degrees of dysplasia, and colon carcinomas by immunohistochemistry, using the 6F9 monoclonal anti-L-CAM antibody. Normal mucosa showed evenly distributed distinct L-CAM immunoreactivity along intercellular borders. In adenomas and carcinomas, a similar though weaker expression was observed. This pattern showed a tendency to decrease in parallel with decreasing differentiation. However, no correlation was found with Dukes stage or area within the tumour. In some carcinomas, L-CAM was expressed at the luminal surface of the cells. In others, L-CAM expression was not found. These results suggest that L-CAM expression is disregulated or lost as an early event in the development of colon neoplasia and indicate that L-CAM expression does not correlate with invasive or metastatic potential. 相似文献

Distribution of basement membrane laminin and type IV collagen in human reactive lymph nodes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The location of two basement membrane components, laminin and the 7-S domain of type IV collagen, was studied in human lymph nodes using the peroxidase-antiperoxidase method. Basement membrane antigens were present on the walls of blood vessels and of marginal, trabecular and medullary sinuses. Thin, fragmented fibre-like staining was present also in parenchyma outside the germinal centres, in a pattern overlapping with reticular fibres as seen on conventional reticulin stains. This finding suggests that basement membrane components are a part of the reticular fibres of lymph nodes, or are closely associated with them. 相似文献

Type IV collagen, the major component of basement membrane (BM), is composed of six genetically distinct alpha(IV) chains. This study investigated for the first time the expression of these six alpha(IV) chains immunohistochemically, using alpha(IV) chain-specific monoclonal antibodies, in normal lung and in small (less than 2 cm in diameter) adenocarcinoma of the lung with a bronchioloalveolar growth pattern at the periphery. Small adenocarcinomas were histopathologically classified into three subtypes: bronchioloalveolar carcinoma (BAC) without collapse, BAC with collapse, and adenocarcinoma with bronchioloalveolar features. In normal lung, alveolar BM was composed of alpha1(IV)/alpha2(IV) chains and alpha3(IV)/alpha4(IV)/alpha5(IV) chains. In non-collapsed areas of BAC, alveolar BM was composed of linear alpha1(IV)/alpha2(IV) chains and discontinuous alpha3(IV)/alpha4(IV)/alpha5(IV) chains. In collapsed areas of BAC, alveolar BM was composed of linear and thick alpha1(IV)/alpha2(IV) chains only, because of the complete loss of alpha3(IV)/alpha4(IV)/alpha5(IV) chains. In invasive areas of adenocarcinoma with bronchioloalveolar features, alpha1(IV)/alpha2(IV) chains around the cancer cell nests were disrupted, in addition to the complete loss of alpha3(IV)/alpha4(IV)/alpha5(IV) chains. In conclusion, during the process of stromal invasion of lung adenocarcinoma, type IV collagen of alveolar BM is remodelled from the complete type, composed of alpha1(IV)/alpha2(IV)/alpha3(IV)/alpha4(IV)/alpha5(IV) chains, to the incomplete type, composed of only alpha1(IV)/alpha2(IV) chains, before the disruption of alpha1(IV)/alpha2(IV) chains. These findings may help to clarify the molecular mechanisms of cancer invasion. 相似文献

Colorectal cancer (CRC) accounts for about 8% of all new cancer cases diagnosed in the US. We used whole exome sequence data from triplet samples (colon carcinoma, colon adenoma, and normal tissue) from 18 individuals to assess gene mutation rates. Of the 2 204 genes that were mutated, APC, TTN, TP53, KRAS, OBSCN, SOX9, PCDH17, SIGLEC10, MYH6, and BRD9 were consistent with genes being an early driver of carcinogenesis, in that they were mutated in multiple adenomas and multiple carcinomas. Fifty‐two genes were mutated in ≥12.5% of microsatellite stable (MSS) carcinomas but not in any of the adenomas, in line with the profile of a late driver event involved in tumor progression. Thirty‐eight genes were sequenced in a larger independent set of 148 carcinoma/normal tissue pairs to obtain more precise mutation frequencies. Eight of the genes, APC, TP53, ATM, CSMD3, LRP1B, RYR2, BIRC6, and MUC17, contained mutations in >20% of the carcinomas. Interestingly, mutations in four genes in addition to APC that are associated with dysregulation of Wnt signaling, were all classified as early driver events. Most of the genes that are commonly associated with colon cancer, including APC, TP53, and KRAS, were all classified as being early driver genes being mutated in both adenomas and carcinomas. Classifying genes as potential early and late driver events points to candidate genes that may help dissect pathways involved in both tumor initiation and progression. 相似文献

The molecular and clinical characteristics of non-ampullary duodenal adenomas and intramucosal adenocarcinomas are not fully understood because they are rare. To clarify these characteristics, we performed genetic and epigenetic analysis of cancer-related genes in these lesions. One hundred and seven non-ampullary duodenal adenomas and intramucosal adenocarcinomas, including 100 small intestinal-type tumors (90 adenomas and 10 intramucosal adenocarcinomas) and 7 gastric-type tumors (2 pyloric gland adenomas and 5 intramucosal adenocarcinomas), were investigated. Using bisulfite pyrosequencing, we assessed the methylation status of CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) markers and MLH1. Then using next-generation sequencing, we performed targeted exome sequence analysis within 75 cancer-related genes in 102 lesions. There were significant differences in the clinicopathological and molecular variables between small intestinal- and gastric-type tumors, which suggests the presence of at least two separate carcinogenic pathways in non-ampullary duodenal adenocarcinomas. The prevalence of CIMP-positive lesions was higher in intramucosal adenocarcinomas than in adenomas. Thus, concurrent hypermethylation of multiple CpG islands is likely associated with development of non-ampullary duodenal intramucosal adenocarcinomas. Mutation analysis showed that APC was the most frequently mutated gene in these lesions (56/102; 55%), followed by KRAS (13/102; 13%), LRP1B (10/102; 10%), GNAS (8/102; 8%), ERBB3 (7/102; 7%), and RNF43 (6/102; 6%). Additionally, the high prevalence of diffuse or focal nuclear β -catenin accumulation (87/102; 85%) as well as mutations of WNT pathway components (60/102; 59%) indicates the importance of WNT signaling to the initiation of duodenal adenomas. The higher than previously reported frequency of APC gene mutations in small bowel adenocarcinomas as well as the difference in the APC mutation distributions between small intestinal-type adenomas and intramucosal adenocarcinomas may indicate that the adenoma–carcinoma sequence has only limited involvement in duodenal carcinogenesis. © 2020 The Authors.

Immunohistochemical detection of the receptor for urokinase plasminogen activator in human colon cancer 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
Paraffin-wax embedded specimens from 30 cases of colonic adenocarcinoma were investigated for immunoreactivity for the receptor of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPAR). In all cases there was a strong signal, predominantly at the invasive foci. The positive cells were mainly tumour-infiltrating macrophages but neutrophils and eosinophils were also strongly stained. The neoplastic cells were positive in 19 of the samples with staining of occasional or a moderate number of cells. In uninvolved, normal-appearing mucosa adjacent to the malignant infiltrates, immunostaining of both macrophages and neutrophils was seen, but the labelling was less intense than that seen in the malignant lesions. Weak to moderate staining of normal intestinal epithelium was also seen at the luminal surface. Comparison between immunoreactivity and in situ hybridization showed a similar distribution of protein and mRNA with two exceptions: first, neutrophils (strongly immunoreactive for uPAR) were negative or only weakly positive for uPAR mRNA; and second, many cancer cells at invasive foci showed prominent hybridization signals but no detectable uPAR immunoreactivity. Together with previous findings of urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) protein and mRNA being expressed in tumour-infiltrating fibroblast-Iike cells at the invasive foci, these results support the view that the uPA pathway of plasminogen activation is involved in tissue degradation in colon cancer. The results also extend and consolidate an emerging picture of non-neoplastic tumour stromal cells producing molecules involved in the generation and regulation of extracellular proteolysis in cancer. 相似文献

Gastric polyps can be truly neoplastic but most polypoid dysplastic lesions are manifestations of gastritis-associated dysplasia that happens to form a polypoid lesion rather than true adenomas arising in normal background mucosa as is typically observed in the colon. However, the term adenoma has been used over the years to describe polyps with intestinal and pyloric gland differentiation, and this terminology is entrenched in our lexicon. In this review, we briefly discuss the issue of terminology, gastritis, and the following polyp types: intestinal type adenoma, pyloric gland adenoma, foveolar adenoma, and oxyntic gland adenoma (also termed oxyntic gland neoplasm and adenocarcinoma of fundic gland type. 相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies raised to a number of microfilament-associated proteins were shown to recognize the appropriate proteins in extracts from human colon tissue. They were then used in an immunohistochemical study of normal colonic mucosa, adenomas, and adenocarcinomas. A strong reaction was seen in stromal cells within the tumours (both adenomas and adenocarcinomas) when frozen sections were stained with antibodies to filamin and caldesmon. In addition, a similar reaction was seen in the adenocarcinomas when stained with antibodies to talin and gelsolin. We believe that immunohistochemical staining with these antibodies reveals a tumour-induced process in the surrounding cells, possibly related to a host response to tumours. 相似文献

AIMS: To investigate the histogenetic relationship between gastric epithelial neoplasms we studied differences in expression of mucin carbohydrate antigens and mucin core protein, in normal and metaplastic gastric mucosa, and in gastric adenomas and superficial adenocarcinomas. METHODS AND RESULTS: We generated four monoclonal antibodies, including HGM72/75 against human gastric mucin and HCM14/21 against human colonic mucin, and investigated immunoreactivities of these antibodies and MUC2 protein expression in normal and metaplastic gastric mucosa, adenomas (15 samples) and superficial adenocarcinomas (intestinal-type, 77; diffuse-type, 59 samples). HGM72 reacted with mucous neck cells of the fundic glands and with pyloric glandular cells whereas HGM75 stained foveolar cells and metaplastic goblet cells. Weak binding of HCM14/21 and strong staining with MUC2 were found in metaplastic goblet cells. Binding of HGM75, HCM14, MUC2, but not HGM72 was high in adenomas. An equivalent staining with HGM72 and HGM75 with low expression of MUC2 and HCM14 was shown in intestinal-type carcinomas while the diffuse-type demonstrated more strong reactivity with HGM75 than with HGM72, MUC2 and HCM14. Little binding of HCM21 was observed in any specimens. CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates that adenomas predominantly have a intestinal phenotype, but both types of adenocarcinomas retain some cells with a gastric phenotype during the early steps of neoplastic development. 相似文献

Loss of basement membrane components laminin and type IV collagen parallels the progression of oral epithelial neoplasia 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Aims : To determine the immunohistochemical localization of basement membrane components laminin and type IV collagen in premalignant and malignant lesions of the oral epithelium.
Formalin-fixed tissue sections of 12 epithelial hyperplasias with no dysplasia and 30 dysplasias, clinically diagnosed as leukoplakia and/or erythroplakia, as well as 50 invasive squamous cell carcinomas, were stained with mouse monoclonal antibodies to human laminin and type IV collagen. Statistical analysis showed that there was a linear trend for discontinuous distribution of laminin from epithelial hyperplasia to epithelial dysplasia and invasive squamous cell carcinoma ( P < 0.001). Laminin staining showed a linear trend for discontinuity with increasing grade of dysplasia ( P < 0.05) and was more frequently discontinuous in areas of deep tumour invasion than in central or superficial areas ( P < 0.05). Brush-shaped thickening and reduplication of the basement membrane were also identified.
Alterations in the distribution of laminin and type IV collagen in oral premalignant and malignant lesions indicate that the loss of continuity of the subepithelial basement membrane parallels the progression of the neoplastic transformation process in oral epithelium. 相似文献

Summary The NC1 domain of the collagen type IV molecule, the major component of glomerular basement membranes (GBM), consists of dimers and 24 kilodalton (K), 26 K and 28 K monomers in man, and contains the Goodpasture antigen. Serum obtained from patients with Goodpasture's syndrome has been reported not to stain GBM of most male and some female patients with hereditary nephritis (HN) by immunofluorescence (IF) microscopy. In the present study, GBM seen on the renal biopsies of 2 patients (one male and one female) with HN were examined by IF to ascertain whether NC1 monomers were detectable. Three reagents were used: a plasmapheresis fluid (PPF) obtained from a patient who was treated for anti-GBM nephritis (human anti-GBM PPF); a commercial rabbit antibody against human NC1; and a rabbit antibody raised by us against dog NC1, which cross-reacted with human NC1. All 3 reagents detected NC1 determinants in GBM of normal human kidney by IF and reacted with human NC1 by a plate-binding radioimmunoassay (RIA). The human anti-GBM PPF bound to 28 K and 26 K monomer components of NC1 by Western blotting, the rabbit anti-human NC1 antibody bound to 26 K and 24 K monomers, while the rabbit anti-dog NC1 antibody bound only to the 26 K monomer. By IF, the human anti-GBM PPF did not stain GBM of the male patient with HN, but produced segmental staining of GBM (i.e., some GBM stained, while others did not) of the female patient. In contrast, the rabbit anti-NC1 antibodies produced global staining by IF of GBM of both patients. The absence of staining (i.e., global or segmental) seen with the human anti-GBM PPF implied that the 26 K and 28 K monomers of NC1 were either absent from GBM, or were present but altered structurally, leading to a diminution in their immunological reactivity. However, the positive staining observed with the rabbit anti-NC1 antibodies implied that the 26 K monomer was actually present in GBM. Hence, we postulate that the 26 K monomer of NC1 in GBM was structurally altered, and that the 28 K monomer was either absent, or present but altered. These findings suggest that there is an abnormality of more than one monomer of NC1 in GBM of patients with HN. 相似文献
