Epitope retrieval, sensitive detection methods, and the availability of new monoclonal antibodies have all contributed to one's ability to perform detailed immunophenotyping that previously could only be done in cryostat sections or by flow cyto...
متن کاملLMP1 Immunohistochemistry in Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma of Sudanese Cases
Back ground: Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL) with its different subtypes is strongly related to Epstein Bar virus (EBV) infection mainly Burkitt’s lymphoma in Africa. Studies proved the role of EBV in tumor-genesis and linked it to prognosis and therapy of patients. Objectives: To determine the frequency of EBV in non-Hodgkin lymphomas using EBV latent membrane protein 1 (EBVLMP1) immunohistochemi...
متن کاملRole of Immunohistochemistry in the Diagnosis of Solitary Fibrous Tumor, a Review
Background: Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a mesenchymal tumor which is most commonly seen in the pleura; however it can be seen in other organs such as the meninge, gastrointestinal tract, soft tissue, bone, and skin. SFT should be differentiated from other mesenchymal tumors in these organs. Immunohistochemistry plays a pivotal role for the histopathologic diagnosis...
