IMMUNOHISTOCHEMICAL DEMONSTRATION OF IgG IN REED-STERNBERG AND OTHER CELLS IN HODGKIN'S DISEASE
نویسندگان
چکیده
Spleens and lymph nodes fixed lightly for optimal immunocytochemistry or processed routinely for surgical diagnosis disclosed strong selective immunostaining for IgG in numerous immunocytes in tumor-free areas. Areas involved by Hodgkin's disease revealed, in addition, strong immunostaining for IgG but not IgM in Reed-Sternberg cells and faint to strong staining in Hodgkin cells as well. Ultrastructurally the Reed-Sternberg and Hodgkin cells displayed abundant polyribosomes and sparse granular reticulum and appeared to form unexportable IgG on unbound ribosomes.

Down-regulation of Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen 1 in Reed-Sternberg cells of Hodgkin's disease.
AIMS To demonstrate Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) encoded nuclear antigen 1 (EBNA-1) gene expression in EBV associated disorders using a new monoclonal antibody (1H4-1) on routinely processed tissues. METHODS The pressure cooker antigen retrieval method was used for the immunohistochemical demonstration of EBNA-1 gene expression in formalin fixed, EBV positive tissues from Hodgkin's disease, infec...
متن کاملImmunochemical demonstration of J chain: a marker of B-cell malignancy.
Many B-cell lymphomas can be shown to contain cytoplasmic immunoglobulin which is characteristically monotypic with respect to light chains. In Hodgkin's disease, however, the Reed-Sternberg cells have been shown to contain both immunoglobulin light chains. This finding, which is also present in some other lymphomas, has been used as evidence both for and against a B-cell derivation of these ce...

OBJECTIVE To identify Hodgkin's and Reed Sternberg like cells by a single Immunomarker (Ki-1; CD-30) and to highlight diagnostic specificity of these cells in Hodgkin's disease, as these cells are frequently encountered in other lymphoproliferative disorders on H&E sections. METHODOLOGY Seventy-nine histologically diagnosed cases of lymph node biopsies (59 cases of Hodgkin's disease, 15 cases...
متن کاملGranulocyte and HLA-D region specific monoclonal antibodies in the diagnosis of Hodgkin's disease.
Tissue sections embedded in paraffin and fixed in formalin from 32 patients with Hodgkin's disease, representing the major histological subtypes, were studied using two granulocyte specific monoclonal antibodies (Leu-M1 and 3C4) and an HLA-D region specific monoclonal antibody (TAL-IB5). Reed-Sternberg cells were stained with one or other of the antigranulocyte antibodies in the nodular scleros...
متن کاملPrimary Refractory and Relapsed Classical Hodgkin Lymphoma - Significance of Differential CD15 Expression in Hodgkin-Reed-Sternberg Cells
We recognized a few possible complications of classical Hodgkin lymphoma therapy in a cohort of 209 patients: 8 developed a primary refractory disease (primary progression), 36 showed an early relapse and 21 showed a late relapse. Sialyl-CD15 expression in Hodgkin-Reed-Sternberg cells was significantly more positive in primary refractory Hodgkin lymphoma, which confirms our previously published...
