    Notes: Summary Using the monoclonal antibody Tü 300 we localized thromboxane synthase, a secondary enzyme of the arachidonic acid cascade, employing the alkaline phosphatase anti-alkaline phosphatase method and indirect double labelling immunofluorescence in frozen sections of human tissues. Aside from platelets, the source of the antigen, all cells of the mononuclear phagocytic system were positive, including epithelioid cells and associated giant cells, starry sky macrophages, dendritic cells of T-cell areas, Langerhans cells and Kupffer cells. In addition, some epithelial cells such as epithelia of tonsillar crypts, reticular epithelia of the thymic cortex and ductular epithelia in liver, pancreas, female breast and salivary glands showed occasional focal reactivity for thromboxane synthase. We suggest that the mAb Tü 300 is a key marker for the macrophage system and the thromboxane generating system in normal and pathological conditions. It may detect functional activities of as yet unknown significance in some specialized epithelial cells.

    Notes: Summary Report is given on a 68-year-old man who suffered primarily from progressive weight loss and repeated episodes of fever and arthralgia. Later, liver dysfunction and renal insufficiency developed. Liver and kidney biopsics disclosed granulomatous hepatitis and nephritis. Because of the morphologic and clinical findings, the diagnosis of Boeck's disease was made. Shortly before death, diarrhea developed. Autopsy revealed a massive systemic involvement in Whipple's disease proven by light and electron microscopy and immunofluorescence. Tuberculoid and epitheloid cell granulomas and isolated giant cells were found in addition to the biopsy findings in skeleton muscles, the small intestine, lymphnodes and bronchi. At autopsy, the kidney showed chronic interstitial nephritis. The literature of kidney involvement in Whipple's disease is reviewed. This is the first case with granulomatous interstitial nephritis and chronic renal insufficiency in an inadequately treated Whipple's disease.

    Notes: Summary The stereologioal model and the base-line data of normal human liver needle biopsy-specimens are presented. Four reference systems were introduced: 1 cm3 of liver tissue, 1 cm3 of hepatoeyte, 1 cm3 of hepatocytic cytoplasm and the volume of an average “mononuclear” hepatocyte. The sampling was done at three levels of magnification (1,000 ×, 5,000 × and 10,000 ×). A lobular differentiation was not considered. The baseline data show strikingly small variations (s.e. less than 10%) within the individual biopsy specimen and within the group of four biopsies. There is no principal difference between human beings presented here, rats, mice and dogs. Only the mean individual volume of human hepatocytes is clearly larger than in rodents. The problems and limitations of stereological work on liver biopsy specimens are discussed.

    Notes: Summary In glomerulonephritis accompanying the Schönlein-Henoch syndrome (SHS) a characteristic subepithelial basement membrane change is present in 85% of cases. The subepithelial change is a reaction to subepithelial deposits and consists of a garland or dome-like new formation of thin densa lamellae. This change is much more frequent in SHS than in IgA-nephritis or idiopathic glomerulonephritis or any other systemic disease. Furthermore, subepithelial deposits (50% of cases) are nearly as frequent as subendothelial deposits (65%) and more often present than formerly assumed.

    Notes: Abstract Overexpression of p53 anderbB-2 was studied by immunohistochemistry in formalin-fixed tissue samples of 179 patients with transitional cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder. p53 immunostaining was strongly correlated with tumour stage (P〈0.0001). This was driven by a marked difference in p53 expression between pTa (37% positive) and pT1 (71%) tumours, while there was no difference between pT1 and pT2-4 tumours. Similarly, a strong overall association between p53 expression and grade (P〈0.0001) was driven by a marked difference between grade 1 (28%) and grade 2 tumours (71%), and there was no significant difference between grade 2 and grade 3 tumours. Surprisingly, the frequency oferbB-2 overexpression was higher in pT1 tumours (74%) than in either pTa (49%;P=0.0265) or pT2-T4 (56%;P=0.0645) tumours. Both p53 anderbB-2 expression was also associated with metastasis. Metastases were found in 77% of patients with p53 positive primary tumours, but in only 50% of the patients with p53 negative primary tumours (P=0.022). Metastases were found in 66% of patients witherbB-2 positive primaries, but in only 37% of theerbB-2 negative primaries (P=0.020). Of 32 patients with positivity for both p53 anderbB-2, 84% developed metastases, as compared to 49% of patients with positivity for either one or neither positive (P=0.002). We conclude that both p53 anderbB-2 over-expression are associated with early invasion in bladder cancer. Furthermore, p53 anderbB-2 may be important predictors for metastasis.

    Notes: Abstract A panel of 14 antibodies (panepithelial antibody Lu-5, anti-keratin-18, anti-keratin-7, Ber-EP4, anti-Leu-M1, HEA-125, anti-carcinoembryonic antigen, anti-blood group-related antigens A, B, H, B72.3, antiplacental alkaline phosphatase, anti-vimentin and BMA-120), which have been evaluated for use in differentiating mesothelioma from lung adenocarcinoma, was applied to a group of 24 suspected mesotheliomas. Using the established qualitative, descriptive criteria derived from monovariate statistical analysis of the tumour control groups (definite mesotheliomas, adenocarcinomas), a definitive allocation was possible in only 25% of suspected cases. We therefore constructed two “expert systems”, based on multivariate discriminant analysis with either the ALLOC 80 program for ordinal data or a newly developed analysis program for binomial data. With these two systems diagnostic allocation of suspected mesotheliomas was improved to 75% and 79%. The use of binomial data (“positive” versus “negative”) in conjunction with the probability-based test system is of particular interest because the primary data are easy to record and the test results have a higher statistical probability.

    Notes: Summary A mouse monoclonal antibody, MAb b-12, has been described previously (Stähli et al. 1985) which reacts with a Mr 350 kD glycoprotein with mucin-like characteristics (Stähli et al. 1987) expressed in cytoplasm and on the surface of human breast carcinoma cell lines (MCF-7 and ZR-75-1). In the present report the immunohistochemical reactivity of this MAb with normal and malignant human tissues is analyzed. Pre-experiments showed that the epitope b-12 is resistant to formalin treatment allowing the use of tissue processed by standard paraffin embedding methods. 167 normal and 408 neoplastic tissues were tested by indirect immunofluorescence or the avidin-biotin complex method. MAb b-12 stained the apical cytoplasm of secretory epithelia and their secretions including the acinar and ductular epithelia of the breast. It reacted with all breast carcinomas independent of their histological type or stage, frequently with all but in some cases with a fraction of the tumour cells. Some other carcinomas, primarily those of adenomatous differentiation, were also reactive. In these, however, the fraction of positive tumour cells was usually lower. The b-12 epitope is thus a marker for normal and neoplastic epithelia with secretory functions, particularly for breast carcinomas of all histological types and stages, and perhaps a differentiation marker for abortive adenomatous differentiation in solid carcinomas of the gastro-intestinal, uro-genital or respiratory tract.

    Notes: Abstract Specimens of 27 histologically definite mesotheliomas and 34 proven adenocarcinomas were examined with a panel of 14 antibodies: pan-epithelial antibody Lu-5, anti-keratin-18, anti-keratin-7, Ber-EP4, anti-Leu-M1, HEA-125, anti-carcino-embryonic antigen (CEA), anti-blood group-related antigens (anti-BGR A, B, H), B 72.3, anti-placental alkaline phosphatase (PLAP), anti-vimentin and BMA-120 used to determine their value in the differentiation between pleural mesothelioma and lung adenocarcinoma. Lu-5, anti-cytokeratin-7 and -18, B 72.3 and PLAP reacted in a high percentage of cases with both mesothelioma and adenocarcinoma. Anti-CEA and anti-Leu-Ml did not react with any of the 27 mesotheliomas tested but showed a reaction in 75% (anti-CEA) and 66% (anti-Leu-M1) of the lung adenocarcinomas. Seventeen percent of the adenocarcinomas and 96% of the mesotheliomas showed a positive reaction with anti-vimentin. Ber-EP4 was demonstrated in all lung adenocarcinomas, but only in 2 mesotheliomas in a focal manner (7%). HEA-125 and anti-BGR A, B, H reacted with 83% (HEA-125) and 75% (anti-BGR A, B, H) of the lung adenocarcinomas. The statistical parameters, sensitivity and efficiency were estimated and a normogram for judging the diagnostic power of a single antibody for the differential diagnosis of mesothelioma versus adenocarcinoma was developed. According to this, Ber-EP4, HEA-125, anti-BGR A, B, H and anti-CEA were, in descending order, the most powerful discriminatory antibodies.
