    Pulmonary granulomatosis and angiitis (1991)

    Notes: A wide variety of disease processes, each requiring different therapy, may give rise to granulomatous and vasculitic pulmonary lesions, making accurate aetiological diagnosis essential. For this, adequate sampling of tissue is necessary, and this usually requires open lung biopsy in order to obtain sufficient material for microbiological, immunocytochemical and ultrastructural as well as histopathological investigation. Many cases diagnosed as lymphonatoid granulomatosis are examples of extranodal lymphoma. It is suggested that this is an inappropriate name and that such cases should be referred to as pulmonary lymphomas and the phenotype specified.

    Pulmonary fibrosis (1990)

    Notes: Diffuse interstitial pulmonary fibrosis is the end result of alveolar damage which may occur as a sudden acute incident or as a slowly developing process. Potentiating factors include release of enzymes and generation of oxygen radicals by granulocytes. Evidence from studies on broncho-alveolar lavage fluid and from immunocyto-chemistry indicate that an autoimmune process has an important but, as yet, not clearly defined role in initiating the disease. The fibrosis is probably due to proliferation of small clones of fast growing fibroblasts of a specific phenotype. Bronchiolitis obliterans, organizing pneumonia, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, usual interstitial pneumonia and desquamative interstitial pneumonia represent different aspects of the same condition. Their varied morphological appearances probably reflect the fact that tissue has been taken at different stages in the development of the disease.

    Immunosuppression and thrombosis in renal transplantation: an immunohistological study (1990)

    Notes: Renal biopsies were taken from 42 patients at seven and 21 days after renal transplantation. Paraffin sections from these specimens were examined immunocytochemically for the presence of platelet microthrombi in glomerular capillaries using the monoclonal antibody Y2/51. Patients were treated by one of four different immunosuppressive regimes, three of which included cyclosporin A, either alone or in combination with steroids and azathioprine. Microthrombi were detected in approximately 30% of biopsies and were much commoner in patients receiving multi-drug therapy. We conclude that, contrary to previous suggestions, glomerular capillary thromboses are not frequent in patients on cyclosporin A alone. They are found mainly in patients on multiple drug therapy, particularly when steroids are included. The detection of microthrombi is unlikely to be of assistance in the earlier detection of cyclosporin toxicity.

    Human lung tumours: does intermediate filament co-expression correlate with other morphological or immunocytochemical features? (1987)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Histopathology 11 (1987), S. 0

    Notes: Co-expression of intermediate filaments is being increasingly reported for many human tumours including carcinoma of the lung. However, it is unclear whether such findings are unusual or restricted to a group of highly atypical tumours. In the present study the pattern of co-expression of intermediate filaments in 94 human lung tumours has been correlated with light and electron microscopical features which are thought to be atypical for particular tumour types. These same aberrant patterns of intermediate filament co-expression have also been compared with the proliferative rate of these tumours as determined by labelling with the monoclonal antibody Ki67. The results of this study have shown that the aberrant expression of intermediate filaments is not a feature unique to a group of highly unusual tumours but is found throughout the spectrum of lung cancer. The implications of these findings for the use of anti-intermediate filament antibodies in pulmonary pathology are discussed with suggestions for future directions which might be taken in this field.

    Cellular heterogeneity in lung cancer (1986)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Histopathology 10 (1986), S. 0

    Notes: Sixty-six lung carcinomas have been examined by light and electron microscopy, as well as by immunocytochemical techniques using a panel of monoclonal antibodies. There was considerable heterogeneity with regard to cell type and in only 18 cases was it possible to classify the tumour as a solely small cell, squamous or adenocarcinoma. In the remaining cases there was evidence of two or three cell types. These findings support the thesis that all lung cancers are derived from a pluripotential basal or reserve cell in the bronchial mucosa which may proliferate along one or more lines of differentiation. This view of the histogenesis of lung cancer would account for the heterogeneous appearance of many tumours and the difficulty experienced in placing them in one of the standard classifications.

    Human lung tumours: a correlation of antigenic profile with histological type (1985)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Histopathology 9 (1985), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1365-2559

    Notes: Fifty-four human lung tumours have been immunostained with a large panel of monoclonal antibodies including reagents against cytokeratins, prekeratins, epithelial membrane antigen (EMA), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and neural antigens. These results have been compared with the histological types of tumour using the current WHO classification scheme. The most striking finding of this study was the considerable overlap of antigenic profile between different histological types of tumour. This suggests that there may be a greater underlying similarity between different histological categories of lung tumour than has hitherto been assumed. Secondly it was evident that immunostaining highlighted areas of different morphology within many tumours emphasizing the heterogeneous differentiation patterns seen in lung cancers. The present study supports the viewpoint that lung tumours arise from a common stem cell and that these neoplasms represent a single tumour with a tendency to differentiate along one or more pathways.

    Ki-67 immunostaining and survival in operable lung cancer (1991)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Histopathology 19 (1991), S. 0 
    Details

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: One hundred and eighty-seven operable lung tumours were immunostained with the monoclonal antibody Ki-67 and divided into groups of high, moderate or low proliferation. Patients have been followed clinically for up to 7 years to ascertain whether this immunocytochemical measurement reflected tumour behaviour in terms of survival. The majority of the tumours were squamous cell carcinomas (104 cases) and adenocarcinomas (60 cases). These were divided into three groups of low, intermediate and high growth fraction, in which survival was better for tumours of lower proliferative rate up to approximately 2 years after operation. By 5 years these differences had largely disappeared and all tumours of a particular type showed a similar survival curve. Small cell carcinomas (13 cases) had high Ki-67 labelling indices, with more than 60% of patients dead in the first year, whereas carcinoid tumours (10 cases) had low labelling rates and all but one are still alive. We conclude that measurement of lung tumour growth rate with the monoclonal antibody Ki-67 shows promise as a possible indicator of short-term survival and perhaps as a means of choosing a group of patients with adenocarcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas for post-operative chemotherapy.
