    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 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.

    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 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 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 lu-5) was prepared using a lung cancer cell line as an antigen. The selected clone produces an IgG with a gamma-1 heavy chain and a kappa-light-chain. Immunohistochemical testing of mAB lu-5 on 117 normal tissue biopsies and 474 tumours revealed reactivity with an intracytoplasmic, formaldehyderesistant antigen present in most epithelial and mesothelial cells, but absent in mesenchymal cells. The antibody can therefore be used as a first order, pan-epithelial marker. It proved also useful for fast tumour diagnosis on frozen sections.

    Notes: Abstract The MAGE-1 gene encodes a protein encompassing a HLA-A1-restricted target epitope for cytolytic T lymphocytes. Monoclonal antibodies directed against the MAGE-1 protein were tested for usage in immunohistology of routine pathology material. Seven formalinfixed, paraffin-embedded malignant melanomas were studied by the Avidin-Biotin complex (ABC) method with or without different antigen retrieval methods. Native, frozen tissues from the same tumours were used to validate the results by immunohistochemistry on frozen sections, by PCR for mRNA and by protein demonstration in tissue extracts using western blotting. Of 4 monoclonal antibodies tested, mAB 34B and mAB 77B were highly efficient in detecting MAGE-1 protein in deparaffinised sections with the regular ABC method after microwave pretreatment. In a series of an additional 28 patients 75% expressed MAGE-1, 50% in a substantial proportion. Follow-up studies in 6 patients indicate that the expression pattern remains stable but may change substantially within a short range. Immunohistology is thus a rapid and well-established method that might be used to select and monitor HLA-A1 positive patients with malignant melanoma and other candidate tumours for MAGE-1-directed immuno-therapy.

    Notes: Abstract This paper describes the correlation of hepatitis C genotypes detected in liver tissue with histological grading (inflammatory activity) and staging (degree of fibrosis/cirrhosis). The viral genotype was analysed by type-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and correlated with histology and age of patients. In 69 patients with chronic hepatitis C (HCV) infection, genotypes 1a and 1b were detected in 13 (18.8%) and 31 (44.9%) liver biopsies, respectively. Genotypes 2a and 2b were each detected once (1.5%) and 12 (17.4%) tissue samples showed a mixed infection with two genotypes. In 11 (15.9%) biopsies, no genotype could be established. The liver specimens were grouped according to the presence or absence of genotype 1b: group A consisted of specimens infected with genotypes 1a, 2a, and 2b (n=16), Group B contained biopsies infected with genotype 1b (n=42), and group C were biopsies with no detectable genotype (n=11). Activity (grade) of chronic hepatitis was not different in these three groups. However, advanced fibrosis/cirrhosis was observed in 16 (38.1%) biopsies in group B (containing genotype 1b), compared with none in group A (P=0.01). The mean age of patients in group B was significantly higher than that in group A (P=0.038), and the mean age of patients with advanced fibrosis was higher than that of patients with low fibrosis scores within these two groups (P=0.004). Stepwise logistic regression revealed an independent association of age and genotype 1b (group B) with advanced fibrosis/cirrhosis. These data indicate that patients infected with genotype 1b have an higher risk of developing cirrhosis than do patients with other genotypes.
