- Objectives: To assess immunohistochemical (IHC) stains differentially expressed between different types of lung cancer. Methods: We evaluated 16 different IHC stains in 209 prospectively included, surgically treated primary lung cancers, including 121 adenocarcinomas, 65 squamous cell carcinomas, 15 large-cell carcinomas, 5 adenosquamous carcinomas, 2 sarcomatoid carcinomas, and 1 small-cell carcinoma, using the tissue microarray technique. Results: Cytokeratin 5 (CK5) and P63 were both positive in 10% or more of the cells in 97% of the squamous cell carcinomas, with the former being positive (<10% of the cells) in only 2 non-squamous cell carcinomas. Thyroid transcription factor 1 (TTF1) and napsin A were positive in 10% or more of the cells in 88% and 87% of the adenocarcinomas, respectively, with 94% of the adenocarcinomas being positive in at least 1 marker. Fifteen percent of the adenocarcinomas were positive for estrogen receptor. Conclusions: CK5, TTF1, and napsin A are sensitive markers for squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma of the lung.

- Objectives: Immunohistochemistry is an important extension to clinical information and morphology, and prevails as an invaluable tool for establishing a correct cancer diagnosis in clinical diagnostic pathology. The applicability of immunohistochemistry is limited by the availability of validated cell- and cancer-type specific antibodies, rendering an unmet need to discover, test, and validate novel markers. The SATB2 protein is selectively expressed in glandular cells from the lower gastrointestinal tract and expression is retained in a large majority of primary and metastatic colorectal cancers. Methods: We analyzed the expression of SATB2 in all clinical cases (n = 840), in which immunohistochemistry for detection of CK20 was deemed necessary for a final diagnosis. Results: SATB2 showed a high sensitivity (93%) and specificity (77%) to determine a cancer of colorectal origin and in combination with CK7 and CK20, the specificity increased to 100%. Conclusions: We conclude that SATB2 provides a new and advantageous supplement for clinical differential diagnostics.

- In 231 diffuse large B-cell lymphomas, the expression of cyclin D1 and CD5 was evaluated. All cases were CD5-. Ten (4.3%) were positive for cyclin D1 and were subjected to fluorescence in situ hybridization at the CCND1 locus. One case showed the t(11;14). In another case, the telomeric probe signal for cyclin D1 was lost in most tumor cells, and in a small proportion of the cells, there were fluorescence signals indicative of the t(11;14). Two other cases displayed additional cyclin D1 signals in the absence of the t(11;14). All cases but 1 were positive for bcl-6 or MUM1, disfavoring the possibility of misdiagnosed blastoid variants of CD5- mantle cell lymphomas. Thus, contrary to the current view, there seems to exist a certain number of cyclin D1+ and CD5- diffuse large B-cell lymphomas, some of which have structural aberrations at the CCND1 locus, including the t(11;14).

- It has been reported that endothelium in malignant glioma stains with a commercial antibody raised against the receptor for epidermal growth factor (EGFr) on A431 cells (clone 29.1). In this report, this antibody was used to study the immunohistochemical expression of EGFr in benign and malignant ovarian, mid-gut carcinoid, and thyroid neoplasms using the avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex technique. Eighteen of the 37 ovarian neoplasms, 4 of the 10 thyroid neoplasms, and 14 of 28 mid-gut carcinoid tumors expressed strong and distinct endothelial staining, whereas staining results of the remaining tumors were negative. The endothelial nature of the staining was verified by staining serial sections with Ulex europaeus agglutinin-I. The staining was independent of that obtained with an antibody raised against a synthetic peptide consisting of residues 985 to 996 from the cytoplasmic domain of EGFr (clone F4). All positive staining occurred in patients determined to be of blood groups A or AB, whereas samples from patients with blood groups B or O were negative. Immunoabsorption of the antibody with centrifuged erythrocytes from a blood group A donor, but not from a blood group B donor, abolished the positive staining. The data indicate that positive staining of tumor endothelium with this antibody is due to cross-reactivity with blood group A antigen. The results obtained challenge the validity of previously performed immunohistochemical studies in which monoclonal antibodies raised against the EGFr of A431 cells have been used, and in which the epitope for the monoclonal antibody has not been determined.
