Cytokeratin 5 is an intermediate filament protein of 58 kD molecular weight within the cytokeratin family. It is a type II (basic) cytokeratin. Antibodies to this protein identify basal cells of squamous and glandular epithelia, myoepithelia, and mesothelium. Anti-cytokeratin 5 has been reported useful in the differential diagnosis of metastatic carcinoma in the pleura versus epithelioid mesothelioma. Epithelioid mesotheliomas are strongly positive in almost all cases, but a minority of pulmonary adenocarcinomas will show focal immunoreactivity. Almost all squamous cell carcinomas, half of transitional carcinomas, and many undifferentiated large cell carcinomas immunostain with anti-CK 5. Anti-CK 5, along with antip63, affords a high sensitivity and specificity for squamous differentiation. Myoepithelial cells of the breast, glandular epithelia, and basal cells of the prostate are labeled with anti-CK. This antibody, along with anti-CK 14, has found application in identifying basal-like breast carcinoma.

Anti-CK 5/6 positivity is seen in nearly 100% of malignant mesotheliomas and in nearly 0% of lung adenocarcinomas. Anti-CK 5/6 positivity can be seen in undifferentiated large cell carcinoma as well as squamous carcinoma, and has been useful in recognizing spindle cell squamous cell carcinoma of the skin. Less than 10% of carcinomas of the breast, colon, and prostate stain positively for this marker. Anti-CK 5/6 has also been used successfully as a myoepithelial cell marker in the prostate and breast to determine malignancy.

Anti-cytokeratin 7 reacts with proteins that are found in most ductal, glandular, transitional, and biliary duct epithelial cells. Cytokeratin 7 (CK7) labeling can help distinguish between lung,breast carcinomas, and urothelial carcinomas that typically stain positive, and colon and prostate carcinomas that typically lack CK7 expression.CK 7 is a common marker of primary lung adenocarcinomas (almost all cases) with a lower specificity since it is also observed in other primary lung carcinomas and non-pulmonary carcinomas.1 Anti-cytokeratin 7 has also been useful in the differential diagnosis of ovarian neoplasms.This antibody does not recognize intermediate filament proteins.

Cytokeratin 8, a member of the Type II family of cytokeratins, is typically expressed in simple epithelium. The dimerization of cytokeratin 8 with cytokeratin 18 (labeled by 35betaH11) in the cytoplasm of simple epithelial cells allows for the formation of an intermediate filament cytoskeletal framework. This structure plays a role in the maintenance of cellular structural integrity and also functions in promoting signal transduction and cellular differentiation processes. Additionally, the presence of cytokeratin 8 has been detected in neoplastic epithelia, including glandular epithelium that can be found in prostate carcinoma. Positive immunoreactivity with anti-cytokeratin 8 is a useful indicator for the identification of normal and neoplastic epithelial tissues.

Cytokeratins 8 &18 (CK 8 & 18) are expressed in most simple epithelia (e.g. thyroid, breast, gastrointestinal tract, and respiratory tract). Anti-CK 8 & 18 have been reported to stain most adenocarcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas, but not some well-differentiated squamous cell carcinomas. Cytokeratin 8 & 18 have been reported to be useful markers for identifying Paget cells, colorectal carcinoma metastases,5 and gastric cancer micro metastases.

Cytokeratin 14 is a member of the Type I family of cytokeratins and is generally expressed in the basal cell layer of squamous epithelium. The cytokeratin 14 protein forms a heterotetramer with homodimers of cytokeratin 5 to contribute to the structural integrity of the intracellular cytoskeletal network. Anticytokeratin 14 has immunohistochemical utility as an aid in distinguishing squamous cell carcinomas from other tumors of epithelial origin.

The antibody is an antibody to high molecular weight cytokeratin that reacts with all squamous and ductal epithelium and stains carcinomas. This antibody recognizes cytokeratins 1,5,10, and 14 that are found in complex epithelia. Anti-Cytokeratin, 34betaE12 shows no reactivity with hepatocytes, pancreatic acinar cells, proximal renal tubules, or endometrial glands; there has been no reactivity with cells derived from simple epithelia. Mesenchymal tumors, lymphomas, melanomas, and neural tumors are unreactive with this antibody with some exceptions. Anti-Cytokeratin, 34betaE12 does label myoepithelial cells and has been shown to be useful in distinguishing prostatic adenocarcinoma from hyperplasia of the prostate. This antibody has also been useful in separating benign from malignant intraductal breast proliferations.

Anti-cytokeratin, high molecular weight (AE3) is capable of recognizing all basic keratins; therefore, it is a broadly reactive antibody staining most epithelia and their neoplasms. Members of the acidic and basic subfamilies are found together in pairs. Since each epithelium contains at least one acidic and one basic keratin, this antibody is used to observe the distribution of keratin-containing cells in normal epithelia and to identify neoplasms derived from such epithelium.

The antibody is the broad-spectrum keratin antibody cocktail. It is composed of mouse monoclonal antibody AE1 that recognizes the acidic type I keratins 10, 14, 15, 16, 19, and AE3 that reacts with the basic type II keratins 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8. Both clones were generated using epidermal keratin as immunogen. This antibody detects carcinomas of different organ origin, but is most frequently negative in hepatocellular carcinoma, chromophobe RCC, adrenol cortical carcinoma, some clear cell renal cell carcinomas, and renal oncocytoma. This antibody cocktail can cross-react with other intermediate filaments, such as glial fibrillary acidic protein, giving a false-positive staining in glial tumors.

Human cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a ?-herpesvirus (human herpesvirus 5) that causes widespread persistent infection. CMV continues to be an important opportunistic pathogen in immunocompromised patients. It is estimated that 30% of transplant recipients experience CMV disease. The range of organ involvement in post-transplant CMV disease is wide; hepatitis occurs in 40% of liver transplant recipients, and pneumonitis is more frequently seen in heart and heart-lung transplant patients. Other organs that are commonly affected are the gastrointestinal tract and the peripheral and central nervous systems. Histologic diagnosis of CMV in fixed tissues usually rests on identifying characteristic cytopathic effects including intranuclear inclusions, cytoplasmic inclusions, or both, especially in the endothelial cells. However, histologic examination lacks sensitivity, and in some cases atypical cytopathic features can be confused with reactive or degenerative changes.

Anti-desmin detects a protein that is expressed by cells of normal smooth, skeletal, and cardiac muscles. It has been suggested that desmin is primarily located at or near the periphery of Z lines in striated muscle fibrils. In smooth muscle, desmin interconnects cytoplasmic dense bodies with membrane bound dense plaques. Anti-desmin reacts with leiomyomas, leiomyosarcoma, rhabdomyomas, rhabdomyosarcoma, and perivascular cells of glomus tumors of the skin.This antibody is used to demonstrate the myogenic components/derivation of tumors. Desmin can also be present in myofibroblasts and be focally positive in desmoid fibromatosis.

E-cadherin is an adhesion protein that is expressed in cells of epithelial lineage. Anti-E-cadherin stains positively in glandular epithelium as well as adenocarcinomas of the lung, gastrointestinal tract and ovary. Another application involves the differentiation of ductal (which is membrane staining) vs. lobular cancer of the breast (which is cytoplasmic staining). It has also been shown to be positive in some thyroid carcinomas. A combination of E-cadherin and p120 catenin helps distinguish ductal carcinoma of the breast from lobular carcinoma.

The antibody s a useful marker for staining many carcinomas. It stains normal and neoplastic cells from various tissues, including mammary epithelium, sweat glands and colorectal carcinoma. Hepatocellular carcinoma, adrenal carcinoma and embryonal carcinomas are consistently EMA negative, so keratin positivity with negative EMA favors one of these tumors. EMA is frequently positive in meningioma, which can be useful when distinguishing it from other intracranial neoplasms such as schwannomas.

Epithelial cell adhesion molecule (Ep-CAM) is a transmembrane glycoprotein localized on the membrane of cells in most epithelial tissues. Immunoreactivity with the antibody to Ep-CAM has been seen in the majority of epithelial neoplasms, whereas most non-epithelial neoplasms do not show EpCAM expression. Ep-CAM is not expressed in mesothelial cells, hepatocytes, and lymphocytes. In conjunction with other markers, Ep-CAM can be used as an aid in determining neoplasms of epithelial origin, such as distinguishing between lung adenocarcinoma and mesothelioma.

Anti-Factor VIII-Related Antigen antibody reacts with endothelial cells and neoplastic blood cells. This antibody has helped to establish the endothelial nature of some lesions of disputed histogenesis, e.g. Kaposis sarcoma and cardiac myxoma. Not all endothelial cells synthesize (or store) this molecule; therefore, it should not be surprising that not all tumors of endothelial differentiation (benign or malignant) react with this antigen.

Fascin is a 55-kd actin bundling protein involved in cell migration. Fascin is up-regulated in many human carcinomas and numerous studies have correlated Fascin over-expression with increased metastatic potential. Fascin is highly sensitive for staining Reed-Sternberg cells making it an excellent marker for classic Hodgkins lymphoma. It is uniformly negative in lymphoid cells, plasma cells and myeloid cells. MON 3279 is positive in dendritic cells. This marker may be helpful in distinguishing between Hodgkins disease and non-Hodgkins lymphoma in difficult cases.

Galectin-3 is a 30-kD protein, a member of the beta-galactosidase-binding lectin family. Galectin-3 is associated with cell growth, adhesion, inflammation, mRNA processing, and apoptosis. Reportedly, Galectin-3 aberrant expression is related to malignant transformation and metastasis in carcinomas of the breast, colon and thyroid. Galectin-3 reactivity can be seen in the nucleus of neutrophils, vascular endothelium, carcinomas of the colon, breast, and thyroid. Galectin-3 may be useful in the differentiation of benign and malignant thyroid neoplasms. Galectin-3 may also be useful in the identification of certain liver disorders.
