MSH2 is a mismatch repair gene which is deficient in a high proportion of patients with microsatellite instability (MSI-H). This finding is associated with the autosomal dominant condition known as Hereditary Non-Polyposis Colon Cancer (HNPCC). The anti-MSH2 antibody is useful in screening patients and families for this condition. Colon cancers that are microsatellite unstable have a better prognosis than their microsatellite stable counterparts.

Napsin is a pepsin-like aspartic proteinase in the A1 clan of the AA clade of proteinases. There are two closely related napsins, napsin A (NAPSA) and napsin B (NAPSB). Napsin A is involved in processing propeptide pulmonary surfactant protein B (proSP-B) in the lung.4 In normal tissue, Napsin A is expressed in type II pneumocytes of the lung and proximal tubules of the kidney. Napsin A is a useful marker for lung adenocarcinoma

T-cell leukemia/lymphoma protein 1 (TCL1, TCL1A, p14TCL1) is a 14 kDa product of the TCL1 gene that is involved in T-cell prolymphocytic leukemia (T-PLL). TCL1 protein is normally found in the nucleus and cytoplasm of lymphoid lineage cells during early embryogenesis. TCL1 is expressed in differentiated Bcells under both reactive and neoplastic conditions, antigen committed B-cells, and in germinal center B-cells. The Anti-TCL1 immunohistochemical reactivity is reportedly useful identifying B-cell lymphomas including follicular lymphoma and Burkitt lymphoma.

Anti-TdT antibody labels normal cortical thymocytes and primitive lymphocytes. Anti-TdT antibody detects an enzyme found in the nucleus of normal hematopoietic cells, normal cortical thymocytes and in the cytoplasm of megakaryocytes of the bone marrow. TdT expression is seen in over 90% of acute lymphoblastic lymphoma/ leukemia cases with the exception of pre-B-Cell ALL. TdT expression is not seen in normal mature T-or B-lymphocytes. Anti-TdT is positive for approximately one third of all cases of chronic myeloid leukemia, making it a good indicator of better response to chemotherapy.

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.

GCDFP-15 positivity is seen in breast carcinomas. On the other hand, colorectal carcinomas, lung carcinoma, mesotheliomas rarely stain with this antibody. Because of its specificity for breast carcinoma, this antibody is often helpful in distinguishing metastasis of unknown primary.

CD23 antigen is a 45-60 kDa membrane glycoprotein identified as a low affinity receptor for IgE production as well as a receptor for lymphocyte growth factor. CD23 is found in some mature B-cell lymphomas and in Reed-Sternberg cells in Hodgkin disease. Follicular dendritic cells and some activated B-cells within germinal centers express CD23 in high density and mantle zone B-cells are stained weakly. The majority of chronic lymphocytic leukemias/small lymphocytic lymphomas are CD23 positive, whereas mantle cell lymphomas are generally negative, so this marker is useful when applied with other markers to separate the small cell lymphomas. Precursor B and T lymphomas, myeloid neoplasms, and mature T-cell lymphomas are CD23 negative and other small cell lymphomas are occasionally positive. CD23 is also positive on activated mature B-cells expressing IgM or IgD, monocytes/ macrophages, follicular dendritic cells, T-cell subsets, eosinophils, Langerhans cells and small lymphocytic lymphoma/chronic lymphocytic leukemia (SLL/CLL).

Anti-CD4 is used in the immunophenotyping of lymphoproliferative disorders.1 The majority of peripheral T-cell lymphomas are derived from the T-helper/regulatory cell subset so that most mature T-cell neoplasms are CD4+ CD8-.2 As with other T-cell antigens, CD4 may be aberrantly expressed in neoplastic T-cells so that the evaluation of such tumors requires the application of a panel of markers in order to identify tumors with CD4 aberrant expression.1-3

CD21 (also known as complement receptor 2 (CR2), C3d receptor, or EBV receptor) is a 140 kDa membrane protein on B-lymphocytes to which the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) binds during infection of these cells. The antigen is absent on T-lymphocytes, monocytes, and granulocytes. MON 3027 is useful in the identification of follicular dendritic cell matrix found in normal lymph node and tonsillar tissue. This antibody also labels follicular dendritic cell sarcomas. Anti-CD21 is valuable in differentiating follicular lymphoma with marginal zone differentiation from marginal zone lymphoma with follicular involvement. It also plays a role in distinguishing among nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma, lymphocyte-rich classic Hodgkin lymphoma, and T-cell/histiocyte-rich B-cell lymphoma in combination with other B-cell and T-cell markers.6 Anti-CD21 is also useful in identifying abnormal follicular dendritic cell pattern in angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma and follicular T-cell lymphoma.

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.

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.

Mucins are high molecular weight glycoproteins which constitute the major component of the mucus layer that protects the gastric epithelium from chemical and mechanical injury. In humans, at least 14 mucin genes have been identified that code for the mucin proteins. Mucin genes are expressed in a regulated cell- and tissue-specific manner. The stomach provides a good example of such differential expression of mucin genes. MUC1 is detected in mucous cells of the surface epithelium and neck region of the gastric antrum, as well as in pyloric glands and oxyntic glands of the body region. The heterogeneous pattern of mucin expression, including the expression of the intestinal mucin MUC2, may provide new insights into the differentiation pathways of gastric carcinoma.

CD138, Syndecan 1, is expressed in the late stages of B-cell differentiation with progression towards plasma cells. It can be used to differentiate lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma from marginal zone lymphoma. ALK+ large B-cell lyphoma (LBCL) usually strongly expresses CD138 whereas lineageassociated markers such as anti-CD20 and anti-CD79a do not stain ALK+LBCL. Anti-CD138 is immunoreactive with HHV8-associated primary effusion lymphoma even though the lymphoma cells lack the expression of B-cell markers. Anti-CD138 is a good marker to identify and enumerate plasma cells, benign, reactive, or malignant, in bone marrow biopsy specimens.4,6 CD138 is also expressed in epithelial cells.
