Monoclonal antibodies reactive with B-lymphocytes and histiocytes in paraffin sections

Cancer. 1985 Jul 1;56(1):95-104. doi: 10.1002/1097-0142(19850701)56:1<95::aid-cncr2820560116>3.0.co;2-k.

Abstract

Representative sections of normal lymph nodes, cases of reactive lymphadenopathy, and Hodgkin's disease were examined using two monoclonal antibodies reactive in paraffin sections using an immunoperoxidase technique. Antibody LN-1 recognizes B-lymphocytes in follicles; antibody LN-2 recognizes a broader spectrum of B-cells, and also shows positivity with some monocytes/histiocytes. The pattern of immunostaining with these antibodies is described with particular reference to Hodgkin The pattern of immunostaining with these antibodies is described with particular reference to Hodgkin and Reed-Sternberg cells. Some of the implications are discussed.
