Research Abstract

Ninety monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) were obtained after immunization of mouse neoplastic epithelial cells of human salivary gland origin (HSG). Twenty five MoAbs were applicable to immunohistochemistry. Based on the immunoreactivity with normal salivary gland tissue (parotid gland and submandibular gland), three reaction types were recognized, i.e., type 1: reactive with whole epithelial elements. type 2: reactive with the terminal epithelal elements (acinus and intercalated duct) and type 3: reactive with the nonterminal epithelial elements (striated duct and excretory duct). Seven MoAbs showed type 1 reactivity, four type 1 or 2, eleven type 2, and three type 3. None of the MoAbs reacted with the mucous acinar cells in submandibular gland. Though the parenchymal cells of the duct-like component in pleomorphic adenoma was positive for all types of MoAbs, those of sheath-like component around duct and solid cellular component were never reactive with type 3 MoAbs. Both myxoid and chondroid components were almost negative for all types of Mo Abs. Warthin's tumor was negative for type 2 MoAbs and adenoid cystic carcinoma was negative for type 3 MoAbs. The epidermoid cells in mucoepidermoid tumor were positive for both type 1 and type 2 MoAbs, whereas, the mucus-secreting cells were positive for type 3 MoAbs. These results show that the anti-HSG MoAbs are useful tools for the analysis of histogenesis of salivary glind tumor. Moreover, these MoAbs are also usable for classification of salivary gland tumors. Analyses of antigens recognized by MoAbs were carried out. Nine MoAbs recognized the secretory products of HSG and ten recognized the nonsecretory ones. Western blotting revealed that all MoAbs recognized the antigens with molecular weight of 35.4 Kd and 30.6 Kd under reduced state.
