    Notes: Summary Ependymal proliferation [“Ependymzotten”, G. Becker, Beitr Pathol Anat Allg Pathol 103:457–477 (1939)], found in choroid plexus of newborns, can be made easily visible by immunostaining with antiglial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) antibodies. The expression of both GFAP and cytokeratin is an unusual feature of these structures.

    Notes: Abstract  Epithelial mucins are present at the apical membranes of gastrointestinal epithelial cells or in their secretions. In this study, we examined the occurrence of peptide epitopes of the mucins MUC1 and MUC3 and of three mucin-associated glycotopes (TF, Tn, and s-Tn) in a series of colorectal tissue samples (normal colon, adenomas with different grades of dysplasia, carcinoma in situ, and invasive carcinomas). A new monoclonal antibody to a conformation-dependent peptide epitope of MUC1 was employed, which does not react with the fully glycosylated mucin as found in normal gastrointestinal mucosa. We found that adenomas acquired the ability to expose Tn, s-Tn, TF and MUC1 epitopes, and this correlated with increasing malignant potential. The secretory mucin, MUC3, revealed a different pattern: it was detectable in all sections, with maximum expression in adenomas and decrease in carcinomas. Most importantly, normal mucosa and benign lesions showed supranuclear and/or apical distribution of these antigens, but malignant lesions and lesions with a very high risk of malignancy revealed diffuse cytoplasmic and basolateral membrane localization. The immunohistological response to a combination of MUC1-related antibodies may assist in assessing the malignant potential and status of lesions of the colon.

    Notes: Summary Immunohistochemistry with monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies revealed the presence of cytokeratins in epithelial cells of Rathke's cysts in the pars intermedia of the human pituitary gland. With monoclonal antibodies specific for individual cytokeratins, the expression of CK 18, CK 8, CK 7, and CK 19 could be shown in these cells. Within the hypophysis, CK 19 and CK 7 were restricted to Rathke's cysts and a few epithelial cell clusters in the pars tuberalis, whereas other cytokeratins were also present in endocrine cells of the pars distalis. Furthermore, vimentin and, focally, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) were detected in the cystic epithelia. By double labelling, coexpression of cytokeratin and vimentin, GFAP and cytokeratin, and GFAP and vimentin could be demonstrated. Compiled data of all known cases of coexpression of cytokeratin and vimentin in normal cells reveal physiological correlations and suggest a functional significance of this rare type of coexpression of intermediate filament proteins.
