Signet ring cells in breast carcinoma. An immunohistochemical and ultrastructural study.

Two cases of breast carcinoma composed predominantly of neoplastic cells with a signet ring appearance, one a case of invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) and the other a case of invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC), were examined electron microscopically and immunohistochemically. In signet ring cells in the ILC, mucin was demonstrated ultrastructurally in the intracytoplasmic lumina and also to a small degree in the cytoplasmic mucous granules, whereas in signet ring cells in the IDC, mucin was found only in the cytoplasmic mucous granules. Immunohistochemically, signet ring cells in the ILC were intensely positive for gross cystic disease fluid protein (GCDFP-15), but those in the IDC showed no immunoreaction for GCDFP-15. Thus ultrastructural features and GCDFP-15 immunoreactivity appear to be useful for distinguishing between the two different types of signet ring cells.

Expression of a rat ovary-independent mammary tumor-associated antigen defined by a monoclonal antibody, TAK-B1.

A monoclonal antibody, TAK-B1, was produced by immunization of BALB/c mice with mammary carcinoma induced in inbred Sprague-Dawley rats by treatment with 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene. TAK-B1 reacted with ovary-independent mammary carcinoma cells which had been transformed from ovary-dependent mammary carcinoma cells, but did not react with original mammary carcinoma cells or with cells from mammary glands exhibiting fibrocystic changes or normal mammary glands. However, TAK-B1 reacted not only with basal cells of the epidermis and epithelial cells of the bottom portion of crypts of the small intestine in adult rats, but also with basal cells of epidermis in skin and mesenchymal cells around developing hair follicles in fetuses. We therefore classify TAK-B1 as an ovary-independent rat mammary tumor-associated antigen. Immunoelectron microscopic examinations revealed that the antigen recognized by TAK-B1 was localized in the cell surface membrane of ovary-independent mammary carcinoma cells. Immunoprecipitation assay revealed that the antigen recognized by TAK-B1 was composed of M 220,000 protein and four other minor proteins.
