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

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 and Reed-Sternberg cells. Some of the implications are discussed.
