  • Title: Immunohistochemical staining patterns of sweat glands and their neoplasms using two monoclonal antibodies to keratins.
    Author: Zuk JA, West KP, Fletcher A.
    Journal: J Cutan Pathol; 1988 Feb; 15(1):8-17. PubMed ID: 2450904.
    Abstract:
    The staining patterns of normal sweat glands and sweat gland-derived neoplasms using 2 monoclonal antibodies to keratins (Dako-CK1, Cam 5.2) has been assessed. Based on findings in normal glands, the differentiation of these benign neoplasms is considered, with positive evidence for apocrine and eccrine differentiation, and in the latter, differentiation to ductal or secretory type epithelia. This easily applied technique (indirect immunoperoxidase) is suitable for use in routinely processed tissue and employs 2 commercially available monoclonal antibodies. The findings may be of assistance in general surgical reporting of problematic cases.
