  • Title: Patterns of reactivity with the monoclonal antibodies HMFG1 and HMFG2 in normal endometrium, endometrial hyperplasia and adenocarcinoma.
    Author: Morris WP, Griffin NR, Wells M.
    Journal: Histopathology; 1989 Aug; 15(2):179-86. PubMed ID: 2476372.
    Abstract:
    Using an indirect immunoperoxidase technique the expression of the epitopes in human milk fat globule (HMFG) membranes detected by the monoclonal antibodies HMFG1 and HMFG2 was studied in the normal endometrium and in cases of cystic glandular hyperplasia, glandular hyperplasia with architectural atypia (complex hyperplasia), glandular hyperplasia with cytological atypia (atypical hyperplasia) and invasive adenocarcinoma. Luminal reactivity with HMFG1 was seen in cases of normal endometrium, cystic glandular hyperplasia and glandular hyperplasia with architectural atypia. In contrast most cases of glandular hyperplasia with cytological atypia and invasive adenocarcinoma also showed areas of cytoplasmic reactivity. Reactivity with HMFG2 was scanty.
