Immunoperoxidase localization of GCDFP-15 with mouse monoclonal antibodies versus rabbit antiserum

G Mazoujian, TH Parish and DE Haagensen

Department of Pathology, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts.

Five monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) raised against separate determinants on a breast gross cystic disease fluid protein of 15 KD (GCDFP-15) were compared to one another and to a rabbit antiserum (Rb) against GCDFP-15 by radioimmunoassay (RIA) and by immunoperoxidase localization in paraffin-embedded tissues. All five Mabs and the Rb were equivalent in recognition of GCDFP-15 in solution, as determined by RIA. However, two of the Mabs (A5, B15) showed only minimal binding to GCDFP-15 in paraffin-embedded tissues, whereas the other three Mabs (B1, B4, D6) were equivalent to the Rb in staining intensity. These latter three Mabs and the Rb were evaluated by the immunoperoxidase technique on a variety of benign and malignant neoplasms as well as normal tissues (150 specimens) for staining specificity. Immunoperoxidase staining by the three Mabs vs the Rb was equivalent in apocrine glands, metaplastic apocrine epithelium of breast, and breast carcinomas with apocrine features. No staining of the Mabs or Rb was seen in the other tissue specimens.
