Popis: | Diagnostic use of antibodies against aquaporin water channel proteins and PAX-2, a nuclear transcription factor in renal development, was tested in 202 renal neoplasms, using tissue microarray technique. Immunohistochemistry for aquaporin-1, aquaporin-2, PAX-2, CD10, and cytokeratin 7 was performed on 102 clear cell renal cell carcinomas, 44 papillary renal cell carcinomas (among them 34 type 1 and 10 type 2), 24 chromophobe renal cell carcinomas, three collecting duct carcinomas (carcinomas of the collecting ducts of Bellini), and 29 oncocytomas. Aquaporin-1 expression was found in clear cell renal cell carcinomas and papillary renal cell carcinomas of both types (78 and 73%, respectively), but not in chromophobe renal cell carcinomas, collecting duct carcinomas, and oncocytomas. Aquaporin-2 expression was not seen in any of the tested tumors. PAX-2 and CD10 was found in the majority of clear cell renal cell carcinomas (88 and 85%, respectively) but only in few papillary renal cell carcinomas, chromophobe renal cell carcinomas and oncocytomas. Decrease or loss of aquaporin-1 and PAX-2 was shown in higher grades compared to lower grades of clear cell renal cell carcinomas (P |
