Immunohistochemical Localization of Keratin, Vimentin and Myosin in Salivary Gland Tumors

Abstract: An immunohistochemical study on keratin, vimentin, and myosin was performed in 117 specimens of human salivary gland under normal and several neoplastic conditions. In normal glands, positive immunostaining for keratin was observed in the inner cells of all ductal systems, whereas myosin and vimentin were the cytoskeletal components of myoepithelial cells. In pleomorphic adenoma, the inner cells showing a tubular pattern demonstrated positive immunostaining for keratin, and the outer cells as well as the neopl… Show more

“…It has been shown in many reports that myoepithelial cells have no part to play in the histogenesis of MEC. [ 8 14 15 16 17 18 ] The three ADCCs were positive for α-SMA in this study. This confirms findings in many previous reports in the literature that myoepithelial cell play an prominent role in histogenesis of ADCC.…”

“…The antigenic profile of human salivary glands has been studied by many authors (2,3,(6)(7)(8)10,12,15,19,20,22,26,27,29,30,32,33,36,37). Much less is known about immunohistochemical properties of lacrimal glands (13,22,39,43,45,47).…”
