pubmed:abstractText |
Murine monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) were produced against a rat medullary thyroid carcinoma to identify neuroendocrine differentiation antigens. One of these antibodies (1D4) identified a novel 62- to 69-kDa antigen expressed by subsets of immune system epithelial and neuroendocrine cells. This antigen is expressed by distinct subsets of thymic epithelial and splenic reticular cells and is shared by discrete subsets of anterior pituitary and thyroid neuroendocrine cells. In the thymus, 1D4 expression identified a unique subset of stellate-shaped Ia+ medullary epithelial cells which did not react with thymosin alpha-1 antisera nor with the MoAb A2B5 specific for a GQ ganglioside expressed by thymic hormone-producing cells. The availability of the 1D4 MoAb should facilitate further characterization of 1D4+ immune system epithelial cells and may advance our understanding of neuroendocrine-immune system interactions.
