Human placental alkaline phosphatase (HPLAP), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), and cancer antigen 125 (CA 125) were localized immunohistochemically in paraffin sections of normal lung tissue from 16 patients, using monoclonal antibodies and an indirect avidin-biotin-peroxidase staining procedure. HPLAP and CEA were present in epithelial cells of respiratory bronchioli and alveolar type I pneumocytes. CEA was also observed in the tracheal, bronchial, and bronchiolar epithelium. CA 125 was present in the tracheal, bronchial, bronchiolar, and terminal bronchiolar epithelium; in the tracheal and bronchial glands; and in the pleural mesothelium. Normal and hyperplastic type II pneumocytes were negative for HPLAP, CEA, and CA 125 but were histochemically positive for nonspecific alkaline phosphatase. Fetal lung tissue between 11 and 15 weeks of gestation was negative for HPLAP, CEA, and CA 125. The fetal tracheal and bronchial epithelium, tracheal glands, and pleural mesothelium were positive for CA 125. For ten malignant pulmonary tumors investigated, HPLAP staining was observed in five, CEA in nine, and CA 125 in seven. The localization of HPLAP, CEA, and CA 125 in apparently normal constituents of all pulmonary specimens is in disagreement with the concept that the expression of these substances in the lung is indicative of abnormal cellular activity.
