ABSTRACT
To optimize the immunohistochemical detection of the multidrug resistance (MDR)-associated P-glycoprotein (P-gp) in chronic lymphoid disorders, the authors compared the sensitivity of three different monoclonal antibodies (MoAb) directed against P-gp (C219, JSB-1, and MRK 16) by using the APAAP technique on four tissue preparations obtained from lymphoid tumors Cryostat sections, ModAMEX processed sections, frozen cytospin preparations, and fresh cytospin preparations. Tumor samples were obtained from patients with previously treated chronic lymphocytic leukemia (6 cases) or non-Hodgkin's malignant lymphoma (4 cases). Lymph nodes (n = 9), spleen (n = 3), and blood (n = 5) were analyzed. JSB-1 MoAb detected P-gp in 4 of 12 cases (33.3%) on either frozen sections or ModAMEX processed sections, and in 6 of 17 cases (35.3%) on frozen cytospin preparations. The sensitivity of JSB-1 was significantly improved when fresh cytospin preparations were used with an incidence of P-gp positive samples as high as 70.6% (P < .05). C219 MoAb was unreactive with lymphoid cells whatever the technique used, whereas this antibody stained stromal cells. MRK 16 MoAb was equally reactive to JSB-1 on fresh cytospin preparations, but unreactive when the other preparations were used. The specificity of JSB1 MoAb was confirmed by both Western blot analysis and Rhodamine 123 efflux assay. The authors used JSB-1 MoAb on fresh cytospin smears prepared from 28 CLL patients. Overall incidence of P-gp positive cases was 39.2%. Univariate analysis showed that P-gp expression was correlated with prior therapy, refractoriness to treatment, Rai stratification, and time of tissue storage after diagnosis. The authors recommend the use of JSB-1 on fresh cytospin preparations for the immunocytochemical detection of P-gp in chronic lymphoid disorders.
