Immunohistochemical distribution of fibronectin in the mucosa with chronic sinusitis. 1991

Department of Otolaryngology, University of Tokyo, Japan.

The distribution of fibronectin (FN) in operative specimens of maxillary sinus mucosa from 35 patients with chronic sinusitis was examined immunohistochemically. Mouse monoclonal antibody to human FN was used for the peroxidase-antiperoxidase staining technique. FN was found in most of the serous cells and in some (about 10%) of the mucous cells in the nasal glands, and also in the nasal fluid in the lumina. It was not found elsewhere, be it in the epithelial cells, the basement membrane, or the interstitial tissue, except in two patients. These results suggest that FN is produced in the nasal glands and secreted into the nasal fluid in the maxillary sinus in chronic sinusitis.

D008443 Maxillary Sinus The air space located in the body of the MAXILLARY BONE near each cheek. Each maxillary sinus communicates with the middle passage (meatus) of the NASAL CAVITY on the same side.

D009092 Mucous Membrane An EPITHELIUM with MUCUS-secreting cells, such as GOBLET CELLS. It forms the lining of many body cavities, such as the DIGESTIVE TRACT, the RESPIRATORY TRACT, and the reproductive tract. Mucosa, rich in blood and lymph vessels, comprises an inner epithelium, a middle layer (lamina propria) of loose CONNECTIVE TISSUE, and an outer layer (muscularis mucosae) of SMOOTH MUSCLE CELLS that separates the mucosa from submucosa.

D002908 Chronic Disease Diseases which have one or more of the following characteristics: they are permanent, leave residual disability, are caused by nonreversible pathological alteration, require special training of the patient for rehabilitation, or may be expected to require a long period of supervision, observation, or care (Dictionary of Health Services Management, 2d ed). For epidemiological studies chronic disease often includes HEART DISEASES; STROKE; CANCER; and diabetes (DIABETES MELLITUS, TYPE 2).

D005353 Fibronectins Glycoproteins found on the surfaces of cells, particularly in fibrillar structures. The proteins are lost or reduced when these cells undergo viral or chemical transformation. They are highly susceptible to proteolysis and are substrates for activated blood coagulation factor VIII. The forms present in plasma are called cold-insoluble globulins.
