Blood group antigen expression in nephroblastoma. 1984

P Gane, and A Roth, and M F Rousseau-Merck, and P Rouger, and C Nezelof

The histological distribution of A, B, H, Lewis, Pr, i and I blood group antigens (BGA) was studied in 19 nephroblastomas and one mesoblastic nephroma by means of the indirect immunofluorescence technique. In addition to general conclusions about the relatively limited BGA expression in the tumour cells, their histological distribution was found to be related to the differentiation level of these renal embryonic tumours. By comparison with normal embryonic, fetal and adult kidney it was shown that the nephroblastoma differentiation level is not higher than that of a 3-month fetal kidney. Furthermore, i antigen appears to be a non-specific marker of the histiocytic macrophage cells of the nephroblastoma stroma.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007519 Isoantigens Antigens that exist in alternative (allelic) forms in a single species. When an isoantigen is encountered by species members who lack it, an immune response is induced. Typical isoantigens are the BLOOD GROUP ANTIGENS. Alloantigens,Alloantigen,Isoantigen

D007684 Kidney Tubules Long convoluted tubules in the nephrons. They collect filtrate from blood passing through the KIDNEY GLOMERULUS and process this filtrate into URINE. Each renal tubule consists of a BOWMAN CAPSULE; PROXIMAL KIDNEY TUBULE; LOOP OF HENLE; DISTAL KIDNEY TUBULE; and KIDNEY COLLECTING DUCT leading to the central cavity of the kidney (KIDNEY PELVIS) that connects to the URETER. Kidney Tubule,Tubule, Kidney,Tubules, Kidney
D009396 Wilms Tumor A malignant kidney tumor, caused by the uncontrolled multiplication of renal stem (blastemal), stromal (STROMAL CELLS), and epithelial (EPITHELIAL CELLS) elements. However, not all three are present in every case. Several genes or chromosomal areas have been associated with Wilms tumor which is usually found in childhood as a firm lump in a child's side or ABDOMEN.

D002648 Child A person 6 to 12 years of age. An individual 2 to 5 years old is CHILD, PRESCHOOL. Children
D005455 Fluorescent Antibody Technique Test for tissue antigen using either a direct method, by conjugation of antibody with fluorescent dye (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, DIRECT) or an indirect method, by formation of antigen-antibody complex which is then labeled with fluorescein-conjugated anti-immunoglobulin antibody (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, INDIRECT). The tissue is then examined by fluorescence microscopy.

D006644 Histiocytes Macrophages found in the TISSUES, as opposed to those found in the blood (MONOCYTES) or serous cavities (SEROUS MEMBRANE). Histiocyte
