To examine the expression of estrogen receptors in mast cells, CD4+, CD8+ and CD68+ cells in human nasal polyps.
Immunohistochemical and dual immunostaining methods were used with mouse monoclonal antibodies against human estrogen receptors, a range of human immune cell types included CD4+ (helper T-cells), CD8+ (suppressor/cytotoxic T-cells), CD68+ (Macrophages) cells and mast cells.
Coincident with the known features of human nasal polyps, all the immune/inflammatory cell types examined were clearly detected with corresponding monoclonal antibodies. The cells positive for estrogen receptor were morphologically similar to the mast cells but distinct from CD4+, CD8+ or CD68+ cells. The cells stained for estrogen receptors by dual immunostaining coincided exactly with cells labeled as mast cells but differed from CD4+, CD8+ or CD68+ cells.
Estrogen receptors express only in mast cells, but not in CD4+, CD8+ or CD68+ cells in the human upper airway.
检测人鼻息肉中肥大细胞、CD4⁺、CD8⁺和CD68⁺细胞中雌激素受体的表达情况。
采用免疫组织化学和双重免疫染色方法,使用抗人雌激素受体的小鼠单克隆抗体,检测一系列人类免疫细胞类型,包括CD4⁺(辅助性T细胞)、CD8⁺(抑制性/细胞毒性T细胞)、CD68⁺(巨噬细胞)细胞和肥大细胞。
与已知的人鼻息肉特征相符,所有检测的免疫/炎症细胞类型均能用相应的单克隆抗体清晰检测到。雌激素受体阳性细胞在形态上与肥大细胞相似,但与CD4⁺、CD8⁺或CD68⁺细胞不同。双重免疫染色显示,雌激素受体染色的细胞与标记为肥大细胞的细胞完全一致,但与CD4⁺、CD8⁺或CD68⁺细胞不同。
雌激素受体仅在人上呼吸道的肥大细胞中表达,而不在CD4⁺、CD8⁺或CD68⁺细胞中表达。
