要旨

The localization of membrane-bound γ-glutamyltransferase with monoclonal antibody (mAb) 138H11 proved to be of value for differential diagnosis of renal cancer, since it correlated with the histogenetic profile of human epithelial renal tumours. Immunoreactive γ-glutamyltransferase was located in the proximal tubule in all normal human kidneys (15/15) examined thus far by both ultrastructural and immunohistochemical techniques. From 68 epithelial renal cancers tested, 31/31 clear-cell carcinomas and 15/16 chromophilic carcinomas expressed the target epitope of mAb 138H11. In contrast, 0/11 oncocytomas, 0/9 chromophobic carcinomas, and 0/1 Duct-Bellini carcinoma were immunoreactive. These results support a model of histogenesis and classification of epithelial renal tumours, according to which clear-cell and chromophilic renal carcinomas originate from transformed proximal tubule cells, whereas oncocytomas, chromophilic and Duct-Bellini carcinomas originate from cells of the collecting duct.
