Abstract:
:The immunohistochemical distribution of the basement membrane (BM) proteins, laminin and type IV collagen, and interstitial type III collagen was investigated in 12 fetal spleens at the 15th-38th gestational weeks (g.w.) and in spleens of 8 infants from term to 4 years. The results were compared with the distribution of the same proteins in adult human spleen. BM proteins were found to be abundantly present in the red pulp of all spleens during the whole of development. The content of type III collagen gradually decreased with advancing age and, in adult spleen, there were only occasional positively staining fibers in Billroth's cords. This finding indicates that the composition of reticular fibers in the red pulp of spleen is different from the reticular fibers elsewhere in lymphoreticular tissue. Early signs of ring fiber formation in the walls of venous sinuses were detectable at the 15th-19th g.w., although their more complete development occurred relatively late from the 36th g.w. onwards. Ring fibers contained both laminin and type IV collagen in all the investigated spleens. They never stained for type III collagen. The developing white pulp was positive for BM proteins, but showed no staining for type III collagen at the 15th g.w. At later ages, the white pulp stained similarly for both BM proteins and type III collagen.
