Class distribution of immunoglobulin-containing plasma cells in the stroma of medullary carcinoma of breast.

Abstract:

:A class distribution of plasma cells associated with the stroma in twenty-eight cases of medullary carcinoma of the breast was investigated by an unlabeled immunoperoxidase method. The stroma of the medullary carcinomas tested was found to contain predominantly IgG plasma cells except in two cases. Stroma of the other types of breast carcinoma, including ten cases of papillo-tubular carcinoma, five cases of scirrhous carcinoma, and six cases of medullary tubular carcinoma, contained predominantly IgG plasma cells, although few plasma cells were associated with carcinoma tissues in the latter group. Plasma cells associated with control specimens, including normal breast, fibroadenoma, cystic disease, and intraductal papilloma, were found to be predominantly of IgA type. Few carcinomatous epithelial cells contained secretory components in the cytoplasm, while a number of cells positive for secretory components were observed in acinar and ductular epithelia of normal breast tissues and in benign proliferative lesions of the breast. It is suggested that the lymphoid cells infiltrating the stroma of medullary carcinoma represent a sign of host immune response against the carcinoma cells which is related to the well-known favorable prognosis associated with this tumor.
