Abstract:
:A study was undertaken to determine the potential value of involucrin immunostaining, a protein synthesized by mature squamous epithelial cells, in distinguishing benign from neoplastic lesions in cervical pathology. A total of 146 cervical biopsies were analyzed using an indirect immunoperoxidase method and polyclonal antibody. A suprabasal homogeneous cytoplasmic staining pattern was consistently observed in normal squamous cervical epithelium. In contrast, 43.7% of cervical condylomas showed involucrin at all levels of the epithelium including the basal layer. Variable patterns were seen in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), with 46% of full-thickness stainings, although no significant difference was obtained among the different grades of CIN lesions. Distribution of involucrin was correlated (P less than 0.05) with the degree of tumor differentiation in squamous cell carcinomas, being absent in 71.4% of poorly differentiated carcinomas and focally present in 75% of well-differentiated carcinoma. Lesions of endocervical origin, either benign or malignant, were entirely negative for involucrin. It is concluded that involucrin seems unable to establish a reliable differential diagnosis between benign and neoplastic conditions in cervical pathology, and should therefore be considered only a specific marker of squamous differentiation in both normal and pathological human uterine cervix.
