Abstract:
:Immunogold ultrastructural localization of chromogranin A in secretory granules within tumor cells provides convincing evidence of endocrine or neuroendocrine differentiation. A modified immunogold method (designed for use on osmicated tissue) produced positive labeling of small granules not only in well-differentiated tumors but also in poorly differentiated small cell tumors primary in lung, cervix, and skin; only a proportion of granules in some of the tumor cells were positively labeled. Many non-small cell lung tumors often stain focally positive for chromogranin A at the light microscopy level, and such tumors may also contain sparse, small, dense granules. Because positive labeling could not be demonstrated over small granules in non-small cell lung tumors, the theory that such tumors are neuroendocrine in type may be erroneous.
