Abstract

We performed a comparative investigation of the immunomorphological characteristics of lymphatic and blood microvascular endothelial cells in normal human skin, cutaneous lymphangiomas, and hemangiomas, employing a pre-embedding immunogold electron microscopic technique. We stained for cell membrane proteins that are commonly used for light microscopic characterization of blood endothelial cells. With blood microvascular endothelial cells, we observed uniform labeling of the luminal cell membranes with monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) JC70 (CD31), EN-4 (CD31), BMA120, PAL-E, and QBEND-10 (CD34), and strong staining of the vascular basal lamina for Type IV collagen under normal and pathological conditions. In contrast, lymphatic microvascular endothelial cells in normal human skin and in lymphangiomas displayed, in addition to a luminal labeling, pronounced expression of CD31 and CD34 along the abluminal cell membranes. Moreover, CD31 was preferentially detected within intercellular junctions. The expression of CD34 was mostly confined to abluminal endothelial microprocesses and was upregulated in lymphangiomas and hemangiomas. Type IV collagen partially formed the luminal lining of initial lymphatics and occasionally formed bridges...Continue Reading
