Discrimination between immunoaccessory and phagocytic monocytes/macrophages of the skin in paraffin-embedded tissue by the monoclonal antibody Ki-M1P.

Abstract excerpt

The variety of functions performed by monocytes and macrophages is reflected in their phenotypic diversity. Investigation of this complex system is facilitated by Ki-M1P, a new monoclonal antibody which recognizes a differentiation antigen on monocytes/macrophages in paraffin-embedded tissues. To test its usefulness as a pan-macrophage marker in the skin, we immunohistochemically analysed paraffin-embedded biopsy...
