Anti-lymphocyte antibody Leu-7 (HNK-1) recognizes a constituent of neuroendocrine granule matrix

AS Tischler, H Mobtaker, K Mann, G Nunnemacher, WJ Jason, Y Dayal, RA Delellis, L Adelman and HJ Wolfe

Anti-lymphocyte monoclonal antibody HNK-1 (Leu-7) reacts with the cell surfaces of natural killer (NK) lymphocytes and with myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG). This antibody reacts intensely with normal and neoplastic adrenal medullary cells. A small proportion of normal pancreatic islet cells, anterior pituitary, and gastroenteropancreatic endocrine cells also show Leu-7 immunoreactivity. In adrenal medulla, ultrastructural immunocytochemical studies and immunoblot analyses reveal that Leu-7 reacts with an intracellular protein of MW 75 KD which is localized within the matrices of the chromaffin granules. The MW of this protein differs from those of MAG and chromogranin A. The findings suggest that Leu-7 immunoreactivity might be a new marker for specific subsets of secretory granules.
