These four slices (from 2 lymph nodes of 2 cases), negative for micrometastases with MART-1 and Melan-A, showed melanoma micrometastases predominantly as single cells.
No sections which were negative for micrometastases with the cocktail demonstrated micrometastases with MART-1 and Melan-A individually.
As expected, combining a monoclonal antibody to tyrosinase with MART-1 and Melan-A in the cocktail increased the spectrum to encompass three epitopes of two melanoma antigens (MART-1/Melan-A and tyrosinase).
Thus, MART-1 and Melan-A individually could not detect micrometastases in 16% (4/25) of the slices.
As previously reported, MART-1 and Melan-A demonstrated predominantly cytoplasmic staining of melanoma cells [ 6 ] . The monoclonal antibody (T311) to tyrosinase, has been reported to demonstrate high sensitivity and specificity for melanoma [ 13 ] . It has also demonstrated an immunostaining pattern in sentinel lymph nodes identical to MART-1 and Melan-A.
