- Abstract
- PC10, a monoclonal antibody (mAb) to proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) is known to show immunoreactivity in paraffin-embedded specimens. The authors present the relation between PCNA expression and clinicopathological features in 38 intracranial meningiomas. PCNA scores were obtained by immunohistochemical staining of the paraffin-embedded sections using a streptoavidin-biotin immunoperoxidase method with PC10 mAb. Univariate analysis showed that high PC10 scores were associated with old age (greater than or equal to 50 years old), male, recurrent tumours, and meningothelial type. However, these high scores did not reach a statistical significance (P >0.05). PC10 scores of the basal meningioma tended to be higher than that of the hemispheric meningioma (P <0.05). The staining intensity of PCNA was also markedly increased in basal meningiomas. It is suggested that the proliferative potential is higher in basal meningiomas than in hemispheric meningiomas. Moreover, these results could reflect high recurrence and difficulty in management of the skull base meningiomas.
