Alkaline Phosphatase (Placental)/PLAP [ALP/870]
Description Reacts with a 70kDa membrane-bound isozyme (Regan and Nagao type) of Placental Alkaline Phosphatase (PLAP) occurring in the placenta during the 3rd trimester of gestation. It is highly specific for PLAP and shows no cross-reaction with other isozymes of alkaline phosphatase. Anti-PLAP reacts with germ cell tumors and can discriminate between these and other neoplasms. Somatic neoplasms e.g. breast, gastrointestinal, prostatic, and urinary cancers may also immunoreact with antibodies to PLAP. Anti-PLAP positivity in conjunction with anti-keratin negativity favors seminoma over carcinoma. Germ cell tumors are usually anti-keratin positive, but they regularly fail to stain with anti-EMA, whereas most carcinomas stain with anti-EMA. Anti-PLAP has been useful in the diagnosis of gestational trophoblastic disease.

Alkaline Phosphatase (tissue-nonspecific) [ALAP/597]
Description There are at least four distinct but related alkaline phosphatases: intestinal, placental, placental-like, and liver/bone/kidney (tissue non-specific). The first three are located together on chromosome 2, while the tissue non-specific form is located on chromosome 1. The product of this gene is a membrane bound glycosylated enzyme that is not expressed in any particular tissue and is, therefore, referred to as the tissue-nonspecific form of the enzyme. The exact physiological function of the alkaline phosphatases is not known. A proposed function of this form of the enzyme is matrix mineralization; however, mice that lack a functional form of this enzyme show normal skeletal development. This enzyme has been linked directly to hypo-phosphatasia, a disorder that is characterized by hypercalcemia and includes skeletal defects. The character of this disorder can vary, however, depending on the specific mutation since this determines age of onset and severity of symptoms.

Alpha-1-Antichymotrypsin (SERPINA3) [AACT/1451]
Description Alpha-1-Antichymotrypsin (ACT) is a serine protease inhibitor. It forms a complex with serine protease, a prostate-specific antigen in human serum. ACT can be found in most cells of myeloid lineage and is, therefore, useful in the identification of neoplastic myeloid cells within extramedullary tissues such as acute myeloid leukemia. This enzyme is also localized in the spindle cells and round cells of true histiocytic lymphomas as well as in most thyroid papillary carcinomas. ACT is expressed in various normal and neoplastic cells.

Alpha-1-Antitrypsin (SERPINA1) [AAT/1378]
Description It recognizes a protein of 54kDa, which is identified antitrypsin (AAT). The immunohistochemical staining of AAT is useful in identification of benign and malignant hepatic tumors and yolk sac carcinomas. Positive staining for AAT is also used in detection of benign and malignant lesions of histiocytic nature. This antibody is may also useful tool in the screening of patients with cryptogenic cirrhosis or other forms of liver disease with fibrosis of uncertain origin.

Amyloid A Serum [SAA/326]
Description Serum Amyloid A (SAA) is an acute-phase protein primarily synthesized in the liver. While it is typically found at low concentrations in healthy individuals, pro-inflammatory cytokines upregulate SAA production to encourage recruitment of immune cells to inflammatory sites. Amyloidosis is a disease characterized by the abnormal build-up of amyloid, abnormal non-branching fibrillary β-pleated sheet proteins that are insoluble and highly resistant to proteolytic degradation that result in localized or systemic organ dysfunction. Amyloidoses are grouped as AL (primary), AA (secondary), and hereditary forms. Proper classification is important since treatment and prognoses of the disorders are vastly different. AA amyloidosis is associated with a variety of chronic inflammatory conditions and infections, derived from SAA. Immunohistochemical staining using a panel of antibodies including κ and λ Ig light chains, amyloid A, and transthyretin can aid in recognizing most forms of amyloid.
