The Zenon technique conjugates primary antibodies rapidly and quantitatively after which they are used in the same manner as covalently labeled primary antibodies. Digital microscopic images of epidermal expression of keratin 10 and keratin 6 (differentiation), Ki-67 antigen (proliferation), and keratin 15 and β- 1 integrin (basal layer) were analyzed in a standardized way. Co-expression of different proteins was demonstrated. Methods: Sections of normal skin and psoriatic lesions were compared immunohistochemically. Antibodies against keratin 6, 10, and 15 were labeled with the Zenon technique. Antibodies against the Ki-67 antigen and β 1 integrin were covalently fluorescein isothiocyanate- labeled. Using standardized image analysis, intensity and positive surface area of the different antibodies in the epidermis were measured. Results: The number of Ki-67-antigen positive cells was significantly increased in lesional psoriatic skin. Intensity and positive surface area of keratin 10 and β -1 integrin were significantly decreased in comparison to normal epidermis. Differential expression of keratin 6 and keratin 15 was demonstrated. Conclusions: Using Zenon technology and image analysis, a description of morphology, co- expression, and quantification of representative markers for epidermal cell populations is possible.展开更多
