1 Higher Frequency of Selective Losses of HLA-A and -B Allospecificities in Metastasis Than in Primary Melanoma Lesions  Ralf Christian Geertsen, Günther Franz L. Hofbauer, Feng-Yun Yue, Silvana Manolio, Günter Burg, Reinhard Dummer  Journal of Investigative Dermatology  Volume 111, Issue 3, Pages (September 1998) DOI: /j x Copyright © 1998 The Society for Investigative Dermatology, Inc Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 Immunohistochemical staining of cryostat sections from tumor biopsies of melanoma patients. (a) Sample 22, with a specific loss of HLA-B7 allospecificity, stained with BB7.1 MoAb; (b) sample 12a stained with BB7.2 MoAb specific for HLA-A2; (c) sample 12b also stained with BB7.2 MoAb and with W6.32 MoAb (d). Scale bars: (a) 400 μm, (b) 50 μm, (c, d) 25 μm. Journal of Investigative Dermatology  , DOI: ( /j x) Copyright © 1998 The Society for Investigative Dermatology, Inc Terms and Conditions

3 Figure 2 Detection of immunocritical surface molecules on melanoma cells. Cytofluorometric analysis of control cell line UKRV-Mel2 stained for surface expression of HLA-I (a), HLA-II (b), for cytoplasmic β2M (c), and of sample 39 stained with MoAb specific for ICAM-1 (d) and HLA-II (e). Cells cultivated in the presence of IFN-α (a, c) or IFN-γ (b, d, e) are shown as bold lines. Isotype control is represented by shaded areas.

4 Figure 3 Cytofluorometric analysis of melanoma cells from patient 12 cultured in the absence (fine line) or the presence (bold line) of IFN-α. Samples were stained with MoAb specific for HLA-I (a, b) or HLA-A2 (c, d). Isotype control is represented by shaded areas.
