Abstract
Intermediate filaments are a major component of the cytoskeleton in many types of cells. Monoclonal antibodies against intermediate filament proteins have proven to be very useful reagents in the specific identification of various types of cells, and consequently, have found major use in the histochemical characterization of tumors (1,2,3). Epithelial cells, such as those in the mammary gland, contain intermediate filaments composed of keratin. These proteins, which are found in both normal and neoplastic mammary cells, have been the subject of intense research during the past several years (4,5).
