Abstract

The Ki-1 antibody not only detects a Hodgkin-associated membrane molecule of 120 kd (Ki-1/120 = CD30), but also reacts with an independently synthesized molecule of 57 kd (Ki-1/57) that only occurs intracellularly. Hodgkin's disease-derived cell lines L428 and L540 contain both Ki-1-reactive antigens, whereas others, e.g., U266/Bl myeloma cells, only express the intracellular Ki-1/57. The present immunoelectronmicroscopic analysis detected the Ki-1/57 antigen of U266/Bl cells not only in the cytoplasm, but also in association with the nuclear envelope, chromatin structures, and nucleoli. This Ki-1/57-specific type of labeling also was observed in L428 and L540 cells that, in contrast to U266/Bl cells, showed an additional staining of cell membranes and cytoplasmic vesicles. These results were confirmed by two independent methods: 1) cytocentrifuge preparations of isolated nuclei of L540 cells showed a spotted Ki-1-specific labeling, 2) immunoprecipitations demonstrated that the Ki-1/57, but not the Ki-1/120 antigen, was transferred into the nuclei of L540 and U266/Bl cells, whereas the Ki-1/120 antigen with its 90-kd precursor remained in the non-nuclei fraction of L540 cells.
