Clinical Study

A Normal Range of KL-6/MUC1 Independent of Elevated SP-D Indicates a Better Prognosis in the Patients with Honeycombing on High-Resolution Computed Tomography

Immunohistochemistry of SP-D and KL-6/MUC1 in IPF lungs. Double-fluorescent immunohistochemistry for SP-D (in red) and KL-6/MUC1 (in green) in IPF lung tissues revealed SP-D-positive materials within both pulmonary veins (PV) and lymphatics (L). In contrast, KL-6/MUC1 was not included in pulmonary veins but only in lymphatics (scale bars = 10 μm).
