Immunoreactive-FSH in human normal gastric mucosa.
Using indirect immuno-peroxidase staining technique, localization of immunoreactive follicle-stimulating hormone (IR-FSH) is demonstrated in the cytoplasm of the epithelial cells of normal human stomach. In view of their triangular shape and central nucleus and their predominance in the intermediate glands of the gastric mucosa, these cells are identified as parietal cells. The stromal tissue is devoid of staining reaction.
