Neuron-specific enolase immunoreactivity in rat and mouse phaeochromocytomas.
Neuron-specific enolase (NSE) was found to be consistently present in the rat and mouse adrenal medulla in the normal and neoplastic state. It is suggested that NSE immunoreactivity may be a useful tool in the differential diagnosis of phaeochromocytomas.
