title: HNK-I antibody reacts with peripheral nerves and sweat glands in the skin.
abstract: The distribution of Leu-7 antigen was investigated using immunoperoxidase staining technique. It was found that HNK-I monoclonal antibody reacted with peripheral nerves and sweat glands (both apocrine and eccrine) of the skin. HNK-I antibody is a new marker for them, and may help to elucidate the nature of some skin tumours.
