NCIt definition : An immunohistochemical technique utilizing the mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody D2-40,
which is directed against the human O-linked sialoglycoprotein podoplanin (PDPN).
D2-40 specifically binds to PDPN, a protein that is selectively expressed in normal
lymphatic endothelium as well as in vascular lesions of lymphatic origin. This staining
method can detect aberrant expression of lymphatic epithelium, which is associated
with lymphangioma, Kaposi sarcoma, epithelioid mesothelioma and seminoma.;
