Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) of the digestive system and blood group substances (BG) were studied in gastric and colon carcinomas by indirect immunofluorescence and mixed-cell agglutination reaction, respectively. In contrast to CEA, no positive correlation between BG and the differentiation of the tumor was found. In adenocarcinomas of the colon and stomach, CEA and BG, if present simultaneously, showed different localizations. CEA was detected on the lumen-oriented surface of the tumor cells, whereas BG were distributed over the whole cell. Anaplastic carcinomas were either CEA negative or contained only minute amounts of CEA, but expressed BG in roughly the same percentage as well-differentiated carcinomas. Signet-ring cells consistently positive for CEA localized in the cytoplasm were mostly BG negative. The BG activity in gastric and colon cancers was ethanol sensitive. Only in some predominantly well-differentiated adenocarcinomas did BG resist to some degree the ethanol treatment. AntiBG serum did not react with CEA in our system, which indicates either that the morphologic methods were too insensitive to detect cross-reactivity or that sites on CEA responsible for the cross-reactions with BG-A antiserum observed in vitro were uncovered during isolation and purification. In some frozen sections of gastric and colon carcinomas, the BG activity detected was noncompatible with the BG of the patient.
