Programmed-death ligand 1 (PD-1) is expressed by germinal center-associated helper T-cells and inhibits T-cell activity. PD-1 is expressed on T-cells, B-cells, and monocytes during activation. PD-1 positivity has been found in angioimmunoblastic lymphoma, primary cutaneous pleomorphic T-cell lymphoma, and nodular lymphocyte- predominant Hodgkin lymphoma but not other subtypes of T-cell and B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas or classic Hodgkin lymphomas.

Variable reactivity is seen for PD-1 in this tonsil specimen with the darkest cytoplasmic reactivity in cells within the follicle.

Lymphocytes of the colonic lamina propria demonstrate variable, weak to strong, cytoplasmic expression of PD-1.

Pancreatic acini and ducts, as well as islet cells are all negative PD-1.
