A majority cancer tissues showed moderate to strong cytoplasmic positivity, with a granular pattern. Several cases of renal cancers and squamous cell carcinomas of cervix were negative.
Cancer tissues showed moderate cytoplasmic staining. Several cases of melanoma, liver, stomach cancers along with few cases of gliomas, testis and lung cancers displayed strong positivity.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
ARHGAP6 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
rhoGAPX-1
Description
Rho GTPase activating protein 6 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the rhoGAP family of proteins which play a role in the regulation of actin polymerization at the plasma membrane during several cellular processes. This protein is thought to have two independent functions, one as a GTPase-activating protein with specificity for RhoA, and another as a cytoskeletal protein that promotes actin remodeling. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
