Most malignant cells were negative. Cholangiocarcinomas, pancreatic and renal cancers along with several colorectal, ovarian and endometrial cancers exhibited moderate to strong cytoplasmic and membranous staining.
Several renal cancers showed weak to moderate membranous positivity. Most of the remaining malignancies were weakly stained or negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
CDHR2 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
FLJ20124, FLJ20383, PC-LKC, PCDH24, PCLKC
Description
Cadherin-related family member 2 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene is a member of the protocadherin family, which represents a subset of the larger cadherin superfamily. The members of the protocadherin family encode non-classical cadherins that function as calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion molecules. This protocadherin represents a new candidate for tumor suppression. Alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode the same protein have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]
