Several cases of of endometrial cancer showed moderate cytoplasmic positivity. Tumor stroma in several cancers including colorectal, gastric and skin cancers were positive. Remaining cancer tissues were negative.
Several cases of breast, cervical, endometrial, skin, testis, urothelial, gastric, pancreatic and liver cancer showed moderate to strong cytoplasmic positivity. Remaining cancer tissues were weakly stained or negative.
Moderate to strong cytoplasmic and membranous immunoreactivity was observed in several endometrial cancers. Fraction of tumor cells in few cases of testicular, urothelial and prostate cancers showed weak to moderate cytoplasmic and nuclear staining. Remaining cancer tissues were mainly negative.

Description
Fibulin 1 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
Fibulin 1 is a secreted glycoprotein that becomes incorporated into a fibrillar extracellular matrix. Calcium-binding is apparently required to mediate its binding to laminin and nidogen. It mediates platelet adhesion via binding fibrinogen. Four splice variants which differ in the 3' end have been identified. Each variant encodes a different isoform, but no functional distinctions have been identified among the four variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
