Weak to moderate cytoplasmic and nuclear immunoreactivity was observed in most cancer tissues. Additional membranous positivity was observed in a few cancers. A few basal cell carcinomas and lung adenocarcinomas were strongly stained. Carcinoids, lymphomas and prostate cancers were negative.
Most of the cancers showed moderate nuclear staining with additional cytoplasmic positivity in many cases. A few cases of gliomas, lung adenocarcinomas, ductal breast carcinomas and high grade urothelial cancers were strongly stained. Several lymphomas were negative.
Most cancers displayed weak to moderate cytoplasmic and nuclear staining. Strong staining was observed in cases of melanomas and skin cancers. Lymphomas and prostate cancers along with several cases of breast and renal cancers were negative.
This gene is a member of the zyxin family and encodes a protein with three LIM zinc-binding domains. This protein localizes to focal adhesion sites and along actin stress fibers. Recruitment of this protein to the plasma membrane occurs in a lysophosphatidic acid (LPA)-dependent manner and it regulates LPA-induced cell migration. Alternatively spliced variants which encode different protein isoforms have been described; however, not all variants have been fully characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
