Cancer cells generally displayed weak to moderate immunoreactivity. A few cases of hepatocellular carcinoma showed strong staining. Lymphomas, several cases of gliomas, lung, cervical and urothelial cancers were negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
HPS4 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
BLOC3S2, KIAA1667, LE
Description
Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome 4 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a protein component of biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles complexes (BLOC). BLOC complexes are important for the formation of endosomal-lysosomal organelles such as melanosomes and platelet dense granules. Mutations in this gene result in subtype 4 of Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome, a form of albinism. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2012]
