Seminomas of testis showed moderate membranous staining. Several cases of prostate cancers showed weak cytoplasmic staining. Remaining malignant cells along with stroma were generally negative.
Several cases of testicular, breast, prostate, urothelial and colorectal cancers showed weak to moderate cytoplasmic staining. Remaining malignant cells were generally negative.

Description
Hyaluronan synthase 3 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The protein encoded by this gene is involved in the synthesis of the unbranched glycosaminoglycan hyaluronan, or hyaluronic acid, which is a major constituent of the extracellular matrix. This gene is a member of the NODC/HAS gene family. Compared to the proteins encoded by other members of this gene family, this protein appears to be more of a regulator of hyaluronan synthesis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]
