Malignant cells showed moderate cytoplasmic and occasional membranous staining. Several cases of hepatocellular carcinomas, malignant gliomas, lymphomas, carcinoids along with occasional cases of prostate, ovarian, endometrial, urothelial and pancreatic cancers exhibited strong positivity.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
CUX2 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
CDP2, CUTL2, KIAA0293
Description
Cut-like homeobox 2 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a protein which contains three CUT domains and a homeodomain; both domains are DNA-binding motifs. A similar gene, whose gene product possesses different DNA-binding activities, is located on chromosome on chromosome 7. Two pseudogenes of this gene have been identified on chromosomes 10 and 4.
