Most cancer cells showed weak to moderate cytoplasmic staining. Cases of pancreatic and thyroid cancers displayed additional membranous positivity. Most lymphomas and several cases of lung, prostate and colorectal cancers were negative.
A majority of cancers displayed moderate cytoplasmic staining. Most melanomas and cases of lymphomas were strongly stained. Several cases of hepatocellular carcinomas, gliomas, lung and renal adenocarcinomas were weakly stained or negative.

Description
Signal transducing adaptor molecule (SH3 domain and ITAM motif) 1 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the signal-transducing adaptor molecule family. These proteins mediate downstream signaling of cytokine receptors and also play a role in ER to Golgi trafficking by interacting with the coat protein II complex. The encoded protein also associates with hepatocyte growth factor-regulated substrate to form the endosomal sorting complex required for transport-0 (ESCRT-0), which sorts ubiquitinated membrane proteins to the ESCRT-1 complex for lysosomal degradation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2011]
