Several endometrial and ovarian cancers along with a few cases of lung, skin and urothelial cancers exhibited moderate to strong membranous and/or cytoplasmic positivity. Remaining cancer tissues were negative.
A single case of breast and testicular cancers exhibited strong cytoplasmic positivity. Several cases of breast and a few ovarian and stomach cancers showed weak to moderate staining. Moderate nucleolar staining was observed in a rare case of urothelial cancer. The rest of the cancers were negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
LPAR4 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
GPR23, LPA4, P2RY9, P2Y5-LIKE, P2Y9
Description
Lysophosphatidic acid receptor 4 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the lysophosphatidic acid receptor family. It may also be related to the P2Y receptors, a family of receptors that bind purine and pyrimidine nucleotides and are coupled to G proteins. The encoded protein may play a role in monocytic differentiation. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2009]
