Most malignant cells showed moderate cytoplasmic and in some cases additional membranous staining. Malignant gliomas, lymphomas, melanomas and testicular malignancies were negative.
Malignant cells generally displayed moderate cytoplasmic positivity. Some colorectal and liver cancers were strongly stained. Several skin cancers, malignant gliomas and lymphomas were negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
ADGRL3 (HGNC Symbol)

KIAA0768, LEC3, LPHN3
Description
Adhesion G protein-coupled receptor L3 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the latrophilin subfamily of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCR). Latrophilins may function in both cell adhesion and signal transduction. In experiments with non-human species, endogenous proteolytic cleavage within a cysteine-rich GPS (G-protein-coupled-receptor proteolysis site) domain resulted in two subunits (a large extracellular N-terminal cell adhesion subunit and a subunit with substantial similarity to the secretin/calcitonin family of GPCRs) being non-covalently bound at the cell membrane.
