Hepatocellular carcinomas along with a few cases of lung cancers showed moderate cytoplasmic immunoreactivity. Remaining cancers were generally negative.
Cases of ductal breast carcinomas, colorectal and stomach cancers showed moderate to strong cytoplasmic or membranous positivity. Cancer cells in general were negative.
This gene encodes an integral membrane protein that is secreted from intracellular zymogen granules and associates with the plasma membrane via glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) linkage. The encoded protein binds pathogens such as enterobacteria, thereby playing an important role in the innate immune response. The C-terminus of this protein is related to the C-terminus of the protein encoded by the neighboring gene, uromodulin (UMOD). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
