p63 is more sensitive and specific than 34βE12 to differentiate adenocarcinoma of prostate from cancer mimickers
Authors
Abstract:
Objective(s): Prostate cancer is the world’s leading cause of cancer and the second cause of cancer-related death in men after lung cancer. Differentiation of prostate adenocarcinoma from benign prostate lesions and hyperplasia sometimes cannot be done on the basis of morphologic findings. Considering the fact that in the prostate adenocarcinoma there is no basal cell layer, basal cell markers can help to differentiate prostate adenocarcinoma from cancer mimickers. Materials and Methods:We studied 98 prostate biopsy blocks (40 adenocarcinoma and 58 benign lesions) for basal cell marker expression. Results: p63 and 34βE12 were negative in all prostate adenocarcinoma specimens, but all benign prostate hyperplasia and high grade intraepithelial neoplasia cases expressed them. Conclusion: Basal cell markers can help to distinguish prostate adenocarcinoma from cancer mimickers.

Background: Radiotherapy and adjuvant androgen deprivation therapy have historically been the first treatment choices for prostate cancer but treatment resistance often limits the capacity to effectively manage the disease. Therefore, alternative therapeutic approaches are needed. Here, the efficacies of radiotherapy and targeting the pro-survival cell signaling components epidermal growth fact...
full textCDH17 is a Highly Specific and More Sensitive Marker Than CK20 and CDX2 in Colon Adenocarcinoma and in Stomach Adenocarcinoma
CDH17 stained 100% (99/99) of colon adenocarcinoma, whereas CK20 and CDX2 stained 92% (91/99) and 96% (95/99), respectively (Figure 1A-C and Figure 2A-C). In stomach adenocarcinoma, CDH17 stained 73% (50/69), CK20 28% (19/69) and CDX2 16% (11/69) (Figure 3A-C) (Table 1). CDH17 was positive in 35% (10/29) of pancreatic ductal cell adenocarcinomas (Figure 4A) (data not shown). All cases of pancre...
full textKeratin 13 is a more specific marker of conjunctival epithelium than keratin 19
Introduction To evaluate the expression patterns of cytokeratin (K) 12, 13, and 19 in normal epithelium of the human ocular surface to determine whether K13 could be used as a marker for conjunctival epithelium. Methods: Total RNA was isolated from the human conjunctiva and central cornea. Those transcripts that had threefolds or higher expression levels in the conjunctiva than the cornea wer...
