Staining summary

Strong nuclear staining was observed in squamous cell carcinomas, while lymphomas, melanomas, testis- and prostate cancers displayed mostly negative or weakly stained cases. Hepatocellular carcinomas were generally negative in contrast to most cholangio carcinomas where positivity was registered.

GENE INFORMATION

Gene name

FOSL2 (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

FLJ23306, FRA2

Description

FOS-like antigen 2 (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

The Fos gene family consists of 4 members: FOS, FOSB, FOSL1, and FOSL2. These genes encode leucine zipper proteins that can dimerize with proteins of the JUN family, thereby forming the transcription factor complex AP-1. As such, the FOS proteins have been implicated as regulators of cell proliferation, differentiation, and transformation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014]
