Most malignant gliomas and a few cases of breast cancers showed moderate to strong cytoplasmic immunoreactivity. Remaining malignancies were generally negative.
Distinct cytoplasmic staining in most malignant gliomas. Positivity was also seen in tumor stroma in many tumors. Virtually no staining in any other malignant cells.

Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a protein associated with the cytoplasmic surface of synaptic vesicles. A subset of patients with stiff-man syndrome who were also affected by breast cancer are positive for autoantibodies against this protein. Alternate splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants encoding different isoforms. Additional splice variants have been described, but their full length sequences have not been determined. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 11.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]
