Most cancer tissues showed weak to moderate cytoplasmic positivity, often with a granular pattern. Carcinoids and several cases of skin and cervical cancers were negative.
A majority of cancer tissues showed weak to moderate cytoplasmic immunoreactivity with a granular pattern.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
NRP1 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
CD304, NRP, VEGF165R
Description
Neuropilin 1 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes one of two neuropilins, which contain specific protein domains which allow them to participate in several different types of signaling pathways that control cell migration. Neuropilins contain a large N-terminal extracellular domain, made up of complement-binding, coagulation factor V/VIII, and meprin domains. These proteins also contains a short membrane-spanning domain and a small cytoplasmic domain. Neuropilins bind many ligands and various types of co-receptors; they affect cell survival, migration, and attraction. Some of the ligands and co-receptors bound by neuropilins are vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and semaphorin family members. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]
