Moderate cytoplasmic immunoreactivity was observed in several gliomas, carcinoids and thyroid cancers as well as a few breast cancers. Remaining cancers were generally negative.
Most cancer tissues displayed weak to moderate cytoplasmic and/or nuclear/membranous staining. Gliomas, lymphomas, squamous cell carcinomas, renal, stomach and liver cancers were in general negative.

Description
Paralemmin (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the paralemmin protein family. The product of this gene is a prenylated and palmitoylated phosphoprotein that associates with the cytoplasmic face of plasma membranes and is implicated in plasma membrane dynamics in neurons and other cell types. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified, but the full-length nature of only two transcript variants has been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
