Several cases of testis and hepatocellular cancers showed moderate cytoplasmic expression with additional membranous positivity. Remaining cancer tissues were generally negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
KCND1 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
Kv4.1
Description
Potassium channel, voltage gated Shal related subfamily D, member 1 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a multipass membrane protein that comprises the pore subunit of the voltage-gated A-type potassium channel, which functions in the repolarization of membrane action potentials. Activity of voltage-gated potassium channels is important in a number of physiological processes, among them the regulation of neurotransmitter release, heart rate, insulin secretion, and smooth muscle contraction.
