Head and neck cancers along with few cases of melanomas, urothelial, pancreatic, breast and ovarian cancers showed weak to moderate cytoplasmic and/or membranous staining. Remaining cancer tissues were negative.
Few skin, renal cancers along with head and neck cancers showed weak to moderate cytoplasmic and/or membranous positivity. Other cancer tissues were in general negative.
A subset of tumor cells in few cases of melanoma, ovarian, cervix, urothelial and endometrial cancers showed moderate membranous staining. Few cases of hepatocellular carcinoma exhibited moderate cytoplasmic staining. Remaining cancer tissues were weakly stained or mainly negative.

Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) family. VEGFR family members are receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) which contain an extracellular ligand-binding region with seven immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domains, a transmembrane segment, and a tyrosine kinase (TK) domain within the cytoplasmic domain. This protein binds to VEGFR-A, VEGFR-B and placental growth factor and plays an important role in angiogenesis and vasculogenesis. Expression of this receptor is found in vascular endothelial cells, placental trophoblast cells and peripheral blood monocytes. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Isoforms include a full-length transmembrane receptor isoform and shortened, soluble isoforms. The soluble isoforms are associated with the onset of pre-eclampsia.[provided by RefSeq, May 2009]
