Staining summary

Few cases of colorectal, breast and pancreatic cancers showed strong cytoplasmic and nucleolar positivity. Malignant lymphomas and prostate cancer were generally negative while the remaining malignancies displayed weak to moderate cytoplasmic and nucleolar staining.

GENE INFORMATION

Gene name

ECM2

Synonyms

Description

Extracellular matrix protein 2, female organ and adipocyte specific (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

ECM2 encodes extracellular matrix protein 2, so named because it shares extensive similarity with known extracelluar matrix proteins. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2010]
