A majority of malignant cells displayed moderate cytoplasmic positivity with additional nuclear staining in several cases. Occasional cases of malignant lymphoma, colorectal, breast, prostate, ovarian and lung cancers were strongly stained. Several cases of malignant glioma were weakly stained or negative.

Description
Kaptin (actin binding protein) (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a filamentous-actin-associated protein, which is involved in actin dynamics and plays an important role in neuromorphogenesis. Mutations in this gene result in recessive mental retardation-41. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2014]
