Moderate to strong nuclear immunoreactivity was observed in several colorectal, stomach, pancreatic, renal, liver cancers and a few testicular cancers. Remaining tumour tissues were generally negative.
Colorectal cancers along with several renal, endometrial, gastric, pancreatic and liver cancers showed moderate to strong nuclear positivity. Remaining tumour cells were generally negative.

HNF1 homeobox A (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a transcription factor required for the expression of several liver-specific genes. The encoded protein functions as a homodimer and binds to the inverted palindrome 5'-GTTAATNATTAAC-3'. Defects in this gene are a cause of maturity onset diabetes of the young type 3 (MODY3) and also can result in the appearance of hepatic adenomas. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2015]
