Several cases of urothelial, stomach and liver cancers displayed moderate cytoplasmic staining. A few cases of thyroid cancers were strongly stained. The remaining cancer cells were in general weakly stained or negative.
Most cancer tissues displayed moderate cytoplasmic and membranous immunoreactivity. Pancreatic cancers were strongly stained. Gliomas and testicular cancers were negative or showed weak positivity.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
VPS45 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
h-vps45, H1, VPS45A, VPS45B
Description
Vacuolar protein sorting 45 homolog (S. cerevisiae) (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
Vesicle mediated protein sorting plays an important role in segregation of intracellular molecules into distinct organelles. Genetic studies in yeast have identified more than 40 vacuolar protein sorting (VPS) genes involved in vesicle transport to vacuoles. This gene is a member of the Sec1 domain family, and shows a high degree of sequence similarity to mouse, rat and yeast Vps45. The exact function of this gene is not known, but its high expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells suggests a role in trafficking proteins, including inflammatory mediators. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
