Several cases of gliomas, melanomas, liver, renal, testicular, skin, thyroid and colorectal cancers displayed weak to moderate cytoplasmic staining. Rare case of renal cancer was strongly stained. Remaining cancer tissues were generally negative.
Fractalkine is a transmembrane protein and chemokine involved in the adhesion and migration of leukocytes. The protein encoded by this gene is a receptor for fractalkine. The encoded protein also is a coreceptor for HIV-1, and some variations in this gene lead to increased susceptibility to HIV-1 infection and rapid progression to AIDS. Four transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]
