Most cancer tissues exhibited moderate nuclear positivity. Rare cases of squamous cell carcinoma of skin and renal cancer showed strong positivity. Thyroid cancers showed moderate cytoplasmic and nuclear staining. The prostate, testis, liver and colorectal cancers along with carcinoids were weakly stained or negative.

Description
Chloride intracellular channel 3 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
Chloride channels are a diverse group of proteins that regulate fundamental cellular processes including stabilization of cell membrane potential, transepithelial transport, maintenance of intracellular pH, and regulation of cell volume. Chloride intracellular channel 3 is a member of the p64 family and is predominantly localized in the nucleus and stimulates chloride ion channel activity. In addition, this protein may participate in cellular growth control, based on its association with ERK7, a member of the MAP kinase family. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
