Most malignancies showed weak to moderate nuclear staining. Malignant carcinoid and several malignant gliomas were strongly stained.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
FOXA3 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
HNF3G
Description
Forkhead box A3 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the forkhead class of DNA-binding proteins. These hepatocyte nuclear factors are transcriptional activators for liver-specific transcripts such as albumin and transthyretin, and they also interact with chromatin. Similar family members in mice have roles in the regulation of metabolism and in the differentiation of the pancreas and liver. The crystal structure of a similar protein in rat has been resolved.
