Several non-Hodgkin's lymphomas and hepatocellular carcinomas along with a few renal, testicular and breast cancers displayed moderate to strong cytoplasmic and/or membranous positivity. Remaining malignant cells were in general weakly stained or negative.
Most endometrial cancers and fractions of cases in several other cancer tissues including melanomas, lung and renal cancers showed moderate to strong staining. Cancer cells in general were weakly stained or negative.

Description
Annexin A6 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
Annexin VI belongs to a family of calcium-dependent membrane and phospholipid binding proteins. Several members of the annexin family have been implicated in membrane-related events along exocytotic and endocytotic pathways. The annexin VI gene is approximately 60 kbp long and contains 26 exons. It encodes a protein of about 68 kDa that consists of eight 68-amino acid repeats separated by linking sequences of variable lengths. It is highly similar to human annexins I and II sequences, each of which contain four such repeats. Annexin VI has been implicated in mediating the endosome aggregation and vesicle fusion in secreting epithelia during exocytosis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.
