Most of the cancer tissues displayed weak to moderate cytoplasmic positivity. Prostate cancers along with several breast, pancreatic and liver cancers were negative.
Most cancer tissues showed weak to moderate cytoplasmic immunoreactivity, seen with a granular or dot-like pattern. Additional membranous staining was displayed in few breast, liver and pancreatic cancers. Papillary adenocarcinomas of thyroid and few gliomas were strongly stained. Several squamous cell carcinomas, lymphomas, ovarian, stomach cancers were negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
SLC9A6 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
KIAA0267, NHE6
Description
Solute carrier family 9, subfamily A (NHE6, cation proton antiporter 6), member 6 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a sodium-hydrogen exchanger that is amember of the solute carrier family 9. The encoded protein localizes to early and recycling endosomes and may be involved in regulating endosomal pH and volume. Defects in this gene are associated with X-linked syndromic mental retardation, Christianson type. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Apr 2010]
