claudin

Examples

• All

• Finally, in colorectal adenocarcinomas, claudin-1 expression can be found not only at cell-cell boundaries but also in the cytoplasm of tumor cells.

• There is increasing evidence that tumor cells can show aberrant expression or abnormal cellular localization of claudin-1.

  Academic text (2007)

• In contrast, no immunoreactivity for claudin-1 was seen in any of the other tumor types.

  Academic text (2007)

• Our findings with regard to claudin-1 expression in meningiomas are comparable to those reported recently by Rajaram et al. 2

  Academic text (2007)

• In total, 42 (53%) of 80 meningiomas were immunoreactive for claudin-1, whereas none of the other tumors were positive.

  Academic text (2007)

• However, the distribution of claudin-1 in low-grade meningiomas and in other dural-based spindle cell tumors has not been elucidated fully.

  Academic text (2007)

• The purpose of this study was to compare claudin-1 staining with other markers commonly used to differentiate meningiomas from histologic mimics.

  Academic text (2007)

• Of the atypical meningiomas, 12 (60%) of 20 were positive for claudin-1, with 4 cases each showing 3+, 2+, and 1+ staining (8 with moderate and 4 with weak staining).

  Academic text (2007)

• This study aimed at determining whether immunohistochemical reactivity for claudin-1 could help distinguish meningiomas from histologic mimics, compared with commonly used markers.

  Academic text (2007)

• Of note, both the meningothelial meningioma and the atypical meningiomas that failed to stain for EMA were positive for claudin-1 (3+ and 2+, respectively).
