Prognostic value of the preserved expression of the E-cadherin and catenin families of adhesion molecules and of ?-catenin mutations in synovial sarcoma
1 Jan 2000
Abstract excerpt
This study addresses the immunohistochemical expression of the E-cadherin and catenin families and mutations of the beta-catenin gene detected by PCR-SSCP in synovial sarcoma. Immunohistochemical analysis was performed for 72 cases, with follow-up data available on 62. The prognostic value of the expression of these proteins was evaluated. Reduced immunoreactivity for E-cadherin and alpha-catenin was...
