Expression of MUC1, MUC2, MUC5AC, and MUC6 in atypical adenomatous hyperplasia, bronchioloalveolar carcinoma, adenocarcinoma with mixed subtypes, and mucinous bronchioloalveolar carcinoma of the lung.

Abstract excerpt

We examined the expression of MUC1, MUC2, MUC5AC, and MUC6 by immunohistochemical staining in atypical adenomatous hyperplasia (AAH), bronchioloalveolar carcinoma (BAC), and adenocarcinoma with mixed subtypes (MX) to study the association between the biologic features of adenocarcinoma of the lung and mucin expression. MUC1 expression was decreased significantly in the progression from AAH through BAC to MX,...
