Disease: Mesothelioma
Mesothelioma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Immunocytochemical studies on PF cell blocks allow: (a) to distinguish mesothelioma from reactive mesothelial proliferations (e.g. loss of BAP1 nuclear expression, complemented by the demonstration of p16 deletion using fluorescence in situ hybridization, indicate mesothelioma); (b) to separate mesothelioma from adenocarcinoma (e.g. calretinin, CK 5/6, WT-1 and D2-40 are markers of mesothelioma, whereas CEA, EPCAM, TTF-1, napsin A, and claudin 4 are markers of carcinoma); and (c) to reveal tumor origin in pleural metastases of an unknown primary site (e.g. 30354850 2019

Disease: Mesothelioma
Mesothelioma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Calretinin (CR) is used as a positive marker for human malignant mesothelioma (MM) and is essential for mesothelioma cell growth/survival. 30555628 2018
CUI: C0025500
Disease: Mesothelioma
Mesothelioma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE As calretinin and D2-40, the recognized positive markers of mesothelioma, are expressed in lung adenocarcinoma to some extent, novel markers with high specificity are desirable. 29327712 2018

Disease: Mesothelioma
Mesothelioma
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE The specificity of the effect was confirmed by stable enhanced green fluorescent protein-CR expression in mesothelioma cell lines and subsequent downregulation. 23595591 2013
CUI: C0025500
Disease: Mesothelioma
Mesothelioma
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE (CK7 is common to all epithelial tumours, CEA can be expressed in clear cell carcinoma, WT1 is normally expressed in serous carcinoma, calretinin is expressed in mesothelioma and CK20 in colon carcinoma). 23265355 2013

Disease: Mesothelioma
Mesothelioma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE There was positivity for vimentin, EMA, and cytokeratin 5/6 while WT1, calretinin, and CEA were negative; however, D2-40 showed diffuse membranous positivity in the epithelial areas and cytoplasmic positivity in the spindle areas confirming a mesothelioma. 21574263 2012
