Lung tumors neuroendocrine markers

Matsuki and colleagues evaluated histidine decarboxylase, an enzyme of the amine precursor uptake and decarboxylation system known to be distributed in mast cells and enterochromaffin-like cells, with the hypothesis that this enzyme was a marker for neuroendocrine differentiation. The authors found that the anti-histidine decarboxylase antibody stained most small cell lung cancers (18 of 23 sensitivity 0.78) and was rarely reactive with non-neuroendocrine lung tumors... [Pg.378]

Small cell carcinoma of the lung contains abundant CgA mRNA but very little stored chromogranin A protein whereas Ewing s sarcoma expresses Sgll but no CgA and NSE can be expressed other non-neuroendocrine cells. This difference in the expression pattern of these neuroendocrine markers makes it important to use a primer panel (multiplex PCR) complementary to different neuroendocrine markers, this approach helps to minimize false-negative results and can be successfully used for the detection and monitoring of micrometastases and circulating cells of different neuroendocrine tumors. [Pg.219]
