Basic information

Biomarker: IMP3

Histology type: endometrial serous carcinomas

Cohort characteristics

Country: Japan

Region: Suzuka

Followed up time :

Subgroup 1 name : positive in EC

Subgroup 1 number: 41

Subgroup 2 name: positive in control

Subgroup 2 number: 0

Total number Group I Group I number Group II Group II number Group III Group III number Group IV Group IV number
333 EAC 97 serous carcinoma (ESC) 35 benign endometrial samples 201

Sample information

Conclusion: IMP3 is a helpful immunomarker to distinguish ESC from EAC and SPSC in endometrial cytology.(endometrioid adenocarcinoma (EAC), serous carcinoma (ESC) and surface papillary syncytial change (SPSC))

Sample type : cytology

Sample method: immunohistochemistry

Expression pattern : expression(score ≥3)

Expression elevation: The staining intensity was classified as follows: absent=0, weak=1+, moderate=2+ and strong=3+ reaction and the frequency of positive staining cells was classified as 0%=0, 1-5%=1, 6-50%= 2 and >50% stained/% cells=3. For statistical analysis, a quantitative scoring method (percentage × intensity) was used, and it ranged from 0 to 9, as previously described. Any score ≧3 was considered to be positive.
