Basic information

Biomarker: Jag1

Histology type: endometrial carcinoma

Cohort characteristics

Region: Thessaloniki

Total number Group I Group I number Group II Group II number Group III Group III number Group IV Group IV number
204 endometrial cancer 204

Sample information

Conclusion: Aberrant expression of key components of the Notch and Hedgehog signaling pathways, as well as MMRd may serve as independent prognostic factors for recurrence and survival in patients with endometrial cancer.

Sample type : tissue

Sample method: immunohistochemistry

Expression pattern : positive (range 3–12)

Expression elevation: Staining intensity for Notch2, Notch3 and Jag1 was scored into four grades (0, 1+, 2+ and 3+), while the percentage of positive cells was also scored into four categories (0 for 0%, 1 for 1–33%, 2 for >33–66% and 3 for >66–100%). The product of intensity and percentage categories (range 0–9) was finally classified as negative (0–4) and positive (5–9) . Similarly, for Gli, Patched-1, Shh and Smo, intensity was scored into four grades (0, 1+, 2+ and 3+), while the percentage of positive cells was scored into five categories (0 for <5%, 1 for 5–25%, 2 for >25–50%, 3 for >50–75% and 4 for >75%). The product of the intensity and percentage categories (range 0–12) was used as the final score and classified as negative (0–2) and positive (3–12).
