Biomarker: cFLIP

Histology type: endometrioid endometrial carcinoma

Country: China

Region: Wuhan

Followed up time :

Conclusion: Overexpression of cFLIP is tumor specific, which may be a late event in the tumor development of endometrial adenocarcinoma.

Sample type : tissue

Sample method: immunohistochemistry

Expression pattern : Overexpression

Funtion Uniprot: Apoptosis regulator protein which may function as a crucial link between cell survival and cell death pathways in mammalian cells. Acts as an inhibitor of TNFRSF6 mediated apoptosis. A proteolytic fragment (p43) is likely retained in the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC) thereby blocking further recruitment and processing of caspase-8 at the complex. Full length and shorter isoforms have been shown either to induce apoptosis or to reduce TNFRSF-triggered apoptosis. Lacks enzymatic (caspase) activity.
