Conclusion: Mutant p53, high Pirh2, and L1CAM-positive EC are highly aggressive tumors with a shortened survival rate, dismal outcome, and high risk of relapse after the standard protocol of therapy.

Sample type : tissue

Sample method: immunohistochemistry (IHC) and polymerase chain reaction

Expression pattern : upregulated

Funtion Uniprot: Neural cell adhesion molecule involved in the dynamics of cell adhesion and in the generation of transmembrane signals at tyrosine kinase receptors. During brain development, critical in multiple processes, including neuronal migration, axonal growth and fasciculation, and synaptogenesis. In the mature brain, plays a role in the dynamics of neuronal structure and function, including synaptic plasticity.

Phenotype ID: 307000;303350;304100;

Disease: Hydrocephalus due to stenosis of the aqueduct of Sylvius (HSAS);MASA syndrome (MASA);Defects in L1CAM may contribute to Hirschsprung disease by modifying the effects of Hirschsprung disease-associated genes to cause intestinal aganglionosis; Defects in L1CAM are associated with a wide phenotypic spectrum which varies from severe hydrocephalus and prenatal death (HSAS) to a milder phenotype (MASA). These variations may even occur within the same family. Due to the overlap of phenotypes between HSAS and MASA, many authors use the general concept of L1 syndrome which covers both ends of the spectrum;
