Abstract
Calcyclin is the product of a gene that is regulated in dependence of the cell cycle in fibroblasts in vitro. It has recently been proven to be a sialic acid-binding protein in vitro and in the case of mammalian tissues to bind specifically to annexin II, annexin VI, annexin XI, and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner. Since calcyclin can be labelled without impairment of its binding activity, it can be employed as a histochemical tool to localize its accessible ligands. Concomitantly, immunohistochemical localization of calcyclin with a specific antibody is warranted. By using histochemical and immunohistochemical techniques, the expression of calcyclin and its accessible binding sites are demonstrated in serial sections of normal skin and benign, pre-cancerous and malignant tumors of the skin, namely in verruca vulgaris, papillary hidradenoma, syringoma, keratoacanthoma, Bowen's disease, squamous cell carcinoma, melanocytic naevi, primary and metastatic malignant melanoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) of the skin. Cytoplasmic and nuclear expression of calcyclin and its ligands is unexceptionally found in normal skin, epithelial tumors and benign melanocytic tumors. Presence of calcyclin and ...Continue Reading
