CDX2<br />

CDX2 is a caudal-type homeobox, intestine-specific transcription factor that<br />

is expressed early in intestinal development and may be involved in the<br />

regulation of proliferation and differentiation of intestinal epithelial cells.<br />

CDX2, as well as CDX1, is of particular interest as the intestine is the only<br />

organ that contains detectable levels of either gene product. This pattern of<br />

restricted expression is unusual for homeobox genes. Phosphorylation of<br />

the CDX2 activation domain can modulate its function and different spatial<br />

expression patterns in the intestinal epithelium. CDX2 is primarily expressed<br />

on the surface of the villus and in the crypts. In contrast to CDX1, intense<br />

CDX2 expression is reported to occur in all but the distal portions of the<br />

developing intestine. The loss of CDX2 has been reported to contribute<br />

towards the progression of some sporadic colorectal cancers. It has been<br />

reported that CDX2 may also be associated with carcinogenesis of the<br />

stomach as expression of CDX2 mRNA progressively decreases with the<br />

transition from well differentiated to poorly differentiated gastric cancer cell<br />

lines.<br />

Cellular Apoptosis Susceptibility Protein<br />

Clone 30F12<br />

1 mL lyophilized NCL-CAS F P (HIER) W<br />

Reference Range<br />

Cellular apoptosis susceptibility protein, the product of the CAS gene, is<br />

associated with microtubules and the mitotic spindle. CAS is the human<br />

homolog of the yeast chromosome-segregation gene, CSE-1. The molecular<br />

mechanism or function by which CAS is associated with cell proliferation<br />

and apoptosis is not yet fully understood but it has been proposed that the<br />

protein may play a role in the development of some leukemias and<br />

lymphomas. Aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and Hodgkin's disease<br />

have been reported where up to 80 percent of the malignant cells express<br />

CAS protein. These include large cell anaplastic lymphomas of T and null<br />

cell phenotype and diffuse large B cell lymphomas. Low grade non-<br />

Hodgkin's lymphoma were reported where only 10 to 60 percent of all cells<br />

were positive. It was proposed that high expression of cytoplasmic CAS<br />

protein appeared to correlate with proliferation of normal and malignant<br />

lymphoid cells.<br />
