Immunohistochemical Expression and Significance of Preferentially Expressed Antigen in Melanoma (PRAME) in Gynecological Tumors: A Single-institution Retrospective Analysis
PRAME over-expression in gynecological tumors supports the notion that this marker should not be regarded as specific to MM alone. EC exhibited higher PRAME expression than CC and OC, and low-grade EEC displayed higher PRAME immunoreactivity than other EC types. Our findings suggest that PRAME immunostaining can be useful to distinguish EEC from ovarian endometrioid carcinoma and endocervical adenocarcinoma. PRAME over-expression can also help differentiate non-aggressive EC from aggressive EC.
