Normal urothelium, well to moderately differentiated cell lines and surgical samples expressed E-cadherin and large CD44 isoforms containing exon v6, which was pivotal in metastasis of rat pancreatic cell line model. Poorly differentiated cell lines and surgical samples, were E-cadherin-negative and expressed primarily standard form CD44, which did not contain exon v6. We concluded that CD44v6 isoforms and E-cadherin were both down-regulated during the carcinogenesis of urothelium. The large exon v6 containing CD44 isoforms were readily detected in normal urothelium, therefore, were not likely linked to cancer metastasis. E-cadherin and CD44v6 may be used as differentiation markers for human urothelial tumors. Immunohistochemical study solely with antibody against epitopes encoded by exon v6 alone is not informative enough as other alternatively spliced exons may change the function of CD44v6 isoforms. ? 1995. |
