Pathology Outlines - Diffuse midline glioma, H3 K27 altered
2022年4月14日 · H3K27me3: H3 K27-altered tumors show loss of H3K27me3 staining, a finding that by itself is not specific, however, may be helpful in identifying diffuse midline gliomas with H3 p.K28I (K27I) mutation or EZHIP overexpression, which are negative for H3K27M IHC but show loss of nuclear H3K27me3 expression Reference: Brain Pathol 2016;26:569

Pathology Outlines - Ependymoma overview
2024年4月4日 · H3K27me3. The H3K27 trimethylation status distinguishes PFA from PFB. PFA has loss of the H3K27 trimethylation and therefore loss of nuclear staining on H3K27me3 staining, while PFB group ependymoma tumor cells have retained nuclear expression. Answers A, C, D and E are incorrect because they do not distinguish H3K27 trimethylation status ...
