Colon Ca stained with Anti-Annexin VII
Annexin VII, also known as , is a calcium/phospholipid-binding protein belongs to the annexin superfamily. Annexin VII is broadly expressed in normal and tumor cells. Dysregulation of Annexin VII has been linked to progression of several types of tumors. The role of Annexin VII expression in tumor progression is tumor-type-specific. It acts as a tumor suppressor in glioblastoma, melanoma and prostate carcinoma, whereas high expression of Annexin VII may be associated with poor prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma and gastric carcinoma.
