General description

Arginase is a key metalloenzyme of the urea cycle responsible for the hydrolysis of L-arginine to L-ornithine and urea. Two main isoforms exist, arginase-1 and arginase-2, encoded by different genes and with different tissue distributions. The arginase-1 isoform is a cytosolic protein that is produced by normal liver tissue and is typically expressed in hepatocellular carcinoma. Arginase-1 (SP156) is used as an immunohistochemical marker to aid in the identification of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Cancer, 93(4), 288-291 (2001-08-17)
Diagnosing liver tumors by fine-needle aspiration biopsy is safe and accurate. However, there are cases that prove diagnostically difficult. Traditionally, immunostains for alpha-fetoprotein and polyclonal carcinoembryonic antigen have been used to distinguish adenocarcinomas from hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs). In poorly differentiated

Fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) is frequently used to diagnose mass lesions in the liver. Differentiating metastatic adenocarcinoma from primary hepatocellular carcinoma can be difficult. Despite a number of morphologic criteria, there remain occasional cases in which the cytologic features fail

Cancer, 111(4), 259-268 (2007-06-15)
Difficulties with cytologic diagnoses on fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) of the liver can be overcome by the application of immunocytochemical panels applied on smears. The aim of the current study was to analyze the performance of a panel of monoclonal

The epidemiology of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is characterized by marked differences between genders, ethnic groups, and geographic regions. These variations are explained by the nature, frequency, and time of acquisition of the major risk factors for cirrhosis--namely hepatitis B virus
