Comments:
CDX2 is a transcription factor that plays a vital role in the proliferation and differentiation of intestinal epithelial cells. It is expressed by the vast majority of colorectal carcinomas but may also be seen in lung, ovarian, bladder, and pancreatobiliary carcinomas. In this image, the normal colonic mucosa on the top shows stronger staining with CDX2 as compared to the moderately-differentiated adenocarcinoma below.
