Is iGFBP-1 expressed specifically in ovarian clear cell adenocarcinoma?
The expression of IGFBP-1 in CCA is more specific than that of HNF-1β. IGFBP-1 shows expression by decidual endometrium and Arias-Stella glands, and CCA also exhibits characteristic expression. These results indicate that IGFBP-1 is a immunohistochemical marker for CCA.
Within the current sample, general psychiatric labels did not appear to distinguish themselves from each other on measures of attitude and social distance but did so when compared to a relatively more specific term. Future research should examine the underlying mechanism driving this finding, with the ultimate goal of reducing the stigma faced by those with mental disorders.
