UHRF1 Immunohistochemical Staining Separates Benign Reactive Spindle Cell Mesothelial Proliferations From Sarcomatoid Mesotheliomas

The separation of benign from malignant mesothelial proliferations is often a difficult pathologic problem. UHRF1 (ubiquitin-like with plant homeodomain and ring finger domains-1) is a regulator of DNA methylation and an epigenetic driver of various human cancers. It has recently been reported that UHRF1 is overexpressed in mesotheliomas. We asked whether UHRF1 immunohistochemistry could be used to separate benign from malignant mesothelial...
