Epithelial Tumors
GATA3 expression in malignant cutaneous epithelial neoplasms. Positive staining for GATA3 is demonstrated in these examples of basal cell carcinoma (×200), apocrine carcinoma (×200), and mucinous carcinoma (×200), whereas the adenoid cystic carcinoma (×200) is negative for GATA3. GATA3 Expression in Normal Skin and in Benign and Malignant Epidermal and Cutaneous Adnexal Neoplasms.
