Description

General description

The claudin-family proteins are a group of tight-junction membranous proteins responsible for paracellular molecular flow between adjacent cells of the epithelium.¹ In normal kidney, claudin-4 plays a key role in paracellular ion reabsorption.² Claudin-4 is expressed in most epithelial cells yet is absent in mesothelial cells, making it of great use in characterizing epithelial malignincies.³ Immunohistochemical identification of this antigen may help identify poorly differentiated lung adenocarcinoma from lesions of mesothelial origin.⁴ Likewise, identification of claudin-4 expression by IHC may be useful in characterizing breast and endometrial lesions.^5,6
