The Immunohistochemistry TTF-1 (Thyroid Transcription Factor-1) Test is a specialized diagnostic procedure available at DNA Labs UAE, priced at 500 AED. This test is a crucial tool in the field of pathology, specifically designed to detect the presence of TTF-1 protein in tissue samples. TTF-1 is a nuclear protein that plays a significant role in the development and function of the thyroid gland, as well as in lung and certain brain tissues. Its expression is often used as a biomarker to help identify and differentiate between various types of cancers, particularly lung cancer and thyroid carcinoma.

By utilizing antibodies that specifically bind to TTF-1, the test can indicate whether cancer cells originated from or are related to thyroid or lung tissue. This is particularly useful in cases where the primary source of a metastatic tumor is unknown. The accurate identification of the tumor origin can significantly influence treatment decisions and patient prognosis.

The process involves taking a tissue sample, usually through a biopsy, and then applying a specific antibody that reacts with the TTF-1 protein. If the protein is present, it will be highlighted under a microscope by a staining method, providing visual evidence of TTF-1 expression.

Conducted in the state-of-the-art facilities of DNA Labs UAE, the TTF-1 test is an essential component of the diagnostic process for patients with suspected or confirmed cases of lung or thyroid cancers, offering insights that guide the therapeutic approach and management of the disease.

Test Details

The TTF-1 (Thyroid Transcription Factor-1) test is an immunohistochemistry (IHC) test used to detect the presence of TTF-1 protein in cells. TTF-1 is a transcription factor that is primarily expressed in the thyroid gland, lung, and certain parts of the brain.

The test is commonly used in pathology to help differentiate between different types of tumors, particularly lung tumors. TTF-1 is highly expressed in lung adenocarcinomas, but not in other types of lung cancer such as squamous cell carcinoma. Therefore, a positive TTF-1 test result can be useful in confirming a diagnosis of lung adenocarcinoma.

In addition to lung cancer, the TTF-1 test can also be used in the diagnosis of thyroid tumors and certain types of brain tumors. It is typically performed on tissue samples obtained through biopsy or surgical resection.

The TTF-1 test is performed using an immunohistochemical staining technique. Tissue sections are treated with antibodies that specifically bind to TTF-1 protein. If TTF-1 is present in the tissue, the antibodies will bind to it and produce a visible staining reaction. The stained tissue sections are then examined under a microscope to determine the presence and pattern of TTF-1 expression.

Overall, the TTF-1 immunohistochemistry test is a valuable tool in the diagnosis and classification of certain types of tumors, particularly lung adenocarcinoma. It helps pathologists differentiate between different tumor types and provides important information for treatment planning and prognosis.
