Preferred Label : ENAH Protein Isoform Expression Assay;
NCIt synonyms : Mena Protein Isoform Expression Assay; Protein Enabled Homolog Isoform Expression Assay;
NCIt definition : A proprietary immunofluorescent assay that quantifies the relative expression levels
of all isoforms of the actin regulatory protein, protein enabled homolog (Mena or
ENAH), including Mena(INV) and Mena11a. Mena(INV) expression is elevated and Mena11a
expression is diminished or absent in invasive tumor cells, which may have increased
metastatic potential. Therefore, this assay may be able to predict a patient's risk
for tumor metastasis.;
