MUC2 and gastric carcinoma: The phenotypic marker expression of the tumour was determined by examining the expression of human gastric mucin (HGM), MUC6, MUC2 and CD10 in 213 advanced gastric carcinomas in 213 patients who had undergone a curative resection (97 died from recurrent gastric carcinoma and 116 were alive without recurrence at the end of the follow-up period).
