Dataset on mucin 1 and 4 proteins and SialyT and T antigens staining patterns in cervical cancer primary tumors and metastatic lymph nodes.

ABSTRACT: The objective was to find an association between abnormal glycosylation, represented by Tn and STn antigens on mucin (MUC) proteins, in primary tumor specimens with lymph node metastasis or recurrence of cervical cancer patients. Prospectively collected specimens were obtained from the NRG Oncology/GOG clinical trial GOG 0221 patients with previously untreated stage IB-IVA primary cervical cancer, who underwent surgical resection and removal of associated para-aortic and pelvic lymph nodes. Immunohistochemical staining for mucin 1 and 4 (MUC1 and MUC4) proteins and surface glycoproteins Tn and Sialyl Tn were performed on sections cut from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded specimen blocks. Loss vs no loss, of immunohistochemical stain upon neuraminidase treatment was used to verify STn vs T
