PRAME (preferentially expressed antigen in melanoma) is overexpressed in malignant cells, including primary and metastatic melanomas, acute and chronic leukaemias, Hodgkin’s lymphoma, breast cancer and head and neck squamous cell carcinomas. In AML (acute myeloid leukemia), high levels of PRAME are associated with lower relapse rate and high chances of disease-free survival. PRAME also plays a role in the retinol pathway. It modulates the metabolism of all-trans retinol (vitamin A) and its active metabolites, referred to as retinoids. It is a repressor of retinoic acid receptor signaling. Studies suggest that PRAME expression may be valuable for margin assessment of a known PRAME-positive melanoma, but its expression in nevi, solar lentigines, and benign nonlesional skin can represent a challenge.

CD205/LY75/gp200 [EP176]
CD205, also named DEC-205, belongs to the macrophage mannose receptor family of C-type lectin endocytic receptors. CD205 is predominantly expressed by the thymic cortical epithelium and by dendritic cells (DC), but can also be detected at low levels in T and B lymphocytes and several other epithelial cell types. CD205 is a novel thymic epithelial marker that is important for the positive selection process of thymocytes. It is a sensitive and specific marker for thymoma, while the sensitivity to thymic carcinoma is lower than CD5 and CD117.
