Synaptophysin is a synaptic vesicle glycoprotein used in synaptic transmission of neurons. Anti-Synaptophysin stains the gastrointestinal mucosa and lung neuroendocrine cells of the human adrenal medulla, carotid body, pancreas, pituitary, skin, and thyroid. Synaptophysin also stains neuroendocrine neoplasms. Use of Anti-Synaptophysin produces diffuse, finely granular, cytoplasmic staining. The presence of synaptophysin does not correlate with neuron-specific enolase or other neuroendocrine markers.
