Histologic evaluation is hampered by intra\u2010 and interobserver variability. Various biomarkers have been investigated to improve the accuracy and reproducibility of diagnosis and grading, but interpretation can be challenging. ProEx<jats:sup>\u2122<\/jats:sup> C is an antibody cocktail for proteins upregulated in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia. This study investigated ProEx<jats:sup>\u2122<\/jats:sup> C's role alone and with p16 and Ki\u201067 in the diagnosis and grading of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">AIN<\/jats:styled-content>. Sixty\u2010seven anal tissue samples (22 <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">AIN<\/jats:styled-content> I, 25 <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">AIN II<\/jats:styled-content>\/<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">III<\/jats:styled-content>, and 20 non\u2010dysplastic) were stained for ProEx<jats:sup>\u2122<\/jats:sup> C, Ki\u201067, and p16. Staining patterns were recorded and correlated with morphologic diagnoses.

In combination with Ki\u201067, sensitivity was lower, but specificity for <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">AIN II<\/jats:styled-content>\/<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">III<\/jats:styled-content> rose to 83%. For differentiating non\u2010dysplasia from <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">AIN<\/jats:styled-content> I, negative ProEx<jats:sup>\u2122<\/jats:sup> C staining correlated with non\u2010dysplasia (p &lt; 0.0001) and had the highest sensitivity (90%).
