They are known to be involved in sensing changes of extracellular proton concentrations in the acidic microenvironment of tumors, which leads to altered cell proliferation, migration, metastasis, immune cell function and inflammation. However, little is known about the expression of pH\u2010GPCRs in the skin and especially skin cancers.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Aim<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      We studied the expression of pH\u2010GPCRs in selected skin cancers, that is Merkel cell carcinoma (\n                      <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MCC<\/jats:styled-content>\n                      ), dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (\n                      <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">DFSP<\/jats:styled-content>\n                      ), atypical fibroxanthoma (\n                      <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">AFX<\/jats:styled-content>\n                      ) and pleomorphic dermal sarcoma (\n                      <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">PDS<\/jats:styled-content>\n                      ).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      We did immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence to analyse the expression of GPR4, TDAG8, OGR1 and G2A using paraffin\u2010embedded tissue samples (n\u00a0=\u00a04, exceptions:\n                      <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">PDS<\/jats:styled-content>\n                      GPR4\/GPR65 n\u00a0=\u00a05,\n                      <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">AFX<\/jats:styled-content>\n                      GPR132 n\u00a0=\u00a03) from patients suffering from\n                      <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MCC<\/jats:styled-content>\n                      ,\n                      <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">DFSP<\/jats:styled-content>\n                      ,\n                      <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">AFX<\/jats:styled-content>\n                      and\n                      <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">PDS<\/jats:styled-content>\n                      .\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      (a) GPR4 was expressed on all\n                      <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">AFX<\/jats:styled-content>\n                      and\n                      <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">PDS<\/jats:styled-content>\n                      specimens.
