Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Are glut-1 intensity and pattern of expression in thymic epithelial tumors predictive of WHO subtypes?
Answer: Glut-1 expression globally depended on histological subtypes and the staining patterns (diffuse or zonal) were different between thymic carcinomas and type B3 thymomas. A comparative study of Glut-1 expression in atypical versus conventional type A thymomas appears warranted. Otherwise, restriction to epithelial cells makes likely a correlation with clinical assessment of glucose uptake in lymphocyte-poor tumors.
Output (English): yes
