Correlation of AR, EGFR, and HER2 Expression Levels in Prostate Cancer: Immunohistochemical Analysis and Chromogenic In Situ Hybridization
PURPOSE The androgen receptor (AR) plays a central role in prostate cancer. Evidence from several groups indicates that epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) may enhance AR activity in prostate cancer cell lines. This study was designed to investigate the protein expression of AR, EGFR, and HER2 and to determine whether the EGFR and HER2 gen...
متن کاملPredicting gefitinib responsiveness in lung cancer by fluorescence in situ hybridization/chromogenic in situ hybridization analysis of EGFR and HER2 in biopsy and cytology specimens.
In non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutational analysis is an excellent predictor of responsiveness to treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors, such as gefitinib. In up to 80% of NSCLCs, cytologic samples or endoscopic biopsies are the only specimens available for molecular analysis, but PCR amplification of DNA from small fixed and paraffin-embedded...
متن کاملChromogenic in situ Hybridization Compared with Real Time Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction to Evaluate HER2/neu Status in Breast Cancer
Background and objective: The assessment of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) status has become of great importance in the diagnosis of breast cancer. The aim of this study was to investigate the diagnostic value of quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR) and Chromogenic In Situ Hybridization (CISH) to assess HER2 status of biopsy specimens. <...
