Expression of c-erbB-2 oncoprotein: a prognostic indicator in human breast cancer.
Sections of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue from 185 primary breast carcinomas were stained immunohistochemically using a polyclonal antibody against the c-erbB-2 oncoprotein. Positive staining, which is known to correlate with gene amplification, was associated with earlier relapse, shorter postrelapse survival, and shorter overall survival. Lymph node, epidermal growth factor recepto...
متن کاملPrognostic significance of c-erbB-2 and estrogen receptor status in human breast cancer.
Using the 21N polyclonal antibody, we immunohistochemically stained 314 primary breast carcinomas to identify those tumors overexpressing the c-erbB-2 oncoprotein and to ascertain the prognostic significance of this expression on disease-free and overall survival. Positive membrane staining was present in 52 (17%) of these carcinomas of which 7 (13%) were ductal carcinomas in situ. There was no...
متن کاملOverexpression of c-erbB-2 oncoprotein and associated pathobiological factors in invasive primary breast cancer.
Breast cancer tissues from 271 cases were analyzed immunologically for c-erbB-2 oncoprotein (HER-2/neu), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGF-R) and estrogen receptor (ER). Overexpression of both c-erbB-2 oncoprotein and EGF-R showed an inverse association with ER and a direct association with metastatic involvement of lymph node and high histological grade. The frequency of c-erbB-2 and EGF-R...
متن کاملEnzyme-linked immunosorbent assay of c-erbB-2 oncoprotein in breast cancer.
Amplification or increased expression of the c-erbB-2 gene has previously been reported to be a prognostic marker for breast cancer. Gene amplification is usually measured by Southern blotting, whereas increased protein expression is usually detected by immunocytochemistry. We measured c-erbB-2 protein with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). High concentrations of oncoprotein were fo...
متن کاملC-erbB2 oncoprotein: prognostic marker in breast cancer.
AIM The invasive mammary cancer is the most frequent malign tumor of a woman. Among the potential prognostic factors are included the biomarkers which measure or are associated with biological processes involved in the tumoral progression. We study the prognostic importance of the c-erbB2 oncoprotein in the invasive mammary cancer. MATERIAL AND METHODS We included in the study 56 female patie...
