Abstract:
Objective To elucidate the significance of expressive change in tissues of breast carcinomas.Methods Expression of PTEN protein was detected by immunohistochemistry (SP) in breast carcinomas?atypical intraductal hyperplasia?normal breast tissue. Results The positive rate and expressive intensity of PTEN protein in breast carcinoma were lower and weaker than those in atypical intraductal hyperplasia and normal breast. The intensity of PTEN protein expression was associated with differentiation degree of breast carcinoma, the poorer differentiation of breast carcinoma , the weaker expression of PTEN protein. Comparing with breast carcinoma, the PTEN expression level of atypical intraductal hyperplasia was higher , but It was lower than normal breast tissue. it is helpful for us to assess the carcinogenesis probability of atypical intraductal hyperplasia by detecting the PTEN.
