Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the clinical significance of E-Cadherin (E-CD) expression in breast carcinoma.Methods:The expression of E-CD gene in human breast carcinomas was studied by immunohistochemistry(SABC) in 92 patients and the relationship between the expression and the clinical pathologic parameters was observed.Results:The positive rate of E-CD expression was 48.9%(45/92).The group with negative E-CD expression has higher incidence of distant metastasis (34%,16/47)than the positive one (15.6%,7/45)(P
