Abstract:
Objectives:To study the relationship between the expression of PS2 protein and estrogen receptor(ER) and progesterone receptor(PR) ,c-erbB2 status and prognosis in breast cancer.Methods:PS2 protein expressions in 52 cases of breast cancer were detected by immunohistochemical method.Results:The positive rate of PS2 protein was 59.6 %(31/52) in 52 patients.There was significant correlation between PS2 protein and menopausal status,ER status,PR status respectively.Tumor size,clinical stage and lymph node status were not significantly related with the expression of PS2 protein.Patients with PS2 protein positive expression had higher 5-year-survival rate than those with PS2 protein negative expression.Conclusion:PS2 protein appears to be an independent and valid prognostic factor of breast cancer,and detection of PS2 protein expression was useful for treatment of breast cancer.
