Abstract:
Objective To study the expression of fascin, an actin bundling protein associated with cell motility, and the relationship with ER negative breast carcinoma.Methods Comparasion of the expression of fascin, estrogen receptor (ER) and proliferative cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) determined by immunohistological method was made on 84 specimens of primary breast carcinomas. Results The diffuse staining of fascin in cancerous cell cytoplasm was noted. Only 3 of 53 breast carcinomas with ER positive showed fascin positive expression (5.67%); in contrast, 21 of 31 carcinomas with ER-negative showed positive expression(67.7 %) (P
