Abstract:
Purpose:To study the relationship between the expression of the BRCA 1 protein and clinico pathological characteristics of breast cancer,and to clarify the correlation of the expression of the BRCA 1 protein with expression of p53 and c erbB 2 . Methods:The expressions of BRCA 1 , p53 and c erbB 2 of breast cancer tissues taken from 60 breast cancer patients as well as 10 benign breast disease patients were examined using immunohistochemical LDP method. All tissues were taken from formalin fixed and paraffin embedded breast tumor specimens. We analyzed the correlation of the results with other parameters which included age of onset, family history, histological grade, status of estrogen receptor and progesterone receptor, axillary nodal status and so on. Results:The expression of BRCA 1 was 61.66% (37/60) in breast cancer patients and 0 (0/10) in benign diseases patients. The protein expressed was mainly located in the cytoplasm. The correlation between age of onset and the expression of BRCA 1 was significant (r=-0.295, P
