The histochemical reactions of acid phosphatase were studied in tissues deriving from normal breasts, from mammary dysplasia, and from breast carcinoma. Acid phosphatase was demonstrated in all cases with more intense activity in breast carcinoma where activity was particularly accentuated in the
CEA as well as alkaline and acid phosphatase were measured in patients with fibrocystic breast disease. The values recorded from the punctured fluids were compared to those in peripheral blood. CEA concentrations in cyst fluid were elevated in patients with proliferative breast disease, whereas no
Prostatic Acid Phosphatase (PAP) is mostly found in the epithelial cells and secretions of the prostate gland. It has also been found to be present in several tissues and biological fluid. Gross cystic breast disease is the commonest benign breast condition and several studies have shown that women
One hundred seventy two consecutive cases of female breast pathology have been intraoperatively processed by frozen sections (FS) in combination with aspecific alkaline phosphatase (AAF) histochemical evaluation. The corresponding histology on permanent embedded tissues (ET) was compared with both
Breast cancer is one of the most common malignancies of women. Assessing the biological parameters of malignant tumors may facilitate predictions of clinical outcome. The expression of the three catalytic subunits of protein phosphatase (PP) type 1, PP1 alpha, PP1 gamma 1 and PP1 delta, as well as
Myoepithelial cells (MC) were identified and types and forms of their hyperplasia in dysplasias and bening mammary gland tumors in dog and man were studied by indirect Coons' method using highly purified monospecific antiserum to smooth muscle myosin and by performing alkaline phosphatase test.
From preclimacteric women (n = 10, 45-50 years of age) with gross cystic breast disease, levels of beta-endorphin, estradiol, progesterone, luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, thyroid-stimulating hormone, cortisol and prolactin were assayed radiochemically in the breast cyst fluid and
Cowden syndrome (CS) is a phosphatase and tensin homolog gene (PTEN)-associated condition characterized by multiple mucocutaneous hamartomas and an increased risk of malignancies. We reported an isolated case and another of several individuals in one family affected by CS. The isolated case showed
