چکیده
Clinical use of tissue microarrays for immunohistochemical analysis of breast biomarkers, namely estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and HER2, was instituted in our laboratory in 2008. The method has proved reliable and cost-effective. We report the results of the initial year of testing with this method.

Problems (and solutions) in the study of male breast cancer
Owing to its rarity, large-scale retrospective studies in male breast cancer have suffered from the small numbers of cases available for study from any one center. Here we describe our experience in establishing a large collection of male breast cancers in tissue microarray format suitable for biomarker analysis by immunohistochemistry.
متن کاملEvaluating the clinical importance of long-non coding RNA MALAT1 expression in breast cancer
Background: Breast cancer is one of the major causes of illness and mortality among women. Long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) have important role in tumor development and progression. Metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1) is a lncRNA that deregulates in several cancers, however, its value in the diagnosis of breast cancer is unclear. This study was conducted to investigate...
