چکیده

MLH1 immunoreactivity in prostatic adenocarcinoma. The increased MLH1 expression in the precursor lesion HGPIN suggests a role of MLH1 in prostatic carcinogenesis. However, its expression may not be related to the aggressiveness of prostatic cancer, because the intensity of immunoreactivity is similar in both intermediate and high-grade prostatic adenocarcinoma. Lastly, we have demonstrated the feasibility of creating new cocktails containing antibodies specific for malignant (MLH1, AMACR) and benign (34bE12, p63) prostatic epithelia.
