MR molecular imaging is an exciting new frontier in the biomedical applications of MR. One of the clinically relevant targets is the tyrosine kinase Her-2/neu receptor, which has a significant role in staging and treating breast cancer. In this study Her-2/neu receptors were imaged in a panel of bre

A PCR assay using capillary electrophoresis was designed for the detection of c-erbB-2 gene amplification in alcoholformalin-acetic acid (AFA)-fixed, paraffin-embedded biopsies from 81 consecutive breast tumors. c-erbB-2 expression was analyzed in the same samples using immuno-histochemistry (IHC).
The total cellular p185 HER-2/neu protein (p185) content was measured by ELISA in 346 invasive primary breast cancers, and the results were compared with those of estrogen (ER) and progesterone (PR) receptors, pS2 and Cathepsin D (Cat D) content. At a cut-off level of 260 fmol/mg protein, 53 of the
## Abstract Accurate assessment of estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and Her2 status of breast carcinomas is critical for predicting response to systemic therapies. Recently, developed rabbit monoclonal antibodies (RMab) are reported to have higher sensitivity than murine monoclon
