## Background: Nipple aspirate fluid (naf) cytology is a simple noninvasive method to study cells exfoliated into the ductal system of the breast. in the current study, the significance of cytologic findings in naf was determined by correlating them with histopathologic findings from corresponding

Socioeconomic factors cannot entirely explain why black women have an earlier age of breast cancer onset and higher mortality rates, stage for stage, than whites. We and others have shown that prostate-specific antigen [PSA, also known as human kallikrein (hK) 3] is a marker of breast as well as pro
## Abstract Proteomic analysis of body fluids, including breast nipple aspirate fluid (NAF), holds promise to aid in early cancer detection. We conducted a prospective trial that collected NAF from women scheduled for diagnostic breast surgery to determine 1) the consistency of proteomic results, 2
## Abstract Human kallikreins (hK) 2, 3, 6 and 10 are expressed in breast and prostate tissue. hK2 and hK3 (prostate‐specific antigen, PSA) are used to screen for prostate cancer. hK6 and hK10 are downregulated in breast cancer compared to normal breast tissue. We demonstrated that levels of PSA in
## Abstract The relationship between presence of dysplastic epithelial cells in nipple aspirates of breast fluid and wet or dry cerumen phenotype was studied in 1,150 white and Asian American women. A statistically significant greater proportion of premenopausal white women of wet cerumen phenotype
