lmmunostaining for proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), a marker of cell proliferation, is being increasingly used to study the proliferative activity of tumors, and the PCNA labeling index has been correlated with the prognosis of several malignant neoplasms. Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded
TAAs of the MAGE family are mostly studied as targets of specific immune responses. Their potential relevance as tumor markers has also been underlined. We used a MAb, 57B, recognizing MAGE-A4 protein in paraffin-embedded sections, to evaluate its expression in bladder cancers by employing TMA inclu
## Abstract Two hundred and twelve archival bladderβcancer biopsy specimens were analyzed immunohistochemically to detect overβexpression of p53 protein. The results of immunohistochemical analysis were correlated to established histological and quantitative prognostic factors and survival of patie
