## Abstract Increasing evidence suggests that androgen independent prostate cancer (PC) maintains a functional androgen receptor (AR) pathway despite the low levels of circulating androgen following androgen withdrawal, the molecular mechanisms of which are not well defined yet. To address this que
In the present study, the expression of members of the AP-1 family of transcription factors in breast tumors (n β«Ψβ¬ 53) was investigated by Western blot with antibodies specific for each of the AP-1 family members (c-jun, junB, junD and c-fos, fosB, fra1 and fra2). The tumors were characterized with
## Abstract B7βH1, a coinhibitory molecule, plays a role in immune escape of tumors. We have shown previously the expression of this molecule in breast cancer patients and demonstrated its association with high histological grade, progesterone and estrogen receptor negative status, all of which are
