Background. The estrogen-inducible pS2 gene, originally isolated from a breast cancer cell line, is correlated with hormone-dependent female breast tumors and its expression is associated with longer overall and diseasefree survival. Methods. The authors have investigated 38 samples of carcinomas o
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women worldwide. The growth of breast cancer cells is either hormone-dependent or hormone-independent. Both types are represented in vitro by the estrogen-receptor positive (ER+) MCF-7 and the estrogen-receptor negative (ER-) MDA-MB-231 cell lines, respecti
