Flow cytometric analysis of estrogen (ER) and progesterone (PgR) receptor expression in archival human breast tumors is relatively difficult. We have used enzyme digestion and microwave antigen retrieval procedures for multiparametric flow cytometric analysis of ER and PgR expression and DNA content

Background: Cellular expression of receptors for the hormones estrogen and progesterone in human mammary tumors is of diagnostic and prognostic value. Ligand binding assays have been replaced by immunohistochemical analysis of receptor expression. However, both of these techniques are slow, and in t
An adaptation of a previously reported flow cytometric technique is described. This technique was applied to study the DNA distribution of mouse granulocyte-macrophage colony forming cells (GM-CFc) grown in a methyl cellulose culture system. This method involved the collection of cell clusters and c
Routine flow cytometric DNA analysis was compared in two laboratories by using matched fresh-frozen breast cancer and soft tissue sarcoma biopsy specimens. Laboratory I applied the VindelΓΆv preparation method and an exponential background subtraction algorithm in the cell cycle calculation. Laborato
