Estrogen (ER) and progesterone (PgR) receptors were assayed by histochemistry in primary, recurrent, and metastatic breast cancer. Ligand-conjugates composed of 17P-estradiol and 1 lcu-hydroxyprogesterone covalently linked to bovine serum albumin and labelled with fluorescein isothiocyanate were emp
## Abstract We have studied the estradiol sensitivity of primary human breast carcinomas in organ culture in a prospective pilot series of 109 tumors. The effect on plasminogen activator (PA) production was used as the endβpoint of estrogen action. We found that: (i) All tumors secreted detectable
Estrogen receptor protein (ERP) content and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) positivity were analysed in 50 cases of primary breast carcinoma. Relationship of pathological features known to be of prognostic significance and combined CEA and ERP status were examined. It was found that CEA + ERPtumours
