It is well established that the activation of proto-oncogenes could trigger uncontrolled cell growth and cancer development. Although this correlation has already been evidenced in several human tumors, no conclusive studies have related oncogene activation with the development of prostatic neoplasi

Sections of formalin-fixed, paraffin-blocked tissue from 116 primary transitional cell carcinomas were stained immunohistochemically using a polyclonal antibody against the c-erbB-2 oncoprotein. Positive staining of cell membranes, known to correlate with gene amplification, was seen in 22 (19%) of
Ampliยฎcation of the c-erbB2 oncogene and numerical aberrations of chromosome 17 occur in human breast carcinomas. Apocrine adenosis (AA) of the breast has been shown occasionally to have c-erbB2 overexpression and a possible premalignant potential, but little is known about cellular level genetic al
