## Abstract Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is overexpressed in a number of tumors, including breast cancer. Another marker of breast cancer tumorigenesis is the tumor suppressor gene __p53__ that is frequently mutated in breast cancer. In the present study, our aim was to find a correlation between FA

The prognostic significance of p53 gene abnormalities was investigated in 9 I9 primary breast-cancer patients. p53 expression and tumour-cell proliferation fraction determined by MIB-I count, p53 exon 5 and 6 mutations and HER-Z/neu oncogene amplification were detected by immunohistochemistry, PCR-S
Background and Objectives: We investigated whether expression levels of c-erbB-2 and p53 proteins in breast cancer tissues differ in primary and metastatic lesions. Methods: Immunohistochemical staining or sandwich enzyme immunoassay was used to determine expression levels of c-erbB-2 and p53 protei
Analysis of five-year disease-free survival rates in 608 women with operable breast cancer revealed that the reproductive history is a significant prognostic determinant. Overall parous women had a significantly higher cumulative five-year disease-free survival rate (a%), compared to the nulliparous
## Abstract The purpose of this work was to determine if the immunohistochemical p53 (+) Bclβ2 (β) phenotype predicts survival in breast cancer patients. Tissue from 819 cases of resected primary breast cancer, presented between 1986 and 1998, were assembled in tissue microarray format. Clinicopath
