Human breast carcinomas (n = 232) were evaluated for estrogen and progesterone receptors (ER, PR) by immunohistochemical study and by cytosol steroid-binding assay (n = 185). The staining was scored (histoscore) by estimates of relative nuclear staining intensity and the percentage of positively sta

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
