lmmunostaining for proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), a marker of cell proliferation, is being increasingly used to study the proliferative activity of tumors, and the PCNA labeling index has been correlated with the prognosis of several malignant neoplasms.

Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in gastric cancer was evaluated in relation to lymph node metastasis. A total of 125 gastric cancer patients who underwent gastrectomy were studied immunohistochemically. The PCNA-positive rate of the primary lesion with lymph node metastasis (47.6%) was sig
The risk of an internal mammary lymph node (IMN) metastasis and its prognostic value for patients with invasive breast cancer were assessed by evaluating 142 patients who had either a mastectomy with lymph node dissection or a biopsy of the IMN. By univariate analysis, overall survival significantly
