## Abstract ## BACKGROUND A positive correlation between breast tumor size and the number of axillary lymph nodes containing tumor is well established. It has been reported that patients with __BRCA1__‐related breast carcinoma are more likely than patients with nonhereditary breast carcinoma to ha
MUC1 mucin is a high molecular weight transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on the apical cell surface of normal glandular epithelia. In many human adenocarcinomas, this protein is up-regulated and/or underglycosylated, and its expression changes from apical to the entire cell membrane. It is thought
A positive relationship between serum protein-bound fucose levels and carcinoma of the female breast has been demonstrated in previous reports. In this study, breast tissue fucose levels were determined and the value of a ratio between malignant tumor and control tissue levels was found to correlate
