Decreased expression of catenins (? and ?), p120 CTN, and E-cadherin cell adhesion proteins and E-cadherin gene promoter methylation in prostatic adenocarcinomas
1 Jan 2001
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Catenin/E-cadherin complex proteins play an important role in cell-cell adhesion with decreased expression correlating with adverse prognostic variables in several human malignancies. METHODS: Archival formalin fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) sections from 118 prostatic adenocarcinomas (PACs) were immunostained by an automated method (Ventana Medical Systems, Tuscon, AZ) using monoclonal antibodies to...
