Sixty-eight frozen human breast tissue specimens were evaluated by LCM, qPCR and IHC, including 31 primary tumors of infiltrating ductal carcinomas (22 primary tumors with metastasis and nine primary tumors without known metastasis), 22 matched nodal metastases, 10 fibroadenomas and five normal breast tissues (obtained from reduction mammoplasty).
Incubation of fibroadenoma and normal breast tissue specimens with the OPN antibody also produced positive staining in the epithelial cells of 53% of nonmalignant cases (five fibroadenomas and three normal breast tissues).
These observations differ from a recent report that one of the other two Pten +/- lines develops fibroadenomas and adenocarcinomas in the mammary tissue after 7 months of age [ 26].
