Expression of FOXA1 and GATA-3 in breast cancer: the prognostic significance in hormone receptor-negative tumours (2009)

Albergaria, André, Paredes, Joana, Sousa, Bárbara, Milanezi, Fernanda, Carneiro, Vítor, Bastos, Joana, ...

Abstract Introduction The expression of additional genes, other than oestrogen receptor (ER), may be important to the hormone-responsive phenotype of breast cancer. Microarray analyses have revealed...

P-cadherin expression in breast cancer: a review (2007)

Paredes, Joana, Correia, Ana, Ribeiro, Ana, Albergaria, André, Milanezi, Fernanda, Schmitt, Fernando C

Abstract P-cadherin is frequently over-expressed in high-grade invasive breast carcinomas and has been reported to be an enhancer of migration and invasion of breast cancer cells, being correlated...

P-cadherin overexpression Is an indicator of clinical outcome in invasive breast carcinomas and is associated with CDH3 promoter hypomethylation (2005)

Paredes, Joana, Albergaria, André, Oliveira, João T., Jerónimo, Carmen, Milanezi, Fernanda, Schmitt, Fernando C.

Purpose: P-cadherin overexpressionhas been reported in breast carcinomas,where itwas associated with proliferative high-grade histological tumors. This study aimed to analyze P-cadherin expression in...

P-cadherin expression in glandular lesions of the uterine cervix detected by liquid-based cytology (2005)

Longatto Filho, Adhemar, Albergaria, André, Paredes, Joana, Moreira, M. A. R., Milanezi, Fernanda, Schmitt, Fernando C.

Objective: To study P-cadherin aberrant expression as a possible marker for cervical adenocarcinomas in cytological samples. Methods: We studied P-cadherin immunoexpression in liquid-based cervical...

Distribution of p63, a novel myoepithelial marker, in fine-needle aspiration biopsies of the breast : an analysis of 82 samples (2003)

Reis Filho, Jorge S., Milanezi, Fernanda, Amendoeira, Isabel, Albergaria, André, Schmitt, Fernando C.

BACKGROUND. The presence of myoepithelial cells (MECs) in fine-needle aspiration biopsies (FNAB) of the breast constitute an important criterion used to diagnose benign breast lesions. However, MECs...

Naked nuclei revisited : p63 immunoexpression (2002)

Reis Filho, Jorge S., Albergaria, André, Milanezi, Fernanda, Amendoeira, Isabel, Schmitt, Fernando C.

The presence of naked nuclei (NN) in cytological preparations of fibroadenomas is a well-known finding. Regardless of their importance on the differential diagnosis of fibroadenoma and other benign...

p63 expression in normal skin and usual cutaneous carcinomas (2002)

Reis Filho, Jorge S., Torlo, Beatriz, Albergaria, André, Schmitt, Fernando C.

Background: p63 is a p53 homologue that is mapped to chromosome 3q27. This gene encodes six different isoforms, which have either transactivating or dominant negative effects on p53-reporter genes....
