  • Preliminary Study of Correlation Between Androgen or Stathmin Expression in Patients with Triple Negative Breast Cancer and Its Clinicopathologic Factors

    Objective To explore the expressions of androgen (AR) and Stathmin in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) and analyze the correlation between these expressions and clinicopathologic features. Methods Eighty-three patients who were diagnosed as TNBC and met the inclusion criteria from 2005 to 2009 in the Sichuan Provincial People’s Hospital were collected retrospectively. The expressions of AR and Stathmin in the TNBC tissues by using the method of EnVision immunohistochemistry. The correlation between AR or Stathmin expression and age, tumor size, lymph node status, or histological grade was analyzed by Spearman test. Results The AR and Stathmin positive expression rates in the patients with TNBC were 37.3% (31/83) and 98.8% (82/83), respectively. The AR expression was positively correlated with age(rs=0.302, P=0.006)and pathological grade (rs=0.225, P=0.041), but was not correlated with tumor size or lymph node status. The Stathmin expression was not correlated with age, tumor size, lymph node status, or pathological grade (P>0.05) . Conclusions The AR expression is correlated with the age or pathological grade but Stathmin expression was all not correlated with the clinicopathologic features. AR or Stathmin as a prognosis indicator in patients with TNBC are needed to more research.
