Different Proliferation Patterns in Breast Cancer: AgNOR Measurements in ER-Negative and ER-Positive Tumor Cells

The relation between estrogen receptors (ER) and argyrophilic nucleolar organizer regions (AgNORs) in situ within human breast cancer cells was analyzed. For AgNOR measurements in 49 invasive breast carcinomas, a new reproducible staining method for dual demonstration of ER and AgNORs was applied. Q...
