ABSTRACT
Objective:
To study the relationship between the expression of filamin A (FLNa) and clinical pathological features in invasive breast carcinoma.Methods:
The expression of FLNa was measured by immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry in 46 cases of invasive breast carcinoma.Results:
The expression level of FLNa was increased in poorly differentiated invasive breast carcinoma. There were significant differences between well-moderately differentiated and poorly differentiated groups (P<0.05). The expression level of FLNa in invasive breast carcinoma with lymph node metastasis was higher than that in non-metastasis group (P<0.05).Conclusion:
The level of FLNa expression correlated with invasion and metastasis of invasive breast carcinoma. FLNa can be used as an assistant marker for prediction of breast carcinoma prognosis and has the potential to be a new target for cilinical therapy.
