Leptin receptor expression and cell signaling in breast cancer.

abstract：:One hundred and eighty-one breast cancer specimens were analyzed for nuclear p53 staining by immunochemical methods. There were 123 fine-needle cytological specimens and 58 frozen tissue sections of surgical biopsies. The microscopic evaluation of the staining fitted with a 4 group classification. Ninety-one samples (...
