Abstract:
:We analyzed the representation of CD44 isoforms with both exons v9 and v10 among CD44 total amount and also examined correlation between their expression, clinical parameters and survival. We used a semi-quantitative RT-PCR reaction and a panel of 25 normal breast specimens, 10 mammary fibroadenomas, 8 cystic samples and 52 primary breast tumors. CD44 expression level was statistically higher in malignant tumors than in normal breast tissues (p = 0.038) or in fibroadenomas (p = 0.047) and correlated with histological grading, p = 0.047. Ratios CD44 variants with both exons v9 and v10/ total CD44 were similar in normal breast tissues and fibroadenomas but lower in the cystic samples. In primary N(-)M(-) breast tumors, unfavourable outcome and relapse were correlated with low ratios.
