Several reports have established that sporadic breast carcinomas with expression of basal cell (myoepithelial cell) markers, such as P-cadherin and high molecular weight cytokeratins CK5/6, CK14, and CK17, show specific morphologic and prognostic characteristics (1,2). In cDNA studies, Perou et al. (3) also defined a subgroup of estrogen receptor (ER)-negative/HER2-negative breast cancers characterized by the expression of the basal cell markers. Recently, Sorlie et . . . [Full Text of this Article]
