“…[10] However, in our study, Bcl2 was not found to be significant associated with the expression of steroid hormone receptors such as ER, compared to other studies. [4,10] Estrogen has a significant role in promoting malignancy in breast and potentially to be a mediator of the mammary gland since it is necessary for development and metastasis. [13] The results of the present study showed a significant increasing trend of ER expression with malignancy in the stromal component (p < 0.05).…”

“…It is composed of both glandular and connective tissue, characterized by hyperplasia and abnormal lobular breast units. [2][3][4] The PTs are rare neoplasms and accounting for less than 1% of all primary breast tumors. [5][6][7] PTs show predominantly of FA criteria, with a leaf-like projection cells and more cellular connective tissue stroma component.…”

“…Níveis elevados de c-myc foram descritos em tumores de mama, cólon e pulmão, e estão associados a um mau prognóstico 20 . Contudo, assim como foi observado em nossos resultados, a expressão de mRNA para c-myc em fi broadenomas de mama, e tumores benignos (como os miomas) é semelhante à expressão em tecido mamário normal 21 . O gene c-fos não é necessário para promoção de tumor, mas parece ter um papel essencial na progressão de tumor benigno para maligno.…”

“…Genes reguladores do ciclo celular, como os proto-oncogenes myc, fos e jun, e genes reguladores da apoptose como bcl-2, p53 e p21, também participam dos processos de proliferação e formação tumoral de diversos tecidos incluindo a próstata (35)(36)(37)(38). Outros genes envolvidos com a ação androgênica podem também ser listados: ras, Rb, Waf1, transdutores de sinal intracelular como a proteína quinase C e GTPase, entre outros (39).…”
