Abstract
Girdin is highly expressed in breast carcinomas. Suppression of Girdin inhibited breast cancer cell migration. However, the clinical implications of Girdin as a marker are still unclear. Here we examined 80 breast cancer specimens using immunohistochemistry. Overall, positive Girdin staining was 41.25% in all of the cases. Girdin was strongly expressed in tumors of CerbB2-positive breast cancers (p < .05). Cases with both CerbB2- and Girdin-positive expression had a higher histological grade than the others. These findings indicated the closed relationship between breast cancer progression and Girdin expression. Girdin together with CerbB2 might be a new potential marker for breast cancers.
