| Abstract | The aim of this study was to examine the expression of ERM (ezrin, moesin) and Rho (RhoA, RhoB and Cdc42) proteins in breast cancer (BC) patients and to investigate the relationship between the sub-cellular localisation of these proteins and clinicopathological characteristics and patient survival.The expression and specific sub-cellular distribution of the ERM/Rho proteins was analysed by immunohistochemistry in a homogeneous group of 85 stage II ductal BC patients with a follow-up of 15 years.Enhanced immunoreactivity of all analysed proteins was found to be associated with the presence of lymph node metastases (ezrin, P = 0.047, moesin, P = 0.038, RhoA, P = 0.024, RhoB, P = 0.004 and Cdc42, P = 0.047). Nuclear localisation of ezrin was found to correlate with the presence of lymph nodes metastases (P = 0.004) and with histological de-differentiation (P = 0.015). In contrast, we found that the nuclear topography of RhoA and Cdc42, and the perinuclear localisation of RhoB, were strongly associated with a lack of nodal metastases (P = 0.008, P = 0.048, P = 0.001, respectively), whereas a decreased reactivity of RhoA in the stromal compartment of BC tumours was associated with the presence of lymph node metastases (P = 0.011). No relationship was observed between ERM/Rho protein expression and oestrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PgR) or HER-2 reactivity in the BC cells. Also, ERM/Rho protein expression did not predict patient survival, but RhoB over-expression in the stromal compartment of the tumours was found to be associated with a better prognosis (P = 0.0106).The ERM/Rho immunoprofile and the assessment of its specific sub-cellular localisation may be instrumental for the prediction of lymph node metastases in ductal BC patients. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
