Abstract

BackgroundIn ovarian cancer, the role of estrogen receptors (ERs), particularly of ER, being suggested as tumor suppressor in breast and prostate cancer, remains unclear. We examined the expression of nuclear and cytoplasmic ER in ovarian cancer and correlated it with expression of ovarian cancer markers CA125, CEA and CA72-4, steroid hormone receptors ER and PR, cancer-associated genes EGFR, ...
