Low CD10 mRNA expression identifies high-risk ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS).

PURPOSE: Optimal management of breast ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is controversial, and many patients are still overtreated. The local death of myoepithelial cells (MECs) is believed to be a pre-requisite to tumor invasion. We thus hypothesized that loss of CD10 expression, a MEC surface peptida...
