The Mammastatin Serum Assay may help identify both women with breast cancer and those at risk to develop breast cancer. We currently are evaluating estrogen and androgen levels in serum from 74 women who developed postmenopausal breast cancer and 148 matched controls. (1998) Correlation between carotenoid concentrations in serum and in normal breast tissues of women with benign breast tumor or breast cancer. There was no association between reported total serum cholesterol levels and breast cancer risk in either pre-menopausal or post-menopausal women. In conclusion
the present results suggest that activin A is expressed at both tissue and serum in postmenopausal women with breast cancer. There did not appear to be an increased risk of breast cancer with different serum levels of PCBs among women who carried m4 genotypes.

women in the study who had serum samples later developed breast cancer. Relation of serum levels of testosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate to risk of breast cancer in postmenopausal women.

breast cancer was strongly associated with the concentration of DDE in serum. No differences in serum levels of total DDT or HCB were found between oestrogen receptor positive and oestrogen receptor negative patients with breast cancer. Samples were analysed in duplicate in batches that included breast cancer and control samples
together with pooled serum quality control samples. Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane serum levels and breast cancer risk: a case-control study from Mexico. Univariate analyses showed that cases and controls had no significant association between serum cholesterol level and BMI and breast cancer. CONCLUSION: Serum c-erbB-2 levels are elevated in approximately one fourth of patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer. Elevated soluble c-erbB-2 antigen levels in the serum and effusions of a proportion of breast cancer patients

Leitzel et al. Immunoprecipitation and Western blotting were used to characterize further the c-erbB-2 immunoreactivity in the serum of four breast cancer patients. Table 4Risk of breast cancer in relation to serum concentrations of organochlorines in quartiles by estrogen receptor status. Table 5Overall breast cancer survival in relation to serum concentrations of organochlorines by estrogen receptor status. Table 1 shows the measured lipid adjusted serum organochlorine concentration among these breast cancer cases.

We measured fat-soluble antioxidant nutrients
carotenoids
retinoids and tocopherols in serum and endogenous carotenoid levels in normal breast adipose tissue. Correlations between carotenoid concentrations in serum and in breast adipose tissue were determined by combining the data of the two groups. However
serum cryptoxanthin showed no correlation with breast adipose tissue cryptoxanthin levels. The relationship of the values of the breast tissue to the serum variables was examined by using Spearman correlation coefficients. HPLC chromatograms of the major carotenoids in human serum (A) and human breast adipose tissue (B) obtained from a benign breast tumor patient. Before extraction
serum was digested with lipase and cholesterol esterase
and breast adipose tissue was saponified. The neu-oncogene product in serum and tissue of patients with breast carcinoma

Kath et al. There was quality control data for the serum measurements but not for breast or gluteal adipose tissue. We detected ratios close to 1:1 for many of the comparisons among lipid-corrected serum

and gluteal adipose tissue. Comparison of organochlorine pesticide and polychlorinated biphenyl residues in human breast adipose tissue and serum. Most studies of bioaccumulation of pollutant chemicals are carried out by using serum or urine and studies using breast adipose tissue are few. Concentrations of the major serum carotenoids except cryptoxanthin showed significant correlations with breast adipose tissue carotenoid levels.
