title: [Differential expression of cyclins D1, E and A in human breast diseases].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To understand with greater clearness the effect of overexpression of cyclins gene and the potential implications of it for tumorgenesis in breast.
  
  
  METHODS
  We assayed the expression of cyclins D1, E and A in different types of human breast diseases by immunohistochemical staining.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Significant difference was seen among the malignant tumor, benign tumor and dysplasis(P < 0.001). The expressive intensity of above three kind of cyclins in malignant tumor was the highest, that in benign tumor was higher, and that in dysplasis was low.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  These data suggest that the expressive intensity of cyclins gene may serve as an indicator for malignant intensity of tumors. The expressive ratio difference of cyclins E and A between infiltrating ductal carcinoma and infiltrating lobular carcinoma may imply that there are different mechanisms involving the occurrence of different histological types of breast tumor.
