tumours showing single cell infiltration. On the basis of these findings, it was<br />
concluded that immunoreactivity of CD10 will help in determining the Gleason score<br />
of a tumour.<br />
In the immunohistochemical studies with E-cadherin, two of the 8 cases with<br />
Gleason score 2-4 (low grade) showed grade 1 staining, whereas two cases showed<br />
grade 2 staining and the remaining four showed grade 3 staining.<br />
Of the 84 cases with Gleason score 5-7 (intermediate grade), seven showed<br />
grade 0 staining; 16, grade 1 staining; 33, grade 2 staining and 28 showed grade 3<br />
staining.<br />
Of the 79 cases with Gleason score 8-10 (high grade), nine showed grade 0<br />
staining; 15, grade 1 staining; 27, grade 2 staining and 28 showed grade 3 staining.<br />
In the light of these findings, it was concluded that the immunoreactivity of Ecadherin<br />
can not be used in prostate adenocarcinoma for diagnostic purposes.<br />
