A METHOD FOR QUANTIFICATION OF CALPONIN EXPRESSION IN MYOEPITHELIAL CELLS IN IMMUNOHISTOCHEMICAL IMAGES OF DUCTAL CARCINOMA IN SITU.
Proceedings of the IEEE International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging: from Nano to Macro 2018 April
Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is breast cancer confined within mammary ducts, surrounded by an intact myoepithelial cell layer that prevents local invasion. A DCIS diagnosis confers increased lifetime risk of developing invasive breast cancer (IBC) and results in surgical excision with radiation, and possibly endocrine- or chemo-therapy. DCIS is known to be over treated, with associated co-morbidities. Biomarkers are needed that delineate patients at low risk of DCIS progression from patients requiring more aggressive treatment. Investigating the role of myoepithelial cell differentiation in barrier function is anticipated to provide insight into DCIS progression and delineate between low and high risk lesions. Here, we develop a high throughput technique to assess loss of myoepithelial differentiation markers. This method facilitates automated analysis of a clinically relevant histopathologic feature, as demonstrated by a high correlation with pathologist annotation (r = 0.959), and further, contributes analytical foundations to a multiplexed immunohistochemistry (IHC) approach.
