We observed no association between neoplastic epithelial immunostainingfor either amphiregulin (AR) or heregulin (HRG) and presence of ER,EGFR/ERBB-2 overexpression, nodal status, or disease recurrence in 34 breastcarcinomas. However, stromal cell staining for both correlated with outcome;29% of stromal cell AR⊖ cases recurred vs. 85% forAR⊕ cases (p=0.001), and 41% of stromal cell HRG⊖cases recurred vs. 82% of HRG⊕ cases (p=0.01). Weconclude that both HRG and AR have significant biologic roles in breastcarcinoma growth or progression via mediation of host-tumor interactionswhich favor aggressive tumor behavior.
