A new monoclonal antibody to human c-jun oncoprotein, designated NCL-DK4, has been produced. NCL-DK4 has been proved to be highly effective for use on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues, enabling the study of c-jun expression at a cellular level in both normal and neoplastic human tissues. The expression of c-jun oncogene has been examined in normal, benign, and malignant breast tissues, and c-jun-specific immunoreactivity in carcinomas has been related to histological type, tumour grade, c-erbB-2, oestrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and epidermal growth factor receptor expression. Normal and benign breast tissues showed c-jun-specific immunostaining, which was weaker and in fewer cells compared with the c-jun immunoreactivity observed in breast carcinomas. No relationship was found between the degree of immunostaining and the extent of proliferative changes in benign breast tissues. Ninety per cent of all breast carcinomas studied showed c-jun-specific nuclear staining. There were no statistically significant differences in the intensity of c-jun immunoreactivity among grade I, II, and III infiltrating ductal carcinomas. There was no significant relationship between c-jun oncoprotein expression and c-erbB-2, oestrogen, progesterone, and epidermal growth factor receptor immunoreactivity.
