Estrogen receptor determination was performed on 120 breast cancer cytosols, using the dextran-coated charcoal method (DCC) and an enzyme immunoassay (EIA) to compare the efficiency of the two techniques. A strong correlation was noted between ER concentrations determined by DCC and EIA (P < 0.001). The mean ER-EIA value was significantly higher than the mean ER-DCC value in premenopausal (P < 0.001) as well in postmenopausal (P < 0.001) patients.

Two monoclonal antibodies against MCF-7 human estrogen receptors were used for immunoperoxidase staining of paraffin sections of human breast cancer tissue. The staining was predominantly located in the nucleus of epithelial cells. Variation in the staining intensity was observed among individual cells. A significant positive correlation between the number of positively stained cells and cytosol estrogen receptor content (fmol of bound estrogen/mg of protein) was observed. The potential and the limitations of the present techniques are discussed.
