  • Title: Evaluation of nucleolar organizer region-associated proteins in endometrial pathology.
    Author: Mauri MF, Fibbi ML, Lo Re V, Albertoni M, Canevini P.
    Journal: Histol Histopathol; 1991 Oct; 6(4):531-4. PubMed ID: 1804431.
    Abstract:
    In the current study the argyrophil staining technique for NOR proteins (Ag-NORs) has been performed on cases of different endometrial lesions, trying to find an aid in differentiating atypical hyperplasia from well differentiated carcinoma in biopsy specimens. We conclude that the Ag-NOR count, even though in endometrial carcinoma is significantly exceeding that of atypical hyperplastic endometrium, could be a misleading discriminator, because of a wide overlap of values in individual cases.
