Photomicrographs showing male cells with X (red) and Y (green) chromosome signals within breast carcinoma after fluorescence hybridization (FISH)

Male cells after FISH (arrows). Original magnifications: 630× for panel a and 1,000× for panel b. A cluster of cytokeratin-positive cells: panel c shows male cells after FISH in a cluster of maternal cells (arrow), and panel d shows cytokeratin-positive male cell after FISH and immunolabelling (arrow). Original magnification: 1,000× for both panels. A cluster of vimentin-positive cells: panel e shows a male cell after FISH in a cluster of maternal cells (arrow), and panel f shows a vimentin-positive male cell after immunolabelling (arrow). Original magnification: 1,000× for both panels.<p><b>Copyright information:</b></p><p>Taken from "Breast cancer stroma frequently recruits fetal derived cells during pregnancy"</p><p>http://breast-cancer-research.com/content/10/1/R14</p><p>Breast Cancer Research : BCR 2008;10(1):R14-R14.</p><p>Published online 13 Feb 2008</p><p>PMCID:PMC2374970.</p><p></p
