This classification has been translated to classical immunohistochemistry (IHC): basal-type tumours are characterised by negative staining for oestrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor, and HER2 and are often positive for keratin 5/6; ERB-B2 tumours are HER2-positive, and luminal A and B tumours are ER-positive and HER2-negative. This evidence concerns the gene PGR and neoplasm.
