CCNA2 and neoplasm: As Ki67 is expressed throughout most of the cell cycle (Gerdes, 1990), and the expression of cyclin A is restricted to the S- and G2-phases in both normal and tumour cells (Erlandsson et al, 2000), the data indicate that in breast tumours the S- and G2-phases on average occupies about 40% of the whole cell cycle as defined by Ki67.
