CDH1 and inflammatory breast carcinoma: In the present study, using the well-characterized patient-derived xenograft (PDX), Mary-X, which exhibited florid lymphovascular invasion (LVI) in athymic mice (LVI) as defined by E-cadherin-positive tumor emboli within lymphatic channels distinguished by podoplanin and LYVE1 membrane and Prox1 nuclear immunoreactivities and spontaneous spheroidgenesis in vitro and human cases of IBC which showed similar LVI, we compared laser-captured microdissected emboli from Mary-X and from the cases of human IBC to non-embolic areas.
