The material of patients with invasive carcinoma of no special type (ICNT) and nonmalignant diseases (ND) of the mammary gland was studied. When comparing the concentrations of histidine-rich glycoprotein (HRG) and E-cadherin (CDH1), statistically significant differences between ICNT and ND by HRG in the supernatant of blood cells and its spontaneous production by biopsies and by CDH1 at its induced production, as well as by influence indices of polyclonal activators on the production of CDH1 were found. When comparing the expression of immunohistochemical markers, no statistically significant differences between ICNT and ND were obtained.

HRG mRNA expression was detected in 70% of cases in biopsy material obtained from patients with nonspecific invasive carcinoma and in 66.7% of cases in biopsy material of patients with benign breast diseases.
