| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To establish the accurate diagnostic tool for the endometrial cancer, we analyzed the PTEN protein expression and gene loss of endometrial carcinoma using liquid-based cytology（LBC）. PTEN protein expression was decreased in endometrial cancer compared to normal and endometrial hyperplasia. FISH assessment for PTEN gene in LBC slide needs the pretreatment to detect the clear fluorescent signal. We are considering a new protocol to detect a stable fluorescence signal in LBC slides.
