Among these putative markers, there is Biglycan (BGN) . BGN is a class I small leucine-rich proteoglycan family of proteins characterized by a protein core with leucine-rich repeats. The objective of this study is to compare the protein expression of BGN in breast tissue with and without cancer, using immunohistochemical technique associated with digital histological score (D-HScore) and supervised deep learning neural networks (SDLNN) . In this case-control study, 24 formalin–fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues were obtained for analysis. Normal (n = 9) and cancerous (n = 15) tissue sections were analyzed by immunohistochemistry using BGN monoclonal antibody (M01-Abnova) and 3,3’-Diaminobenzidine (DAB) as the chromogen. Photomicrographs of the slides were analysed with D-HScore, using arbitrary DAB units. Another set (n = 129) with higher magnification without ROI selection, was submitted to the inceptionV3 deep neural network image embedding recognition model. Next, supervised neural network analysis, using stratified 20 fold cross validation, with 200 hidden layers, ReLu activation, and regularization at α = 0.0001 were applied for SDLNN. The sample size was calculated for a minimum of 7 cases and 7 controls, having a power = 90%, an α error = 5%, and a standard deviation of 20, to identify a decrease from the average of 40 DAB units (control) to 4 DAB units in cancer. BGN expression in DAB units [median (range)] was 6.2 (0 .8 to 12 .4) and 27.31 (5 .3 to 81 .7) in cancer and normal breast tissue, respectively, using D-HScore (p = 0.0017, Mann-Whitney test) . SDLNN classification accuracy was 85 .3%(110 out of 129; 95%CI = 78. 1% to 90 .3%) . BGN protein expression is reduced in breast cancer tissue, compared to normal tissue.  \n0337 at Hospital de Cl´ınicas de Porto Alegre.
