A six-gene signature predicting breast cancer lung metastasis.
The lungs are a frequent target of metastatic breast cancer cells, but the underlying molecular mechanisms are unclear. All existing data were obtained either using statistical association between gene expression measurements found in primary tumors and clinical outcome, or using experimentally derived signatures from mouse tumor models. Here, we describe a distinct approach that consists of us...
متن کاملConfounding effects in "a six-gene signature predicting breast cancer lung metastasis": reply.
Molecular signatures have begun to elucidate the biological and molecular mechanisms underlying the phenotypic diversity of breast tumors. Breast tumors are characterized by five different molecular subtypes that are associated with distinct clinical outcomes in terms of prognosis, treatment response, and site of relapse. In particular, the basal-like and luminal B subtypes of tumors are more a...
متن کاملCancer metastasis at a glance: A brief view of Breast Cancer Brain Metastasis
Cancer initiation and progression is a challenging scenario through developmental processes, which may be more complicated by occurrence of metastasis. Basically, diverse genetic alterations, including mutations, formation of truncated proteins and related pathways play key roles either in diagnosis or the most influential therapeutic purposes. ...

متن کاملCardiac Metastasis of Breast Cancer: A Case Report
Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in women. As we know, cardiac metastases occur rarely. In this study, a 40-year-old woman referred to the hospital due to severe pain in the right leg. She was diagnosed with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and received treatment, but, after one month and a half she returned with severe pain, exacerbated shortness of breath, cramping pain, and chest pa...
