Androgen receptors as a prognostic and predictive factor in breast cancer.
Many theoretical and experimental models indicate that androgen receptors can play an important role as prognostic factors in breast cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate the correlations between the presence of androgen receptors on cancer cells and other selected prognostic and predictive factors with established clinical significance in women with breast cancer after radical surgical...
متن کاملCXCL12/CXCR4 Gene Polymorphism as a Putative Prognostic Factor for Metastasizing Breast Cancer under Chemotherapy
The receptor and the receptor axis CXCL12 / CXCR4 are the two pairs studied in the metastasis of breast cancer. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the occurrence of CXCR4 / CXCL12 genes polymorphism and the clinical and pathological characteristics of patients with metastatic breast cancer under chemotherapy. Material and methods: Genomic DNA was extracted f...
متن کاملExpression of androgen receptor in breast cancer and its significance as a prognostic factor.
BACKGROUND Breast cancer is an extraordinarily hormone-dependent tumor. This study was to evaluate androgen receptor (AR) status and its significance in breast cancer in Chinese women. METHODS Three hundred and thirty-five consecutive cases of invasive ductal breast carcinoma, 34 ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), and 82 DCIS adjacent to invasive tissues were involved in this study. The express...
متن کاملProgesterone and estrogen receptors as prognostic variables in breast cancer.
Estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) levels have been measured in 374 tumors from patients with primary breast cancer and compared with axillary nodal status and other patient variables to determine their relationship to prognosis. Nodal status reliably predicted disease-free interval and overall survival, and both ER and PR status predicted overall survival both individually a...
متن کاملPretreatment Thrombocytosis as a Prognostic Factor in Metastatic Breast Cancer
Background. An elevated platelet count is often associated with malignancies, and it has been confirmed as an adverse prognostic factor in various cancers including early stage breast cancer. We sought to determine if thrombocytosis is also a prognostic factor in metastatic breast cancer. Patients and Methods. The records of 165 metastatic breast cancer patients with complete follow-up that had...
