Levels of CEA, CA153, CA199, CA724 and AFP in nipple discharge of breast cancer patients.
The distinction between breast cancer and benign breast diseases with nipple discharge remains an important diagnostic challenge. The purpose of this study was to predict the potential usefulness of tumor markers in nipple discharge and to investigate the relationship of tumor markers and clinical characteristics with breast cancer.One hundred and eleven patients with nipple discharge received ...
متن کاملComplete sequencing of TP53 predicts poor response to systemic therapy of advanced breast cancer.
TP53 has been implicated in regulation of the cell cycle, DNA repair, and apoptosis. We studied, in primary breast tumors through direct cDNA sequencing of exons 2-11, whether TP53 gene mutations can predict response in patients with advanced disease to either first-line tamoxifen therapy (202 patients, of whom 55% responded) or up-front (poly)chemotherapy (41 patients, of whom 46% responded). ...
متن کاملUpregulation of IGF-1R Expression during Neoadjuvant Therapy Predicts Poor Outcome in Breast Cancer Patients
INTRODUCTION The insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R) may be involved in the development of resistance against conventional cancer treatment. The aim of this study was to assess whether IGF-1R expression of breast tumors changes during neoadjuvant therapy and to study whether these changes were associated with survival. METHODS Paraffin embedded tumor tissue was collected from pretr...
متن کاملAlterations in serum levels of trace element in patients with breast cancer before and after chemotherapy
Background: Breast cancer is the most common serious disease around the world. The trace elements have a vital role in the metabolism and chemotherapy may change the level of metal ions. Due to the ambiguity of the existence in this regard, the study examined the trace element serum levels in women with breast cancer before and after chemotherapy . Methods: Sixty patients were studied undergoi...
متن کاملHigh expression of PALB2 predicts poor prognosis in patients with advanced breast cancer
PALB2 mutation is associated with increased breast cancer risk; however, PALB2 mutation is rare in sporadic breast cancer cases and little is known about PALB2 expression in breast cancer. Here, we evaluated the prognostic effects of PALB2 with tissue microarray specimens of 117 female breast cancer patients, and determined the potential underlying mechanisms in cell models. In immunohistochemi...
