Breast Cancer Associated with Dermatomyositis
Dermatomyositis (DM) is a rare idiopathic inflammatory myopathy with characteristic skin lesions. Case series have shown an association between dermatomyositis and malignancy. Malignancy has been found in 15-25% of the adult patients with dermatomyositis. A 50-year-old new case of breast cancer, was admitted with muscle weakness and inability to walk. Physical examination revealed fever, perior...
متن کاملAssociation of genetic variants at 8q24 with breast cancer risk.
Recent whole genome association studies of prostate, breast, and colorectal cancer have identified susceptibility loci on 8q24. We genotyped three variants associated with prostate cancer (rs10090154, rs13254738, and rs7000448), one associated with both prostate and colorectal cancer (rs6983267), and one associated with breast cancer (rs13281615) in a series of 1,499 breast cancer cases and 1,3...
متن کاملGenetic polymorphism in ERCC5 and breast cancer risk
ERCC5 plays crucial role in excision repair DNA damage induced by UV in NER pathway. Single neuleotide polymorphism in ERCC5 were responsible for different cancers.Therefore, current study evaluated the relationship between ERCC5 (rs1047768 T>C) polymorphism and the risk of breast cancer in Pakistani population. The rs1047768 polymorphism was screened among 175 female...

متن کاملCommon genomic variants associated with breast cancer predict the risk of second primary breast cancer diagnosis
Background A diagnosis of a second primary breast cancer (‘bilateral breast cancer’) occurs in between 2-11% of women affected by breast cancer in the general population, but is increased in frequency in women with a family history of breast cancer. We investigated whether the common genomic variants described in breast cancer GWAS studies were determinants of the risk of bilateral breast cance...
