On Masterpieces and Breast Cancer Research

On masterpieces and breast cancer research.

The artist Henri Matisse captured the essence of a problem we often have in science—those landmark discoveries that benchmark the type of progress we think we should be continuously making. This edition of CCR Focus presents instead an alternative view of discovery and progress, one in which a steady expansion of our understanding of the biology of breast cancer has led to progress on multiple ...

Molecular Epidemiology of Breast Cancer among Iranian-Azeri Population based on P53 Research

Background: This study was done in order to enhance our understanding about molecular and epidemiological features of breast cancer among the Azeri population with special emphasis on the detection of TP53 mutations. We also analyzed the role of the P53codon72 polymorphism (rs1042522) and its role in susceptibility to breast cancer. Methods: ...

Breast Cancer and Screening

سرطان پستان یکی از شایع ترین بیماریهای بدخیم و اولین علت مرگ و میر زنان بوده و تقریبا یک سوم تمام سرطانهای زنان را تشکیل می دهد.

Functional genomics in translational cancer research: focus on breast cancer.

Conventional molecular and genetic methods for studying cancer are limited to the analysis of one locus at a time. A cluster of genes that are regulated together can be identified by DNA microarray, and the functional relationships can uncover new aspects of cancer biology. Breast cancer can be used to provide a model to demonstrate the current approaches to the molecular analysis of cancer. Me...
