Background: Aberrant methylation of cytosine-guanine dinucleotide islands leads to inactivation of tumor suppressor genes in breast cancer. Tumor suppressor genes are unmethylated in normal tissue and often become hypermethylated during tumor formation, leading to gene silencing. We investigated the association between E-cadherin (CDH1) and estrogen receptor-α (ESRα) gene promoter methylation a...

UNLABELLED The aim of this study is to assess the impact of multiparametric MR imaging to an exact determination of the extent of invasive ductal and lobular breast cancers in routine clinical practice.180 women aged 27-74 years (median 52.4 years) with newly diagnosed invasive ductal and lobular breast cancers confirmed by core-cut or vacuum-assisted biopsy were examined by all three imaging m...

OBJECTIVE Serine protease 3 (PRSS3) is an isoform of trypsinogen, and plays an important role in the development of many malignancies. The objective of this study was to determine PRSS3 mRNA and protein expression levels in invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast and normal surrounding tissue samples. RESULTS Both PRSS3 mRNA and protein levels were significantly higher in invasive ductal carc...

Background: Medullary breast carcinoma (MBC) is a unique histological subtype of breast cancer. The present study aimed to evaluate the classic and non-classic characteristics of MBC and its differences with IDC. The present review study incorporates 22 years of practical experience from a breast disease research center-based series of cases.Methods: Retrospectively, the medical records of 3,24...

Economics can clarify the discussion on invasive species in at least three ways. First is through the use of incentives to change human behavior so as to enhance protection against the introduction, establishment, and spread of invasive species across the world. The second recognizes the public good characteristics of invasive species control, and develops institutions to support the weakest me...

The freshwater-marine transition that characterizes an estuarine system can provide multiple entry options for invading species, yet the relative importance of this gradient in determining the functional contribution of invading species has received little attention. The ecological consequences of species invasion are routinely evaluated within a freshwater versus marine context, even though ma...

Invasive species are nonindigenous species that are introduced into new environments, where they become established and expand their range [1]. They undergo rapid proliferation following the colonization of new habitats, often at the expense of native species, thus having a negative impact on biodiversity. The prospering discipline of invasion ecology seeks to understand why some species become...

breast cancer is a major cause of mortality in women due to malignant diseases and is the most prevalent type of cancer in western countries. according to investigations which has been done in iran so far, the prevalence of disease in our country is also very high, therefore complete attention to clinical and pathological findings of this disease would be extremely essential. in this study, the...
