background and objective: in this study, we explored expression rate, some biomarkers affecting the prognosis of the breast carcinoma, and the relationship between these markers and clinicopathologic features of the disease as well as the relationship between each of these markers through a tissue array technique. materials and methods: this study was an observational and cross-sectional study....

background: ultrasound propagation velocity was measured experimentally in normal, fibroadenoma and ductal carcinoma breast tissues, in order to distinguish normal breast tissue from tumors. materials and methods: in quantitative measurements of ultrasound velocity, 403 breast tissue images were selected, comprising 130 normal breast tissue, 130 fibroadenoma, and 143 ductal carcinoma tumors. th...

breast cancer is common and is considered second cause of cancer related mortality in females. regarding importance of breast cancer, more investigation in this field is recommended. for many years investigators believed that neoplasms were not innervated but new findings have proved otherwise. this descriptive study was carried out to compare number of nerve fibers in benign, malignant and nor...

introduction: of the factors leading to false negative results in mammography is breast tissue density, and by increasing the density of breast tissue in mammography, the mammography sensitivity decreases. on the other hand, increasing the breast tissue density leads to increased risk of breast cancer. various factors such as inheritance, genetics, hormonal and reproductive factors, and nutriti...

background: a powerful and improved technique, proton induced x-ray emission (pixe) has been performed-yielding the elemental composition of 17 samples of surgically excised malignant and normal tumors of breast tissue. the samples without any further process as thick targets were put on capton foil backing. there are no homogenizing processes. the pixe spectra analysis was performed using he n...

Introduction: N-nitroso-N-methylurea (NMU) is a carcinogen from nitrosamines family, which has been used to induce breast cancer in rodents. This model of breast cancer is very similar to the estrogen dependent breast cancer in human. As a continuation of our recent works, in the present study, the expressions of both p53 and p27 were investigated in NMU-induced breast cancer in Wistar Albin...
