Dead-box or black-box: is DDX1 ...
In this issue of Breast Cancer Research and Treatment, Germain et al. evaluate the potential role of DEAD-box 1 (DDX1) as an independent marker of p ...
Presence of Foxp3 expression in ...
The Forkhead Box Protein 3 is highly expressed not only in regulatory T cells, but also in tumor cells, acting as a transcriptional repressor of bre ...

As pre-existent immunity might be a reflection of an emerging anticancer response, the demonstration of spontaneous T-cell responses against tumor a ...
The value of preoperative stagi ...
Little is known about the benefits of preoperative staging chest computed tomography (CT) in patients with asymptomatic breast cancer. We therefore ...
The TGF-b/Smad pathway induces ...
Transforming growth factor-b (TGF-b) has opposing roles in breast cancer progression by acting as a tumor suppressor in the initial phase, but stimu ...
GRB7 protein over-expression an ...
The growth factor receptor-bound protein-7 gene (GRB7) encodes a multi-domain signal transduction molecule. The purpose of this study was to examine ...
COX2 expression in prognosis an ...
In breast cancer, the prognostic impact of COX2 expression varies widely between studies. We examined the prognostic value of COX2 expression in a ...
Combined Src and ER blockade im ...
Antiestrogen therapies arrest susceptible estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancers by increasing p27. Since Src phosphorylates p27 to promote ...
Let-7 family miRNAs regulate es ...
In order to understand how microRNAs (miRNAs) regulate breast cancer tumorigenesis, a miRNA expression microarray screening was performed using RNA ...

The preferential metastasis of breast cancer cells to bone is a complex set of events including homing and preferential growth which may include uni ...
Nicotine-induced human breast c ...
Previous studies have demonstrated that the persistent exposure of human bronchial epithelial cells to nicotine (Nic) through nicotinic acetylcholin ...
Clinical application of shear w ...
Shear wave elastography (SWE) is an emerging technique which can obtain quantitative elasticity values in breast disease. We therefore evaluated the ...
