Chromosomal Aberrations in Breast Cancer Patients in West Bengal, India
Breast cancer is the most frequent malignancy among women. Since genetic factors such as BRCA1 and BRCA2 as well as reproductive history constitute 30% of the cause, environmental exposure may play a significant role in the development of breast cancer. Likewise, the relevant enzymes involved in the biotransformation of xenobiotics (from tobacco smoke, diet or other environmental sources) might...
متن کاملGenomic aberrations in young and elderly breast cancer patients
BACKGROUND Age at breast cancer diagnosis is a known prognostic factor. Previously, several groups including ours have shown that young age at diagnosis is associated with higher prevalence of basal-like tumors and aggressive tumor phenotypes. Yet the impact of age at diagnosis on the genomic landscape of breast cancer remains unclear. In this study, we examined the pattern of somatic mutations...
متن کاملTranscriptional consequences of genomic structural aberrations in breast cancer.
Using a long-span, paired-end deep sequencing strategy, we have comprehensively identified cancer genome rearrangements in eight breast cancer genomes. Herein, we show that 40%-54% of these structural genomic rearrangements result in different forms of fusion transcripts and that 44% are potentially translated. We find that single segmental tandem duplication spanning several genes is a major s...
متن کاملBreast Cancer in Men
Male breast cancer is one of the rare malignancies. Clinically it usually a fixed mass in the breast in the seventh decade of life. Metabolic disorders and gynecomastia and Klinefelter's syndrome are important predisr,osing factors. Primary management is simple mastectomy plus regio:ial lymph node irradiation. In late cases or metastatic disease, orchidectomy, adrenalectomy, and hypophysec...
متن کاملGenomic and transcriptional aberrations linked to breast cancer pathophysiologies.
This study explores the roles of genome copy number abnormalities (CNAs) in breast cancer pathophysiology by identifying associations between recurrent CNAs, gene expression, and clinical outcome in a set of aggressively treated early-stage breast tumors. It shows that the recurrent CNAs differ between tumor subtypes defined by expression pattern and that stratification of patients according to...
