Breast Cancer in the Setting of HIV
نویسندگان
چکیده
Oncogenesis in immunocompromised patients occurs due to a number of factors including reduced immune surveillance or other viral pathogens. Breast cancer, unlike other non-AIDS-defining cancers, does not appear associated and has rarely been reported. We describe a case with evidence of immune reactivity around the tumor, but not in the tumor itself.

Genetic polymorphisms in the estrogen receptor - α Gene codon 325(CCC}CCG) and risk of breast cancer among Iranian women: a case control study
Abstract Background: The Iranian breast cancer patients are relatively younger than their Western counterparts. Evidence suggests that alterations in estrogen signaling pathways , including estrogen receptor-α (ER- α ), occur during breast cancer development in Caucasians. Epidemiologic studies have revealed that age-incidence patterns of breast cancer in Asians differ from those in Cauca...
متن کاملLYMPH NODE REVEALING SOLUTION: A NEW USEFUL METHOD FOR ISOLATION OF MINUTE AXILLARY LYMPH NODES IN BREAST CANCER
Breast cancer is one of the most common malignancies in the world. The most important prognostic factor in this cancer is the stage of the tumor. Detection of lymph nodes with or without malignancy is essential for determining the stage of the tumor and setting a therapeutic plan. There are different methods for isolating lymph nodes in surgical specimens of breast cancer in the pathology ...
متن کاملAntiproliferative effects of flavonoid fractions from Calendula officinalis flowers in parent and tamoxifen resistant T47D human breast cancer cells
The risk of human breast cancer is concerned to cumulative exposure of the breast cells to endogenous estrogens. Strategies aiming at reducing the production of estrogens may be useful for the prevention of estrogens-related breast cancer. Several natural products with plant origin have the potential value as chemo-preventive or therapeutic agents in cancer. Flavonoids, the natural polyphenol c...

متن کاملپلی مورفیسم rs2228480 در ژن ESR1 و خطر ابتلا به سرطان پستان
Background and Aim: ESR1 gene polymorphism has been found to be associated with breast cancer and clinical features of the disease in Caucasians. Genomic data for ESR1 in either population is therefore of value in the clinical setting for that ethnic group. In this study association of polymorphism in ESR1 gene with breast cancer risk was investigated. Materials and Methods: A case-control stud...

Stable molecular changes during cell division without any change in the sequence of DNA molecules is known as epigenetic. Molecular mechanisms involved in this process, including histone modifications, methylation of DNA, protein complex and RNA antisense. Cancer genome changes happen through a combination of DNA hypermethylation, long-term epigenetic silencing with heterozygosis loss and genom...
