objective: the incidence of breast cancer is approximately one million which makes this cancer one of the most common among women worldwide. breast cancer comprises 7% of the total death rate caused by cancers. several strategies that use tumor-associated antigen (taa) vaccination and early detection of breast cancer are clinically being developed. breast cancer is caused by increased over expr...

abstract introduction: cancer stem cells are a small subpopulation of cells within a tumor which are responsible for maintaining the tumor mass. a number of factors such as oct-4 that govern the fate of adult stem cells also play a role in malignant cell transformation. oct-4 is a key regulator of self-renewal in embryonic stem cells; its expression is potentially correlated with tumorigenesis ...

breast cancer affects iranian women at least one decade younger than their counterparts in othercountries and the incidence of breast fibroadenoma is growing in the last two decades in tehran. thisstudy aimed to compare the ahr levels in premenopausal breast cancer and breast fibroadnemo withappropriate normal groups. possible associations of ahr with lifestyle and reproductive risk factorsand ...

Elevated expression of the drug efflux transporter ABCG2 seems to correlate with multidrug resistance of cancer cells. Specific COX-2 inhibitor celecoxib has been shown to enhance the sensitivity of cancer cells to anticancer drugs. To clarify whether ABCG2 inhibition is involved in the sensitizing effect of celecoxib, we investigated whether the expression of ABCG2 in breast cancer cell lines ...

background & aim:breast cancer is the second most common cancer in women after lung cancer. given that the herbal ingredients are used for centuries to treat cancer,the aim of this study was to determine the cytotoxic effect of hydroalcholic extract from thymus daenesiscelak on mcf-7 cancer cells line. experimental: breast cancer cells mcf-7 and natural fibroblast cells were cultured in dmem me...

Abstract Boswellia has been widely used in traditional medicine for the treatment of different diseases such as cancer in Iran. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the gum methanol extract of Boswellia thurifera on the viability and P53 gene expression of cultured breast cancer cells. The gum methanol extract was obtained in various concentrations using the maceration method. No...

objective: breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in women. cisplatin is a traditional cancer drug commonly used in chemotherapy for killing cancer cells. modulation at the mrna levels of apoptotic related genes often correlate with the sensitivity of various types of cancer cells to chemotherapeutic agents. nanoparticulate drug delivery systems are being developed to effecti...

Breast cancer is a malignant tumor and the most common cancer among American women that starts from cells of the breast. The growth of the size of data exceeds the ability of humans to analyze the data. So we need some intelligent machines that can analyze datasets intelligently for us. We propose a Multi Nominal Logit Model to evaluate correlation between risk factors of breast tumor. Our ...
