- 1From: Breast Cancer Research and Treatment. (Vol. 123, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedIntroduction Surgical treatment is a fundamental aspect in the proper management of breast cancer. It is not only the mainstay of loco-regional treatment, but it also allows disease staging and optimization of...
- 2From: Breast Cancer Research and Treatment. (Vol. 123, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedTo the Editor Failures to repair DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) inevitably result in the accumulation of mutations and may lead to genome instability and consequently to an elevated risk of cancer. The RAD50 gene...
- 3From: Breast Cancer Research and Treatment. (Vol. 123, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedBreast surgery in young women is associated with a significant impact on the patient's health-related quality of life due to changes in body image and sexuality. These perceptions are being increasingly considered as...
- 4From: Breast Cancer Research and Treatment. (Vol. 123, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedNBS1 gene plays an important role in DNA repair. Many epidemiological studies have investigated the association between NBS1 8360G > C polymorphism and breast cancer, however, the results are still controversial....
- 5From: Breast Cancer Research and Treatment. (Vol. 123, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedExposure to extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMF) has been suggested to increase female breast cancer risk; however, the data have been inconclusive. In order to derive a more precise estimation of...
- 6From: Breast Cancer Research and Treatment. (Vol. 123, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedThe Faslodex Investigation of Dose evaluation in Estrogen Receptor-positive advanced breast cancer (FINDER)2 study evaluated the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of three fulvestrant dosing regimens. FINDER2...

BRCA2 N372H polymorphism and breast cancer susceptibility: a meta-analysis involving 44,903 subjects
Published data on the association between BRCA2 N372H polymorphism and breast cancer risk are inconclusive. To derive a more precise estimation of the relationship, a meta-analysis was performed. Crude ORs with 95% CIs... - 8From: Breast Cancer Research and Treatment. (Vol. 123, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedRecent evidence suggests that the incidence of local breast tumor recurrences and failures may be substantially lower than previously thought due to the widespread use of systemic adjuvant therapy and loco-regional...
- 9From: Breast Cancer Research and Treatment. (Vol. 123, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedRecent pre-clinical models suggest that radiation can promote tumor aggressiveness. We hypothesized that if this were occurring clinically, locoregional recurrences (LRRs) after postmastectomy radiation therapy (PMRT)...
- 10From: Breast Cancer Research and Treatment. (Vol. 123, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedEndothelin-1 (ET-1) and endothelin A receptor (ETAR) contribute to the development and progression of breast carcinomas by modulating cell proliferation, angiogenesis, and anti-apoptosis. We investigated antitumoral...
- 11From: Breast Cancer Research and Treatment. (Vol. 123, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedFew studies have considered the joint association of body mass index (BMI) and physical activity, two modifiable factors, with all-cause mortality after breast cancer diagnosis. Women diagnosed with invasive breast...
- 12From: Breast Cancer Research and Treatment. (Vol. 123, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedIntroduction Breast cancer is a heterogeneous group of tumors with similar diagnostic, but different prognostic profiles that can be subdivided on the basis of histopathological features, genetic alterations, and...
- 13From: Breast Cancer Research and Treatment. (Vol. 123, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedIntroduction Primary or neoadjuvant chemotherapy was initially developed for the management of young women with breast cancer for whom surgery, either radical or conservation, was not appropriate, offering the...
- 14From: Breast Cancer Research and Treatment. (Vol. 123, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedThe proportion of women who are of childbearing age or pregnant seems to be increasing, probably due to delayed age at first pregnancy. Both clinical situations require special attention and participation of a...
- 15From: Breast Cancer Research and Treatment. (Vol. 123, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedGiven the greatly elevated risks of contralateral breast cancer (CBC) observed in breast cancer patients who carry mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2, it is critical to determine the effectiveness of standard adjuvant...
- 16From: Breast Cancer Research and Treatment. (Vol. 123, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedAMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is recognized as a master regulator of energy homeostasis. In concert with the AMPK-kinase LKB1, it has been shown to provide a molecular link between obesity and postmenopausal...
- 17From: Breast Cancer Research and Treatment. (Vol. 123, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedIntroduction Breast cancer in young women deserves special consideration as there are complex issues raised by a cancer diagnosis at a young age. Breast cancer in these women may present differently to breast cancer...
- 18From: Breast Cancer Research and Treatment. (Vol. 123, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedCD200 has been characterized as an important immunoregulatory molecule, increased expression of which can lead to decreased transplant rejection, autoimmunity, and allergic disease. Elevated CD200 expression has been...
- 19From: Breast Cancer Research and Treatment. (Vol. 123, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedIntroduction Approximately 25% of breast cancers occur in premenopausal women, and 15% occur in women younger than 45 years of age [1]. As the average age of first pregnancy is rising, the percentage of women...
- 20From: Breast Cancer Research and Treatment. (Vol. 123, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedRecent advances in the study of the tumor microenvironment have revealed significant interaction between tumor cells and their surrounding stroma in model systems. We have previously shown that two distinct stromal...
