Triple-negative breast cancer: biology, pathology, and treatment
Journal Title: Central Asian Journal of Medical and Pharmaceutical Sciences Innovation - Year 2021, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a subtype of breast tumor which comprises 24% of newly diagnosed tumors that lacks hormone receptor expression and HER2 gene amplification. This study illustrated the pathological features of triple negative breast cancer with special reference to the landmark research that molecularly characterize this subtype of breast cancer. Additionally, this article discusses functional problems with arisen in clinical routine as a result of advent genetic expression breast cancer profiling and it's novel prognostic and predictive effects on triple-negative breast cancer pathology. Additionally, histopathological features of triple-negative neoplasms are discussed, emphasizing the critical nature of histologic detection in specific cancer subtypes with a significant effect on clinical results. Notably, emphasis is placed on the emerging clinical frontier represented by immunotherapy, with special emphasis on the implementation of immune checkpoint inhibitors in TNBC therapy and their effect on potential treatments.

Quantitative analysis of p53 substitution mutation and breast cancer; An informative study in Iranian population
Genetic factors, including genetic variations of important genes, may influence breast cancer susceptibility. One of important gene variations is p53 codon 72, which could impact the risk of breast cancer. There are thre...
Correlation of a well-known genetic variation in one carbon metabolism pathway with breast cancer susceptibility in Iranian population
The one carbon metabolism pathway is an important cycle in the cellular reactions. One of a key gene in the mentioned pathway is methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase. This gene contains numerous variations that the rs1801...
