Breast cancers can be identified by specific molecular subtypes based on gene expression within the cancer cells. The most common genes investigated for molecular subtyping of breast cancer are the estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR), which are together classified as hormone receptor (HR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER2), a protein that helps breast cancers grow. There are four major subtypes HR+/Her2- , HR-/HER2- (also known as triple negative breast cancer), HR+/HER2+, and HR-/HER2+.
Human solid tumors, like breast cancers, represent a heterogeneous group of diseases that is best demonstrated through many differences in clinical outcomes within homogenously treated patie...
Changes in transcriptional regulation are thought to be one of the key drivers of carcinogenesis. Although next-generation sequencer revolutionized transcriptome analysis, there are limitati...
