Abstract

In this second part of the two-part review of breast cancer biomarkers and molecular medicine, the first section will consider additional breast cancer prognostic factors, Including oncogenes, tumor suppressor genes, cell adhesion molecules, Invasion-associated proteins and proteases, hormone receptor proteins, drug resistance proteins, apoptosis regulators, transcription factors, telomerase, DNA repair and methylation and transcriptional profiling using high-density genomic microarrays. The second section will consider the prediction of therapy response using the techniques of pharmacogenetics and pharmacogenomics.
