Cytogenetic and molecular studies have suggested that the 3p14.2 chromosome subband contains tumor suppressor genes involved in the pathogenesis of many types of human cancers. Recently, the FHIT (fragile histidine triad) gene was identified in this part of chromosome 3 as a candidate suppressor gen
## Abstract Factor X‐activating activity (FXAA) was determined by a chromogenic assay in normal and malignant breast tissue. FXAA was found in all tissue (__n__ = 38) irrespective of pathology, and the activity of normal tissue was similar to that of tumours. FXAA correlated with tissue hemoglobin
## Abstract 4‐Hydroxyandrostenedione (4‐OHA) is a specific inhibitor of aromatase activity used for the treatment of breast cancer in post‐menopausal women. Treatment with 4‐OHA has been shown to inhibit the peripheral conversion of androstenedione to oestrone and reduce plasma oestrogen concentrat
