The genetic determinants for most breast cancer cases remain elusive. However, a mutation in a tumor suppressor gene, such as p53, BRCA1, BRCA2, or ATM, has been determined to be one mechanism of breast carcinogenesis. It has been established that inherited mutations in p53, BRCA1, and BRCA2 signifi

## Abstract __Fat__, a candidate tumor suppressor in __Drosophila__, is a component of Hippo signaling pathway involved in controlling organ size. We found that a βΌ3 Mbp deletion in mouse chromosome 3 caused tumorigenesis of a nonβtumorigenic mammary epithelial cell line. The expression of __Fat4__
## Abstract Suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3), as a key regulator of cytokine signaling, has the potential to modulate numerous cellular processes. Its involvement in inflammatory disease is well established, and there is increasing evidence for a role in breast cancer as a regulator of si
A total of 239 determinations of CEA plasma levels were performed for 83 breast cancer patients during chemotherapy or follow-up. In addition, 137 plasma samples were assayed for interferon levels. Patient clinical status was carefully scored according to objective criteria and recorded at each eval
The etiology of breast cancer has been linked in the past to a number of "macroscopic" events which include the family history of cancer, benign breast disease, reproductive history, exposure to estrogens and diet. The disease itself has been analyzed at different stages and premalignant initiation
