## Abstract Breast cancer (BC) is the leading cancer in the world in terms of incidence and mortality in women. However, the mechanism by which BC develops remains largely unknown. The increase in cytosolic free Ca^2+^ can result in different physiological changes including cell growth and death. O

Recent evidence suggested a role for the cell cycle dependent kinases cdc2 and cdk2 in apoptosis. An important mechanism by which many cell types could undergo apoptosis is through the activation of the Fas molecule on the cell membrane. To investigate whether Fas-induced cell death activated cdc2 a
Recent studies have shown that high levels of the apoptosisrelated proteins bcl-2 and bcl-x, increase, while over-expression of bcl-x, or bax decreases, resistance to drugs that induce apoptosis in some human cancer cells. In the present report, we investigated whether expression of these apoptosis-
