Cytogenetic and molecular biologic alterations in human breast cancer: a review.
Chromosomal and molecular biologic studies of human breast cancer are beginning to provide insight into the basic biology of this important disease. The current state of knowledge of both cytogenetic evaluation and assessment of expression and amplification of cellular oncogenes in breast cancer will be outlined in this brief review.
