Recent developments in critical genes in the molecular biology of breast cancer.
The biology of breast cancer is complex, and the increasing knowledge of its molecular biology is having a great impact on the clinical management of this serious condition. This review looks at new findings on the role of various critical genes, including BRCA1, BRCA2, HER2 and p53, in the development of breast cancer and their clinical implications.
