Breast cancer intratumour heterogeneity: current status and clinical implications (2018)
Journal Article
Joseph, C., Papadaki, A., Althobiti, M., Alsaleem, M., Aleskandarany, M. A., & Rakha, E. A. (2018). Breast cancer intratumour heterogeneity: current status and clinical implications. Histopathology, 73(5), (717-731). doi:10.1111/his.13642. ISSN 0309-0167

Breast cancer (BC) is a heterogeneous disease that varies in presentation, morphological features, behaviour, and response to therapy. High?throughput molecular profiling studies have revolutionised our understanding of BC heterogeneity, and have dem...

Lymphovascular invasion is strongly related to breast cancer metastasis. However, the underlying mechanisms of lymphovascular invasion and its driver molecules in breast cancer remain to be defined. In this study, we explore differential expression o... Read More about Saccharomyces cerevisiae-like 1 (SEC14L1) is a prognostic factor in breast cancer associated with lymphovascular invasion.
