1 9973246 We review many of the molecular events important in the pathogenesis of breast cancer, including inherited abnormalities in BRCA-1 and BRCA-2, p53, ATM, and PTEN and sporadic alterations in growth factors and their receptors, signal transduction, cell cycle control, DNA repair, cell death, angiogenesis, and invasion and metastasis.
2 10030809 Recent advances in molecular biology, however, have shown that hereditary breast cancer may eventuate as a result of mutations on several specific gene loci including BRCA1, BRCA2, ATM gene, PTEN and p53.
3 10030809 Several other less frequently occurring predisposition genes such as the androgen receptor gene (AR), the HNPCC genes and the oestrogen receptor gene may also be involved, but to a lesser extent.
4 10030809 Overall, approximately 5-10% of all breast cancers are thought to involve one of these inherited predisposition genes, with BRCA1 and BRCA2 being responsible for as much as 90% of this group.
