Abstract

The molecular mechanisms underlying the development of breast cancer in general, and estrogen-associated breast carcinogenesis in particular, are not completely understood. There are three mechanisms considered responsible for the carcinogenicity of estrogens in the human breast: (i) receptor-mediated hormonal activity, which stimulates cellular proliferation, resulting in more opportunities for accumulation of the genetic damage that leads to carcinogenesis; (ii) a cytochrome P450-mediated metabolic activation, which elicits direct genotoxic effects by increasing mutation rates; and (iii) the induction of aneuploidy by estrogen. In this article, we concentrate on discussing the role of estrogen receptors and the metabolic activation of 17beta-estradiol (E(2)) as mechanisms of breast cancer initiation.

Carcinoma, Lobular

Lobular carcinoma is an invasive type of breast cancer in which lobules, areas of the breast that produce milk, undergo malignant transformation. Here is the latest research.

Carcinoma, Ductal

Ductal carcinoma is a malignant neoplasm involving the ductal systems of any of a number of organs, such as the mammary glands, pancreas, prostate or lacrimal gland. Discover the latest research on ductal carcinoma here.

Cancer Metabolism

In order for cancer cells to maintain rapid, uncontrolled cell proliferation, they must acquire a source of energy. Cancer cells acquire metabolic energy from their surrounding environment and utilize the host cell nutrients to do so. Here is the latest research on cancer metabolism.
