Understanding Breast Cancer Dynamics Using Gene Expression Profiling: Potential of Gene Expression Profiling for Breast Cancer Prognosis and Classification Jai Prakash Mehta

Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among females, both in incidence and death. As meaningful biological understanding of the disease is confounded by the existence of various molecular groups and sub-groups, the challenge for targeted drug development may lie in understanding the molecular mechanisms of various sub-groups in breast cancer. This book describes the gene expression profiling approach for deeper understanding of the dynamics of breast cancer progression and prognosis.
