Gene-gene interactions in breast cancer susceptibility
Through mutational analyses in many individuals, four interactions (defined as departures from a multiplicative model) have been described between mutations in the breast cancer susceptibility genes ATM and CHEK2 with BRCA1 and BRCA2.
The interactions are such that the resultant risk of breast cancer is lower than the multiplicative (...)

Definition: Invasive lobular carcinoma shows single file infiltrative neoplastic cells, which are negative for E-cadherin and shows cytoplasmic p120 cadherin as opposed to surface p120.
The lesion usually presents as a palpable mass, and mammography (...) -

18 November 2010Invasive ductal carcinomas of the breast; mammary invasive ductal carcinoma; mammary infiltrative ductal carcinoma; mammary infiltrating ductal carcinoma; IDC
Definition: Invasive ductal carcinoma has malignant infiltrating glands with a desmoplastic stroma, and is negative for myoepithelial cell markers, such as p63 and SMA. It is graded by the Nottingham grading system, which depends on tubule formation, nuclear pleomorphism, and mitotic count.
