Breast Neoplasms
Tumors or cancer of the human BREAST.
Breast Cancer Lymphedema
Abnormal accumulation of lymph in the arm, shoulder and breast area associated with surgical treatment (e.g., MASTECTOMY) or radiation treatment of breast cancer.
Year introduced: 2017
Unilateral Breast Neoplasms
Tumors or cancer found specifically in one human BREAST, but not in both.
Year introduced: 2016
Triple Negative Breast Neoplasms
Breast neoplasms that do not express ESTROGEN RECEPTORS; PROGESTERONE RECEPTORS; and do not overexpress the NEU RECEPTOR/HER-2 PROTO-ONCOGENE PROTEIN.
Year introduced: 2014
Inflammatory Breast Neoplasms
Metastatic breast cancer characterized by EDEMA and ERYTHEMA of the affected breast due to LYMPHATIC METASTASIS and eventual obstruction of LYMPHATIC VESSELS by the cancer cells.
Year introduced: 2011
BRCA1 Protein
The phosphoprotein encoded by the BRCA1 gene (GENE, BRCA1). It contains an N-terminal RING FINGER DOMAIN and is a PROTEIN PHOSPHATASE 1 regulatory subunit. In normal cells the BRCA1 protein is localized in the nucleus, whereas in the majority of breast cancer cell lines and in malignant pleural effusions from breast cancer patients, it is localized mainly in the cytoplasm. (Science 1995;270(5237):713,789-91)
Year introduced: 1997
CCAR2 protein, human [Supplementary Concept]
don't confuse with Deleted in Bladder Cancer 1(also known as DBC1); RefSeq NM_021174
Date introduced: March 20, 2008
Nuclear Receptor Coactivator 3
A nuclear receptor coactivator with specificity for ESTROGEN RECEPTORS and PROGESTERONE RECEPTORS. It contains a histone acetyltransferase activity that may play a role in CHROMATIN REMODELING during the process of nuclear receptor-induced transcription. The coactivator has been found at elevated levels in certain HORMONE-DEPENDENT NEOPLASMS such as those found in BREAST CANCER.
Year introduced: 2010(1997)
Crk-Associated Substrate Protein
A highly phosphorylated 130 kDa protein that associates with ONCOGENE PROTEIN CRK and ONCOGENE PROTEIN SRC. It undergoes tyrosine PHOSPHORYLATION in signaling pathways that regulate CELL MIGRATION and CELL PROLIFERATION.
Year introduced: 2006(2004)
BRCA2 Protein
A large, nuclear protein, encoded by the BRCA2 gene (GENE, BRCA2). Mutations in this gene predispose humans to breast and ovarian cancer. The BRCA2 protein is an essential component of DNA repair pathways, suppressing the formation of gross chromosomal rearrangements. (from Genes Dev. 2000;14(11):1400-6)
Year introduced: 2002
Breast Neoplasms, Male
Any neoplasms of the male breast. These occur infrequently in males in developed countries, the incidence being about 1% of that in females.
Year introduced: 1995

MDA-MB-231 Cells
A human breast cancer cell line that was derived in 1973 from the MALIGNANT PLEURAL EFFUSION of a patient with stage III BREAST CARCINOMA and was characterized as being of breast cancer origin.
Year introduced: 2023
Brca1 protein, mouse [Supplementary Concept]
RefSeq NM_009764
Date introduced: March 17, 2016
