Abstract excerpt
Historical data have indicated the potential for the histologically-normal breast to harbor pre-malignant changes at the molecular level. We postulated that a histologically-normal tissue with "tumor-like" gene expression pattern might harbor substantial risk for future cancer development. Genes associated with these high-risk tissues were considered to be "malignancy-risk genes". From a total of 90 breast cancer...
