The molecular underpinning of lobular histological growth pattern: a genome‐wide transcriptomic analysis of invasive lobular carcinomas and grade‐ and molecular subtype‐matched invasive ductal carcinomas of no special type

Abstract excerpt

Invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) is the most frequent special type of breast cancer. The majority of these tumours are of low histological grade, express hormone receptors, and lack HER2 expression. The pleomorphic variant of ILCs (PLCs) is characterized by atypical cells with pleomorphic nuclei and is reported to have an aggressive clinical behaviour. Expression profiling studies have demonstrated that classic...
