Metastatic canine mammary carcinomas can be identified by a gene expression profile that partly overlaps with human breast cancer profiles
9 Nov 2010
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Similar to human breast cancer mammary tumors of the female dog are commonly associated with a fatal outcome due to the development of distant metastases. However, the molecular defects leading to metastasis are largely unknown and the value of canine mammary carcinoma as a model for human breast cancer is unclear. In this study, we analyzed the gene expression signatures associated with mammary tumor...
