Mammary Fat of Breast Cancer: Gene Expression Profiling and Functional Characterization
7 Oct 2014
Abstract excerpt
Mammary fat is the main composition of breast, and is the most probable candidate to affect tumor behavior because the fat produces hormones, growth factors and adipokines, a heterogeneous group of signaling molecules. Gene expression profiling and functional characterization of mammary fat in Chinese women has not been reported. Thus, we collected the mammary fat tissues adjacent to breast tumors from 60...
