Research Abstract |
The activation of proliferative signaling pathways is one of the causes of carcinogenesis and several drugs interfering with these pathways are currently being developed. We evaluated 338 invasive breast cancer patients by focusing attention on six factors, p-AKT, Cyclin D1, P27, p-p70S6K, p-4EBP1 and p-MAPK/ERK, in the signaling pathways. These factors were immunohistologically examined and using those results a new breast cancer classification was devised. The new classification was significantly related to conventional clinicopathological characteristics. This classification reflects the activation status of the signaling pathways and useful for selection of newly developed drugs that interfere with signaling pathways
