Despite advances in the genomic classification of breast cancer, current clinical tests and treatment decisions are commonly based on protein-level information. Nowadays breast cancer clinical treatment selection is based on the immunohistochemical (IHC) determination of four protein biomarkers: Estrogen Receptor 1 (ESR1), Progesterone Receptor (PGR), Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2), and proliferation marker Ki-67. The prognostic correlation of tumor-infiltrating T cells has been widely studied in breast cancer, but tumor-infiltrating B cells have not received so much attention.

However, like any other diagnostic and therapeutic method, ERCP carries the risk of unwanted complications.
Material And Methods: We retrospectively followed patients who underwent ERCP examinations from January 2013 to April 2023.
Peripheral blood CD8 T lymphocytes play a crucial role in cell-mediated immunity and tumor-related immune responses in breast cancer. In this study, label-free quantification analysis and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) of CD8 T lymphocytes in the peripheral blood of benign patients and patients with different breast cancer (BC) subtypes, i.e.
