Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the role of β-hCG in breast cancer, particularly in Breast Invasive Carcinoma (BRCA), assessing its gene expression and implications for clinical outcomes.
- Data from various gene expression databases and laboratory techniques were used to analyze β-hCG levels, particularly focusing on its connection to BRCA1 mutations and immune cell presence in tumors.
- Results indicate that β-hCG is upregulated in breast cancers with BRCA1 mutations, suggesting it could serve as a potential target for treatment in BRCA1-deficient patients.
Background: Breast cancer represents one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Apart from genetic factors, the sex hormone estrogen plays a pivotal role in breast cancer development. We are exposed to a plethora of estrogen mimics on a daily basis via various routes.
