Abstract
Breast cancer kills hundreds of thousands of people every year. Rapid progress over the past two decades has increased our understanding of the genetic and environmental risk factors for disease. It has also shed light on drivers of tumor progression and the molecular landscape underpinning tumor heterogeneity, as well as the role of the microenvironment and the immune system. These strides forward should lead to more effective and tailored therapies for early- and late-stage patients.
期刊介绍:
Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine is a monthly online publication comprising reviews on different aspects of a variety of diseases, covering everything from the molecular and cellular bases of disease to translational medicine and new therapeutic strategies.
Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine is thus unmatched in its depth of coverage and represents an essential source where readers can find informed surveys and critical discussion of advances in molecular medicine.
