| 1 | mRNA expression of DOK1-6 in human breast cancer显示文摘AIM:To examine the expression of downstream of tyrosine kinase(DOK)1-6 genes in normal and breast cancer tissue and correlated this with several clinicopathological and prognostic factors.METHODS:DOK1-6 m RNA extraction and reverse transcription were performed on fresh frozen breast cancer tissue samples(n = 112) and normal background breast tissue(n = 31). Tissues were collected between 1991 and 1996 at two centres and all patients underwent mastectomy and ipsilateral axillary node dissection. All tissues were randomly numbered and the details were only made known after all analyses were completed. Transcript levels of expression were determined using real-time polymerase chain reaction and analyzed against TNM stage, tumour grade and clinical outcome over a 10-year follow-up period.RESULTS:DOK-2 and DOK-6 expression decreased with increasing TNM stage. DOK-6 expression decreased with increasing Nottingham Prognostic Index(NPI) [NPI-1 vs NPI-3(mean copy number 15.4 vs 0.22, 95%CI:2.7-27.6, P = 0.018) and NPI-2 vs NPI-3(mean copy number 7.6 vs 0.22, 95%CI:0.1-14.6, P = 0.048)]. After a median follow up period of 10 years, higherlevels of DOK-2 expression were found among patients who remained disease-free compared to those who developed local or distant recurrence(mean copy number 3.94 vs 0.0000096, 95%CI:1.0-6.85, P = 0.0091), and distant recurrence(mean copy number 3.94 vs 0.0025, 95%CI:1.0-6.84, P = 0.0092). Patients who remained disease-free had higher levels of DOK-6 expression compared to those who died from breast cancer.CONCLUSION:Decreasing expression levels of DOK-2 and DOK-6 with increased breast tumour progression supports the notion that DOK-2 and DOK-6 behave as tumour suppressors in human breast cancer. | Tamara Ghanem James Bracken Abdul Kasem Wen G Jiang Kefah Mokbel | 2014 | World Journal of Clinical Oncology2014,5,2: | 3 |

| 3 | Emerging gene-based prognostic tools in early breast cancer: First steps to personalised medicine显示文摘Breast cancer remains a major cause of neoplastic disease in much of the developed world. The majority of cases are diagnosed with oestrogen receptor(ER)-positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 negative invasive ductal carcinoma and are treated predominantly by surgery which includes sentinel node biopsy and adjuvant endocrine therapy ± adjuvant radiotherapy. It is believed that an indeterminate subset of the patient population is needlessly incurring chemotherapy related morbidity without attaining any increase in survival due to therapy. Furthermore in the era of extended adjuvant endocrine therapy it is important to identify those patients who can be safely treated with 5 years rather than 10 years of endocrine therapy thus optimising the benefit-risk balance. This perception has propelled the development of more personalised prognostic tools for newly diagnosed cases of ER-positive breast cancer. In this article, we shall review the evidence regarding the currently available gene assays for human breast cancer. | Umar Wazir Kefah Mokbel | 2014 | World Journal of Clinical Oncology2014,5,5: | 1 |

| 7 | Evolving role of skin sparing mastectomy显示文摘Skin sparing mastectomy(SSM) can facilitate immediate breast reconstruction and is associated with an excellent aesthetic result. The procedure is safe in selected cases; including invasive tumours < 5 cm, multi-centric tumours, ductal carcinoma in situ and for risk-reduction surgery. Inflammatory breast cancers and tumours with extensive involvement of the skin represent contraindications to SSM due to an unacceptable risk of local recurrence. Prior breast irradiation or the need for post-mastectomy radiotherapy do not preclude SSM, however the aesthetic outcome may be compromised. Preservation of the nipple areola complex is safe for peripherally located node negative tumours. An intraoperative frozen section protocol for the retro-areolar tissue should be considered in these cases. The advent of acellular tissue matrix systems has enhanced the scope of implant-based immediate reconstruction following SSM. Cell-assisted fat transfer is emerging as a promising technique to optimise the aesthetic outcome. | Abdul Kasem Kefah Mokbel | 2014 | World Journal of Clinical Oncology2014,5,2: | 0 |
| 8 | Towards optimal management of the axilla in the context of a positive sentinel node biopsy in early breast cancer显示文摘The sentinel lymph node biopsy(SLNB) was initially pioneered for staging melanoma in 1994 and it has been subsequently validated by several trials, and has become the new standard of care for patients with clinically node negative invasive breast cancer. The focussed examination of fewer lymph nodes in addition to improvements in histopathological and molecular analysis has increased the rate at which micrometastases and isolated tumour cells are identified. In this article we review the literature regarding the optimal management of the axilla when the SLNB is positive for metastatic disease based on level 1 evidence derived from randomised clinical trials. | Umar Wazir Aisling Manson Kefah Mokbel | 2014 | World Journal of Clinical Oncology2014,5,5: | 0 |
| 9 | Towards optimal treatment of ductal carcinoma in situ显示文摘Ductal carcinoma in situ(DCIS) is a non-obligate precursor of invasive breast cancer with a variable biological behavior which is difficult to accurately predict using the current clinico-pathological parameters. Randomized controlled trials have demonstrated that adjuvant radiotherapy(RT) reduces the risk of local recurrence after adequate local excision of DCIS. Tamoxifen may be considered as an adjuvant endocrine treatment in patients with high risk estrogen receptor positive disease. There is however a growing consensus that RT can be safely omitted in a subgroup of patients with favorable biological features in order to avoid overtreatment. The sentinel node biopsy is not routinely indicated but should be considered in women undergoing mastectomy for DCIS. The discovery of molecular signatures that accurately predict the biological behavior of this common malignancy will facilitate a personalized treatment approach in the future. | Christina Choy Kefah Mokbel | 2014 | World Journal of Clinical Oncology2014,5,3: | 0 |
