Role of PI3K/AKT/mTOR Signaling Pathways in Breast Cancer
Abstract: Abstract: Breast cancer is among the most commonly diagnosed cancers and remains a leading cause of mortality among women globally. Although early detection and interventions aimed at curtailing tumor progression have significantly improved breast cancer survival rates, there is an ongoing demand for more potent systemic therapies to effectively prevent metastasis. A central pathway frequently associated with the growth, survival, and motility of breast cancer cells is the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling …

Lipid Peroxidation in Postoperative Cases of Breast Carcinoma (Grade III)
Abstract: Breast cancer represents significant problem in the world. Oxidative modification of lipids is catalyzed by reactive oxygen species (ROS) which is known as lipid peroxidation (LPO); this changes the fluidity, permeability of membrane, cellular metabolic functions and causes derangement. Malondialdehyde (MDA) is a major end product and an index of LPO which crosslinks DNA, protein and nucleotides on the same and opposite strands. There are reports that LPO increased in …

An Investigation of Paget Disease for Finding Epithelium in the Cell Tissue for Breast and Nipple Eczema
Abstract: Breast disease is a type of cancer that can manifest externally as eczema with changes in the skin surrounding breast nipple. Sir James Paget identified this disease for the first time in 1874 as a rare condition responsible for 1–4.3% of all breast cancers. The disease also seems benign in it, confined to the skin and is sometimes ignored even if it indicates a symptom of latent breast cancer. Paget's …

Phyto-Entrapped Carbon Dots as Emerging Nanomaterials for Anti-Cancer Activity
Abstract: Phytoconstituent-loaded carbon dots (C-dots) represent an innovative approach in targeted cancer therapy, combining the therapeutic power of plant-derived compounds with the advanced capabilities of nanotechnology. These ultra-small, biocompatible nanostructures offer excellent fluorescence, tunable surface chemistry, and low toxicity, making them ideal for drug delivery, bioimaging, and theranostic applications. Traditional phytochemicals often face challenges like poor solubility, low bioavailability, and high first-pass metabolism barriers that C-dots help overcome. C-dots synthesized through …

Non -Invasive Ways to Detect Cancer
Abstract: Cancer is a diverse group of diseases characterized by uncontrolled cell growth and division, affecting millions worldwide and being a leading cause of death. The disease typically involves genetic alterations that disrupt the normal balance of cell growth, leading to the formation of tumors. Tumors can be benign, posing no threat as they do not spread, or malignant, capable of invading nearby tissues and metastasizing. There are more than 100 …

Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice Regarding Breast Cancer and Its Prevention Among Adolescent School-Going Girls
Abstract: Introduction: Breast cancer claims the lives of over 500,000 women globally each year. In low-resource settings, most women are diagnosed at an advanced stage of the disease, resulting in low 5-year survival rates, typically ranging between 10 and 40%. However, in regions where early detection and basic treatment are both available and accessible, the 5-year survival rate for early-stage localized breast cancer can exceed 80%. Objectives of the Study: The …

Visualization of genomic sequence in BRCA1 and BRCA2
Abstract: Heredity is the main reason of breast cancer in women and mutation or genetic variations also another reason for the spread of breast cancer. Heredity and genetic variations are responsible 5%-10%, 30%-50% respectively. There are 90% chances of developing neoplasm by the mutations. The effect of BRCA1 and BRCA2 may leads to the variations in DNA therefore it should be in limited amounts so that there will be minimum changes …

Carcinoma Ovary Metastasis to Breast
Abstract: Ovarian cancer commonly metastasises to lymph nodes, lung and liver. Primary ovarian carcinoma metastasising to breast is a very unusual and very few cases are described. Literature reports only 39 cases till date. Most common histological variety of Primary ovarian cancer metastasising to breast is papillary serous adenocarcinoma. Metastasis to breast suggests distant spread of the tumour and hence poor prognosis with median age of survival being 6 months from …
