Cancer of the breast in pregnancy
1Loyola University Medical Center, Maywood, Illinois.
Abstract:
Contrary to common belief, pregnancy does not stimulate the growth of breast cancer. Thus, no justification exists for therapeutic abortion. Generally, treatment should not be altered or delayed because of pregnancy. If the patient so desires, she should be allowed to become pregnant but should be delayed for at least 2 years. The management of breast cancer in pregnancy should involve a team approach, including a breast surgeon, obstetrician, breast counselor, medical oncologist, and radiotherapist.

Tumor Progression
Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...

Cancer-Critical Genes II: Tumor Suppressor Genes
When the function of certain critical genes, especially those involved in cell cycle regulation and cell growth signaling cascades, gets disrupted, it upsets the cell cycle progression. Such cells with unchecked cell cycles start proliferating uncontrollably and eventually develop into tumors.
Such genes that act...
