Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer death among women worldwide. The vast majority of breast cancers are carcinomas that originate from cells lining the milk-forming ducts of the mammary gland. The molecular subtypes of breast cancer, which are based on the presence or absence of hormone receptors (estrogen and progesterone subtypes) and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2), include: hormone receptor positive and HER2 negative (luminal A subtype), hormone receptor positive and HER2 positive (luminal B subtype), hormone receptor negative and HER2 positive (HER2 positive), and hormone receptor negative and HER2 negative (basal-like or triple-negative breast cancers (TNBCs)). Hormone receptor positive breast cancers are largely driven by the estrogen/ER pathway. In HER2 positive breast tumours, HER2 activates the PI3K/AKT and the RAS/RAF/MAPK pathways, and stimulate cell growth, survival and differentiation. In patients suffering from TNBC, the deregulation of various signalling pathways (Notch, Wnt/beta-catenin, and EGFR) have been confirmed.

DISEASE: Hypoparathyroidism with sensorineural deafness and renal dysplasia
Entry
H01271 Disease
Name
Hypoparathyroidism with sensorineural deafness and renal dysplasia; HDR syndrome; Barakat syndrome
Description
Hypoparathyroidism with sensorineural deafness and renal dysplasia (HDR syndrome) is a DiGeorge-like phenotype that includes hypoparathyroidism, heart defects, immune deficiency, deafness and renal malformations. It has been reported that mutations in GATA3 cause HDR syndrome.
