Abstract:
Good progress has been made in the researches on correlating genes of breast cancer in recent years. Quite a few kinds of genes such as susceptibility gene, oncogene and tumor suppressor genes have been found with implications for diagnosis, therapy and prognosis. Abnormality of breast cancer susceptibility gene (BRCA) is of great significance, especially in the development of breast cancer.
