Abstract:
There are multiple genes involved in the progress of evolution in breast cancer.Recent study showed that Twist gene may play key role in promoting tumor growth,invasion and metastasis through the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT).Other studies also demonstrated that Twist gene expression maybe associated with patient outcomes and guiding clinical tailored therapies.
