Clinical aspects of cell death in breast cancer: the polyamine pathway as a new target for treatment.

abstract：:Cancer cells often display chromosomal instability (CIN), a defect that involves loss or rearrangement of the cell's genetic material - chromosomes - during cell division. This process results in the generation of aneuploidy, a deviation from the haploid number of chromosomes, and structural alterations of chromosomes...
