Breast Cancer Response to Therapy: Can microRNAs Lead the Way?

abstract：:Since breast cancer and its associated metastasis are a global health problem and a major cause of mortality among women, research efforts to understand the development, morphogenesis, and functioning of the mammary gland are a high priority. Myriad signaling pathways, transcription factors, and associated transcripti...
