Comparison of tumors with HER2 overexpression versus HER2 amplification in HER2-positive breast cancer patients [PDF]
Abstract Background Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive tumors are defined by protein overexpression (3+) or gene amplification using immunohistochemistry (IHC) or fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), respectively.

Bone metastases of breast cancer: The influence of hormone receptors and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 [PDF]
Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths among women worldwide. While significant progress has been made in the prophylaxis, diagnosis, and management of breast cancer, around 90% of deaths occur due to metastatic disease, which is ...

HER2 and ESR1 mRNA expression levels and response to neoadjuvant trastuzumab plus chemotherapy in patients with primary breast cancer [PDF]
Introduction: Recent data suggest that benefit from trastuzumab and chemotherapy might be related to expression of HER2 and estrogen receptor (ESR1). Therefore, we investigated HER2 and ESR1 mRNA levels in core biopsies of HER2-positive breast carcinomas

Targeting HER2 in breast cancer: new drugs and paradigms on the horizon
About 15–20% of all breast cancers (BCs) are defined human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive, based on the overexpression of HER2 protein and/or amplification of ERBB2 gene.

Calmodulin binds HER2 and modulates HER2 signaling
Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), a member of the ErbB family of receptor tyrosine kinases, has defined roles in neoplastic transformation and tumor progression. Overexpression of HER2 is an adverse prognostic factor in several human neoplasms and, particularly in breast cancer, correlates strongly with a decrease in overall patient ...
