Identifying this new Gene could open doors for treatment...this new finding further proves how much we need to discover the role of genes
in bc and recurrance - this could explain why some bc patients do well
without chemo depending on their genes. There is much to be understood
and learning how bc will respond to treatment - there are so many changes that take place in bc cells - let's hopet his new gene will help
hit the target....
Each day we get a little bit closer.....
