Organ site carcinogenesis: mammary gland. Cancergram ck12

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5428486

The Cancergram covers the occurrence, etiology, and introduction of mammary cancer in both humans and experimental animals. The roles of chemical and physical agents, exogenous and endogenous hormones, viral and infectious agents, individual personal practices, and genetic and constitutional states are all considered under the etiology and induction of tumors. The Cancergram also includes studies of possible mechanisms of carcinogenesis, cancer prevention measures, and immunological, biochemical, physiology, and morphological aspects of carcinogenesis in the breast. General studies of cancer biochemistry, immunology, physiology, or morphology, are included on a selective basis. This Cancergram generally excludes studies of diagnosis, treatment, and pathology of breast cancer, as these topics are covered by Cancergram CT09.
