Title: Aging Impacts Transcriptome but not Genome of Hormone-dependentBreast Cancers

Journal Article · · Breast Cancer Research
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1186/bcr1765· OSTI ID:918682

Age is one of the most important risk factors for human malignancies, including breast cancer; in addition, age-at-diagnosis has been shown to be an independent indicator of breast cancer prognosis. However, except for inherited forms of breast cancer, there is little genetic or epigenetic understanding of the biological basis linking aging with sporadic breast cancer incidence and its clinical behavior.
