Abstract:Triple negative breast cancers (TNBCs) represent 15-20% of all breast cancers and are often associated with a poor prognosis. The lack of targeted therapies for TNBCs contributes to higher mortality rates. Therefore, there is a need to identify survival pathways that may be targeted in TNBCs. Aberrations in the Phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) and Mitogen Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) pathways have been linked to increased breast cancer proliferation and survival. It has been proposed that these survival cha… Show more
