The Influence of Steroid Hormones and Antihormones on the Growth and Differentiation of Normal Human Breast Cells in Culture

  • Conference paper
Hormonal Carcinogenesis

Abstract

Breast cancer still remains the most frequent cancer in women, occurring in 1 out of 9 women, whereas advances in therapeutics have not led to a decrease in mortality. Only a policy of early screening in high-risk populations and of prevention based on a clear pathophysiological understanding could lead to a decrease in the mortality due to this cancer.
