Found, the molecules that Indicate the spread of breast cancer

A team of scientists in Queensland, Australia, has identified a key molecule that indicates whether breast cancer will spread in a woman and how fast.

QIMR researchers Berghofer said team, the molecule is lost on most of the aggressive cancer, giving physicians a valuable diagnostic tool again.

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women, the chances of his recovery depends on when the cancer is diagnosed and how fast the cancer that spread to other body organs.

QIMR Berghofer spokesman, Dr Nicole Cloonan, said, these findings will help give a clearer prognosis for breast cancer patients.

He also said, hopefully this will pave the way for better treatment for aggressive cancers such as cancer of the liver, stomach, skin and brain.

"It is such a small fragment of the gene," he said.

Fragments found were operating as a mobile emergency brakes and ensure the cells can reproduce and make sure everything remains under control.

"But when fragments of it no longer exists, then cells start to become uncontrollably and an aggressive cancer became available."

Dr. Cloonan says, it's very important to beat breast cancer.

"In most breast cancer, we know that women don't die of cancer," he said.

"But when the cancer spread to other parts of the body, the result is very bad."

Allegedly, after identifying these genes, scientists can identify with hopefully better cancer-cancer that might be spread quickly.

Dr. Cloonan says, this means, patients also did not require too much care, if they are not very aggressive cancer.

The research was published in the RNA, The Journal's website.
