3. Breast cancer ocure with involves genetic alterations of epithelial cell DNA, resulting in progressively more invasive and malignant somatic cells. This disease is clearly the result of a complex, poorly understood multistep cancerogenecity process.

6. Risk Factors for Breast Cancer Multiple factors are associat ed with an increase d risk of developi ng breast cancer, including increasin g age, family history, exposur e to female reproduc tive hormone s (both endogen ous and exogeno us), dietary factors, benign breast disease, and environ mental factors Risk Factors for Breast Cancer: Risk Factors for Breast Cancer: Factors are increased risk : * Increasing age, * Family history, * Exposure to female reproductive hormones ( both endogenous and exogenous ), * Dietary factors, * Benign breast disease * Environmental factors

9. Women with a late first pregnancy have a higher risk.Exagenous hormones (DES) increases the risk. Oral Contraceptive? Post menopausal estrogen replacement may affect the incidence of B.C.in a dose relatedfashion. Lactation may reduced risk of premenopausal B.C. Increase the Risk: * Benign Breast diseases * Previous breast biopsy * Previous breast surgery * Fibrocystic disease ?

10. Women with a late first pregnancy have a higher risk.Exagenous hormones (DES) increases the risk. Oral Contraceptive? Post menopausal estrogen replacement may affect the incidence of B.C.in a dose relatedfashion. Lactation may reduced risk of premenopausal B.C. Increase the Risk: * Prior treatment for cancer * Oncogenes * Growth factors

Endocrine factor

16. Endocrine factors: * Hormonal regulation of the breast is important in the development of breast cancer. * Early pregnancy and Oophorectomy lower the incedence. * Late menopause and early menarche increase the incidence. * Nulliparous women have a higher risk.

17. Alcohol: increase the risk of breast cancers. An association between alcohol consumption and breast cancer.

18. Famelial Breast Cancer Cancer

20. Woman with a first degree relative with breast cancer is about two to three times more likely to develop the disease then a woman with a negative family history.

21. Three subgroups with different risks of B.C. 1-Turly hereditary 5-8% Younger, bilateral and other tumors. 2-Intermediate risk Early first menstrual, fat body. 3-The risk is identical to general population.

22. Diet: High dietary fat intake Low soy High caloric intake Obesity Potentially protective dietary factors include the intake of vitamins A, C, & E. Beta carotene and high fiber diet have redused the risk of Breast Cancer.

23. Genetic alterations BRCA1 (17) P53 gene (17) BRCA2 (13)

25. BRCA1 (17) Autosomal dominant. Suppressor P 1863 amino acids. Tumor suppressor gene. Familial breast and ovarian cancer. 63% risk of ovarian cancer. 85% risk of breast cancer.

26. BRCA2 (13) Tumor suppressor gene 87% risk of breast cancer.

27. P53 -Tumor suppressor gene -Role in: DNA replication. Transcription. Cell cycle control. -Inhibits transformation of cells by myc and ras.

28. Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Syndrome Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. * Mutation of the BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes * The lifetime risk of breast cancer was 87% by age 70. * The cumulative risk of Ovarian cancer was 44% by age 70. * The relative Risk of colon cancer4.11 and * Prostate cancer 3.33 (RR)

29. Family history and risk of breast cancer Relative risk estimate (95 percent CI) Any family history1.9 (1.7-2.0) Degree of relatedness: First degree (mother, sibling, child)2.1 (2.0-2.2) Second degree (grandmother, aunt)1.5 (1.4-1.6) Number of relatives: One first degree2.1 (2.0-2.2) Two first degree3.6 (2.5-5.0) Age of relatives breast cancer : First degree relative <502.3 (2.2-2.5) First degree relative >501.8 (1.6-2.0) First degree relative with bilateral breast cancer 9.8 (4.0-24.9) First degree relative with ovarian cancer 1.27 (0.91-1.77)
