Unveiling potential therapeutic targets for breast cancer recurrence: differentially expressed genes and pathways in post-surgery patients by Hamad, Hamad Ali, Saeed, Hammad Khalaf, Hussein, Talib Hammad, Hussain, Abdalwahab Bdewi, Md Hashim, Nur Fariesha

“…The findings have uncovered key therapeutic targets associated with tumor recurrence through potential ECM-related genes whose overexpression may significantly contribute to tumorigenesis in breast cancer survivors by epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and targeting them may improve the chances of better survival breast cancer patients and increase the quality of life by reducing the chances of recurrence. However, the study is solely bioinformatics-based; therefore, future study will be experimental validations to bring forth these key genes as potential therapeutic targets.…”
