| Abstract | A biomarker is a quantifiable laboratory measure of a disease specific biologically relevant molecule that can act as an indicator of a current or future disease state. The purpose of this study is to detect the expression of RNA biomarkers using Cytokeratin 19 (CK-19), Mammaglobin (MAM), Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), Mucin (MUC), C-Myc, erb-B2, a proliferation marker (Ki-67), Epidermal growth factor receptor (Her2/neu) and Estrogen receptor (ER) in Iranian women who were diagnosed with breast cancer. In this study, 90 samples; 60 cancer patients and 30 healthy controls were considered. 73.4 % patients were in stage I/II and 26.6 % were in stage III/IV. Patients were selected prior to the administration of any adjuvant systemic therapy. Total RNA extraction was obtained from peripheral blood of each patient and healthy control. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method was used for detection of mRNA of the selected biomarkers of circulating breast cancer cells in blood. Molecular characterization is assessed as a method for early detection of breast cancer. For this purpose, eleven specific primers were selected and RT-PCR was used. The data of RT-PCR revealed that expression of MUC1, CK19, CEA, MAM, erbB-2, Ki67 and C-Myc biomarkers were significantly different between breast cancer patients and healthy controls. On the other hand, ERα, ERβ and Her2 markers were not significantly different between the two mentioned groups. Biomarkers detection of breast cancer patients could be assessed as a diagnostic factor and its potential for conveying as a prognostic factor require further studies, with a larger number of patients. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
