Description
Summary:A brief review of current data on the generality of the epidemiology and molecular pathogenesis of breast cancer and benign breast diseases is presented. Currently, a type of mastopathy, fibrosclerosis/sclerosing adenosis, ac­companied by the formation of microcalcifications, is considered as a benign pathological condition with a high risk of malignancy, and also as a pre-start condition of a possible transition of mastopathy to cancer. In the review is discussed the fundamental biological process of the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) as a molecular pathogenetic basis of this phenomenon. Identification of the above mentioned pathological changes using mam­mography and refined diagnostics using a vacuum aspiration biopsy allow timely treatment of fibrosclerosis and sclerosing adenosis with Indinol® Forto, a drug of pathogenetic action based on indole-3-carbinol, due to its mul­tiple anticancer and oncoprophylactic activity, including ability to reverse at the epigenetic level the EMT process abnormally proceeding in these benign breast diseases.
