breast cancer, topoisomerase IIα, topoisomerase inhibitors, anthracycline antibioticsAbstract
Topoisomerases are important enzymes that ensure the genomic integrity. It is a target for anthracycline antibiotics which are used in the breast cancer chemotherapy. A series of studies that researched connection between topoisomerase IIα and the sensitivity to chemotherapy with anthracycline antibiotics in patients with breast cancer are considered in the article, however, the predictive value of this marker is still controversial.References
