Role of Heat Shock Protein Hsp25/27 in~the~Metastatic Spread of Cancer Cells

  • Chapter
Heat Shock Proteins in Cancer

Part of the book series: Heat Shock Proteins ((HESP,volume 2))

Abstract

An estimated 1.15 million new cases of invasive breast cancer occurred in women worldwide in the year 2002 accounting with 410,712 new deaths. The 5-year relative survival rate for localized breast cancer (cancer that has not spread to lymph nodes or other locations outside the breast) has increased from 72% in the 1940s to 97% today. However, the survival rate is lower (79%) in patients with regional spread while for women with distant metastases, the rate is 23% (cancer expected to occur in women in the United States in the year 2004). In this ultimate stage of malignant transformation, the tumors become resistant to most therapies, and the disease is almost incurable. Therefore, therapeutic interventions designed to inhibit metastatic spread of cancer cells are critical. This chapter will briefly cover recent advances in the study of tumor metastasis and the important role played by heat shock protein 25/27
