Metastasis and carcinoma case studies

Metastasis and carcinoma case studies is a research topic within Pulmonary and Respiratory Medicine. Science Explorer counts 24k research works in it since 1950. 6.9% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.

This cluster of papers focuses on the metastatic behavior, clinicopathological characteristics, molecular profiling, and therapeutic targets of metastatic carcinomas, particularly from lung tumors and breast cancer. It explores the role of GATA3 as a prognostic marker, the use of immunohistochemistry in diagnosis, and the identification of potential therapeutic targets for these aggressive metastatic cancers.
