Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease with considerable variability in clinical outcome, the prognosis and management of which is largely based on histopathological features accompanied by established markers of hormone receptor status, oestrogen and progesterone receptors (oestrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR)), and HER-2 amplification (Sorlie et al, 2001; Goldhirsch et al, 2007). Here, PGR is linked to breast cancer.
