Abstract: Introduction: Breast cancer is classified into intrinsic molecular subtypes, each relating to predictive prognostic and clinical outcomes. Rapamycin inhibits the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway, which is often deregulated in various types of cancer. mTOR inhibitors are associated with antiproliferation and apoptosis. Aim: Investigating the differential expression of breast cancer signature genes following rapamycin treatment in various breast cancer subtypes.
