Abstract: Breast cancer is a very common type of cancer among female and may be found in some males but that is very rare. When the cells of the breast start to grow uncontrollably then breast cancer is seen. Breast cancer is a very common invasive cancer found in women that affects 1 in 8 women during their lives and second major cause of cancer death after lung cancer. Breast cancer develops from breast tissue, but there are several risk factors which cause this. Several factors like age, obesity, taking birth control pills, drinking alcohol, no children or late motherhood, dense breast may be the factors causing breast cancer. The various types of receptors associated with the pathogenesis of breast cancer and their prospective study is most necessary for the treatment of the disease. The present study discusses the findings with respect to the involvement of different types of receptors in breast cancer disease and more stress is given on triple negative breast cancer (TNBC).
