1.2.1 T categories for breast cancer
T2: Tumour is more than 2 cm but not more than 5 cm (2 inches) across.
T4 (includes T4a, T4b, T4c, and T4d): Tumour of any size growing into
the chest wall or skin. This includes inflammatory breast cancer.
2
The abbreviation "I +" means that a small number of cancer
cells (called isolated tumour cells). N0(mol+): Traces of cancer cells
were detected using a technique called RTPCR. N1: Cancer has spread
to 1 to 3 axillary (underarm) lymph node(s), and/or cancer is found in
internal mammary lymph nodes (those near the breast bone) on sentinel
lymph node biopsy. N1mi: The areas of cancer spread in the lymph
nodes are at least 0.2mm across, but not larger than 2mm.
N1a: Cancer has spread to 1 to 3 lymph nodes under the arm with at
least one area of cancer spread greater than 2 mm across.
N1b: Cancer has spread to internal mammary lymph nodes on the same
side as the cancer N1c: Both N1a and N1b apply.
N2: Cancer has spread to 4 to 9 lymph nodes under the arm, or cancer
has enlarged the internal mammary lymph nodes.
N2a: Cancer has spread to 4 to 9 lymph nodes under the arm, with at
least one area of cancer spread larger than 2 mm.
N2b: Cancer has spread to one or more internal mammary lymph
nodes, causing them to become enlarged.
N3: Any of the following:
N3a: either: Cancer has spread to 10 or more axillary lymph nodes,
with at least one area of cancer spread greater than 2 mm,
N3b: either: Cancer is found in at least one axillary lymph node (with
at least one area of cancer spread greater than 2 mm) and has enlarged
the internal mammary lymph nodes,
N3c: Cancer has spread to the lymph nodes above the collarbone
(supraclavicular nodes) on the same side of the cancer with at least one
area of cancer spread greater than 2 mm.

1.2.3 M categories for breast cancer
M followed by a 0 or 1 indicates whether the cancer has spread to
distant organs -- for example, the lungs, liver, or bones.
M0: No distant spread is found on x-rays (or other imaging tests) or by
physical exam. [4]
M0(I +): Small numbers of cancer cells are found in blood or bone
marrow (found only by special tests)
M1: Cancer has spread to distant organs (most often to the bones, lungs,
brain, or liver) as imaging tests or by physical exam, and/or a biopsy of
one of these areas proves cancer has larger than 0.2mm.
1.3 TREATMENT

1.3.1 Surgery
5
Moreover, most patients who receive radiation and systemic
treatment after SLNB have negative lymph nodes as these treatments
are sufficient in eliminating residual tumour cells.
1.3.2 Radiotherapy
7
Additional techniques can be used to reduce the radiation
exposure to the heart, lungs, and normal tissue such as prone
positioning, respiratory control, or intensity-modulated radiotherapy.
Advanced invasive BC can exhibit radiation therapy resistance.
1.3.3 Chemotherapy

Chitosan in Biocatalysis
22
Surface modification of CSNPs enhances their tumour-
targeting ability through different mechanisms such as a receptor or
carrier-mediated transcytosis. CSNPs were more effective than PLGA
NPs because they targeted MCF-7 cells. Modification of chitosan can
use variations in molecular weight and the level of acetylation, which
will provide different properties according to the needs of the drug
delivery system. Chitosan can be used as a solubility-enhancing
polymer backbone.
Drug Carrier
24
An effective approach to overcome this critical issue is the
development of targeted drug delivery systems that release the drugs or
bioactive agents at the desired site of action. This could increase patient
compliance and therapeutic efficacy of pharmaceutical agents through
improved pharmacokinetic- is and biodistribution.

The present review collects the information about relations
between the molecular weight of hyaluronic acid and its original
properties. Particular emphasis is placed on the structural, physical and
physio-chemical properties of hyaluronic acid in water solutions, as
well as their degradability.
2.7 DOXORUBICIN
29
Although the cellular substrates recognized by the DCAF13
have not been fully uncovered, a series of recent studies indicate that
DCAF13 regulates a few biological processes by targeting some key
players for polyubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. In human
embryos, DCAF13 is expressed from eight‐cell stage to morula stage
and the knockout of DCAF13 leads to preimplantation lethality.
Interestingly, the H3K9 trimethylation levels are dramatically elevated
in DCAF13‐null embryos. H3K9 trimethylation is a key barrier to gene
expression reprogramming in early embryo development.
Mechanistically, DCAF13 recognizes SUV39H1, a H3K9 methyl
transferase, and targets it for polyubiquitination and proteasomal
degradation, thus promoting H3K9 trimethylation removal. In oocytes,
DCAF13 was identified as a nucleolar protein and an important
component of the rRNA‐processing complex. [22]
30
Besides hepatocellular carcinoma, DCAF13 was also
shown to be of prognostic value in lung adenocarcinoma. In the present
study, we show that DCAF13 is aberrantly overexpressed in human
breast cancer. Further analysis shows that DCAF13 promotes
epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) in breast cells, whereas it
does not have significant impact on breast cell proliferation, cell cycle
progression and apoptosis.

3.3 Preparation of chitosan nanoparticles
Dried banana peel was made into powder and 20 ml of water was added
in 0.2 g of banana peel powder & was kept in stirrer for 1 1/2 hour.
After that 0.2 g of CS NP was added and kept in stirrer for 1 hour.
Then it was sonicated for 30 minutes and stored in -200C.

Porosity and density analysis
Swelling studies
In order to study the swelling studies, MA-GG-SS of
0.05 g was immersed in different pH buffer medium (4, 7.4 and 9) at
temperature 25 °C until a swelling equilibrium was attained. Samples
were placed in swelling solution and the weight of swollen samples was
measured against time after the excess surface water was removed by
filter paper.
The degree of swelling was defined as volume of hybrid
polymer before and after swelling at time t and calculated using
following formula.
Swelling ratio % = Wt. – Wo × 100 ÷ Wo
Where,
Wt. - Mass of swollen sample,
Wo - Mass of initial sample, respectively.

DOX release from BF-HA-CS scaffold
DOX@BF-HA-CS scaffolds were dialyzed against 30 mL
phosphate buffer solutions of different pH and in presence and absence
of GSH and incubated at 37 °C with stirring.
At specific time interval, 5 mL of solution was taken at
every time interval for investigation. Simultaneously, 5 mL of fresh
buffer solution was replaced to maintain the solution quantity and
identical pH value.
The amount of DOX release was analysed using a UV–vis
spectroscopy at 360 nm. FITC@ BF-HA-CS scaffolds were done by the
same method to check the release the fluorescence by
photoluminescence study.

Density calculations indicated that density was decreased
with increased concentration of HA-CS. Banana fiber had the highest
density (1.45g/cm3). But with increased concentration of HA-CS (2%
and 5%) in the final sample (F1, F2 respectively) the density was
decreased respectively.
Calculated porosity from density values indicates F2 sample
with 5% HA-CS have the highest porosity of 99.819%, while only
banana Fiber have a very less porosity of 78.221%.
This indicates that the porosity of our scaffold depends on
the amount of HA-CS. HA-CS makes the scaffold more porous which
will be helpful for breast cancer drug delivery because pores will
facilitate cell distribution, integration with the host tissue and capillary
in growth.

FTIR spectrophotometer was used to obtain IR spectra to
analysis the change in functional group. Fig. shows IR spectra of CS,
HA, HA-CS, BF, F1, F2 scaffolds. A peak at 3500 to 3700 cm−1 was
observed for the main functional group of chitosan and is due to the O-
H group of stretching vibrations.
The presence of peaks at 1600 cm−1 is due to the N-H
bending vibration of amino (−NH2) group and C-H bending vibration
of the alkyl group. The peaks at 1200 to 800 cm−1 are recognized due
to the stretching vibration of C-O-C bridges and assigned to
glucopyranose ring in chitosan matrix. (Saharan et al.,2006). HA
showed an intense band at 2000 cm-1 corresponding to C-O stretching.
3000 cm−1, 2500 cm−1 for amide secondary N-H bonding.
Similarly in case of the FTIR spectrum of HA-CS, the peak
at 3000-2800 cm−1 confirmed the presence of HA and peak at 1200-800
cm−1 confirmed the presence of CS. The Banana fiber (BF) showed a
typical cellulose fingerprint at the region 1000-1500 cm−1 associated
with complex vibration associated with C–O, C–C stretching.
In case of BF O–H stretching is evident at 3400 cm−1 and
C–H stretching in methyl and methylene group is seen around 2900
cm−1 In case of F1, F2, all represents final BF-HA-HAP scaffold with
2% and 5% HA-CS respectively.
These scaffolds showed peaks at 1000-1500 cm−1 region,
2800-3000 cm−1 region due to vibrations of C-OH side groups, -OH
stretching and 1500 cm−1 and 1400 cm−1 for C–O, C–C stretching which
represents that HA-CS is successfully conjugated with BF (T. Schön et
al,2011)

Fig 4.7: HR-SEM analysis of HA-CS coating on banana fiber
scaffold

HR-SEM analysis of final scaffold gave the confirmation of
scaffold morphology. At higher magnification attached HA-CS was
observed on fiber. HR-SEM has detected the distribution of HA-CS
particle on scaffold.
48
This also caused by increase in ionic osmotic pressure. At
particular time it reaches equilibrium, it reaches steady state at 100 h
shows 70% at 9.0 and 90% at pH 5. Mainly, swelling is directly
proportional to more drug capacity and sustained release of drug. So,
effective swelling at acidic pH denotes the higher release of drug with
time in acidic environment. This higher degree of swelling will have a
larger surface area/volume ratio thus allowing the samples for cell
infusion as well as maximum drug release in acidic tumour
environment.
49
As stated in the introduction, the extracellular fluids and
normal cells have a 7.4 pH, in which the GSH concentrations are 2-20
μM and 2-10 mM, respectively; while the tumour cells contain slightly
acid environment (pH 5.0) and have a higher GSH level (at least 4-fold
related to normal cells).
50
Figure shows absorption spectra of dye loaded BF-HA-CS
scaffold (pH 5, pH 7, pH 9). Pure FITC shows broad absorption
spectrum whereas the dye loaded scaffold showed narrow absorption at
pH 5.0 at around 520 nm.
