摘要：

The confounding problem in treatment of breast cancer is the metastasis of breast tumour. Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) has been recently used in the detection of circulating breast cancer cells. This review reports on the development of this assay as well as its advantages and disadvantages. We feel that cytokeratin 20 and beta -human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) mRNA are the best markers for the detection of circulating boast cancer cells. We suggest that the multiple RNA marker RT-PCR assay can help to increase both sensitivity and specificity of detection, and that quantitative RT-PCR assay is more effective than the qualitative assay in the detection of circulating breast cancer cells.
