  Circulating Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (HER-2/neu) receptor protein concentrations in breast cancer patients seem to be as helpful as predictive indicators of survival as age, tumor size, Progesterone receptor and Estrogen receptor expression. Estrogen receptor is a protein molecule that specifically binds to estrogen in cells, it is one of the effective tumor markers for breast cancer, and Estrogen receptor has an important role in the cellular growth and differentiation of cells and their proliferation. The current study aims to examine and assess changes in serum and salivary Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (HER2), Estrogen Receptor (ER.) and how they affect breast cancer. A total of 130 females within the ages of 17, 75 underwent tests, with 90 of them constituting a clinical group of women with early-stage breast cancer. Of them, 45 had malignant breast cancer ..
