Abstract
Despite the high incidence of breast cancer in women worldwide, there are still great challenges in the treatment process. Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles, and their dynamics involve cellular energy conversion, signal conduction and other processes. In recent years, an increasing number of studies have affirmed the dynamics of mitochondria as the basis for cancer progression and metastasis; that is, an imbalance between mitochondrial fission and fusion may lead to the progression and metastasis of breast cancer. Here, we review the latest insights into mitochondrial dynamics in the progression of breast cancer and emphasize the clinical value of mitochondrial dynamics in diagnosis and prognosis, as well as important advances in clinical research.
