Abstract: In recent years, many new microtubuleassociated proteins are found or studied extensively in the treatment of breast cancer. Endbinding protein 1 (EB1) has the promotional effects on cell proliferation and enhances the carcinogenesis of breast cancer, and also can affect the chemosensitivity of the treatment. MAP7 domaincontaining protein 3 (Mdp3) expresses in breast epithelial cells and plays an important role on the growth and metastasis. Nucleolar and spindleassociated protein (NuSAP) gene is upregulated in breast cancer and is considered as a biomarker for breast cancer. Tau expression level has a strong correlation with estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor2 (HER2), and it remains controversial in the results of the effect of paclitaxel chemotherapy and hormone treatment.
