Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed and leading cause of cancer death among women worldwide. It was classified within molecular intrinsic subtypes: luminal A, luminal B, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2‐enriched and basal‐like. Epinephrine and norepinephrine, released during stress, bind to adrenoceptors. α2‐adrenoceptors are encoded by the ADRA2A, ADRA2B and ADRA2C genes and β2 by ADRB2.
