We have carried out a quantitative analysis of ER-alpha and ER-beta mRNA expression in normal (n = 11) and breast cancer (n = 112) tissues using a real-time (Taq-Man) PCR assay. Expression of ER-beta mRNA variants has also been studied by triple-primer PCR assay. ER-alpha mRNA levels in normal breas

Studies using comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) indicate that portions of chromosome arm 8q from 8q12 to 8qter are present at an increased relative copy number in a broad range of solid tumors. In this study we define an ϳ 1 Mb wide region that appears to be frequently abnormal in copy number
In previous reports, we described that DPC4/Smad4 and Smad2 are mutated in a fraction of human lung cancers and suggested possible roles of the downstream mediators of transforming growth factor- (TGF-)-elicited signals in the pathogenesis of this most common cancer. In the present study, we inves
## Abstract Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed type of cancer and a major cause of death in women. Reliable biomarkers are urgently needed to improve early detection or to provide evidence of the prognosis for each individual patient through expression levels in tumor tissue or body fluid
## Abstract The three mammalian HP1 proteins, HP1α/CBX5, HP1β/CBX1, and HPγ/CBX3, are involved in chromatin packing and gene regulation. The HP1α protein is down‐regulated in invasive compared to non‐invasive breast cancer cells and HP1α is a suppressor of cell migration and invasion. In this repor
