Stromal Fibroblasts Present in Invasive Human Breast Carcinomas Promote Tumor Growth and Angiogenesis through Elevated SDF-1/CXCL12 Secretion
- A. Orimo, P. Gupta, +6 authors R. Weinberg
- Biology, Medicine
- Cell
- 6 May 2005
Fibroblasts often constitute the majority of the stromal cells within a breast carcinoma, yet the functional contributions of these cells to tumorigenesis are poorly understood. Using a… Expand
Circulating Breast Tumor Cells Exhibit Dynamic Changes in Epithelial and Mesenchymal Composition
- M. Yu, A. Bardia, +17 authors S. Maheswaran
- Biology, Medicine
- Science
- 1 February 2013
Cells in Transit(ion) Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a developmental program that converts adherent epithelial cells to a migratory mesenchymal state. This cell-fate change has been… Expand
Transforming properties of YAP, a candidate oncogene on the chromosome 11q22 amplicon
- M. Overholtzer, J. Zhang, +6 authors D. Haber
- Biology, Medicine
- Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
- 15 August 2006
In a screen for gene copy-number changes in mouse mammary tumors, we identified a tumor with a small 350-kb amplicon from a region that is syntenic to a much larger locus amplified in human cancers… Expand
BACH1, a Novel Helicase-like Protein, Interacts Directly with BRCA1 and Contributes to Its DNA Repair Function
- S. Cantor, D. Bell, +8 authors D. Livingston
- Biology, Medicine
- Cell
- 6 April 2001
BRCA1 interacts in vivo with a novel protein, BACH1, a member of the DEAH helicase family. BACH1 binds directly to the BRCT repeats of BRCA1. A BACH1 derivative, bearing a mutation in a residue that… Expand
Hypoxia regulates TSC1/2-mTOR signaling and tumor suppression through REDD1-mediated 14-3-3 shuttling.
- M. P. Deyoung, P. Horák, A. Sofer, D. Sgroi, L. Ellisen
- Biology, Medicine
- Genes & development
- 15 January 2008
Hypoxia induces rapid and dramatic changes in cellular metabolism, in part through inhibition of target of rapamycin (TOR) kinase complex 1 (TORC1) activity. Genetic studies have shown the tuberous… Expand
Rapid "open-source" engineering of customized zinc-finger nucleases for highly efficient gene modification.
- Morgan L. Maeder, Stacey Thibodeau-Beganny, +23 authors J. K. Joung
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular cell
- 25 July 2008
Custom-made zinc-finger nucleases (ZFNs) can induce targeted genome modifications with high efficiency in cell types including Drosophila, C. elegans, plants, and humans. A bottleneck in the… Expand
Gene expression profiles of human breast cancer progression
- X. Ma, R. Salunga, +16 authors D. Sgroi
- Medicine, Biology
- Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences…
- 24 April 2003
Although distinct pathological stages of breast cancer have been described, the molecular differences among these stages are largely unknown. Here, through the combined use of laser capture… Expand
A two-gene expression ratio predicts clinical outcome in breast cancer patients treated with tamoxifen.
Tamoxifen significantly reduces tumor recurrence in certain patients with early-stage estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer, but markers predictive of treatment failure have not been identified.… Expand
Integrins and EGFR coordinately regulate the pro-apoptotic protein Bim to prevent anoikis
- M. Reginato, K. Mills, +5 authors J. Brugge
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature Cell Biology
- 1 August 2003
Epithelial cells must adhere to the extracellular matrix (ECM) for survival, as detachment from matrix triggers apoptosis or anoikis. Integrins are major mediators of adhesion between cells and ECM… Expand
Efficacy of neoadjuvant Cisplatin in triple-negative breast cancer.
- D. Silver, A. Richardson, +19 authors J. Garber
- Medicine
- Journal of clinical oncology : official journal…
- 1 March 2010
PURPOSE Cisplatin is a chemotherapeutic agent not used routinely for breast cancer treatment. As a DNA cross-linking agent, cisplatin may be effective treatment for hereditary BRCA1-mutated breast… Expand
