BACKGROUND
The genotype of Fanconi Anemia complementation group M (FANCM) was previously found to be associated with breast cancer risk in several populations. Here, we studied the expression of FANCM and its correlation with clinical characteristics in Chinese patients with breast
Mistakes in DNA repair can result in sustained damage and genetic instability. We comprehensively evaluated common variants in DNA repair pathway genes for their association with postmenopausal breast cancer risk with and without respect to estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR)
Two subgroups of invasive breast carcinomas have been identified with a poor prognosis in different patient cohorts: the basal-like category and the subgroup containing proteins capable of inducing metastasis in experimental rodents, the metastasis-inducing proteins (MIPs). Here we identify by
The DNA damage response pathway controlled by the breast cancer and Fanconi anemia (FA) genes can be disrupted by genetic or epigenetic mechanisms in breast cancer. Defects in this pathway may render the affected tumors hypersensitive to DNA-damaging agents. The identification of these defects poses
