Most BRCA1-associated breast tumors are basal-like yet originate from luminal progenitor cells. BRCA1 is best known for its functions in DNA repair and resolution of DNA replication stress. However, i
These data are from patients with an identified hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) gene mutation with prospectively collected qualitative interviews. This research was approved by the Univers
Purpose: To compare the transcriptomes of HCC1937 vector and wtBRCA1 cells which were treated with OTX-015. Methods: HCC1937 vector and wtBRCA1 cells were treated with 5 micromolar OTX-015 for 24 hour
Introduction: Research on the perceived utility of genomic sequencing has focused primarily on pediatric populations and on individuals and families with rare genetic diseases. Here, we evaluate how w
Purpose: As estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer in BRCA1 mutation carriers arises at an older age with less aggressive tumor characteristics than ER negative BRCA1 mutated breast cancer, it
