Investigation of the relationship of TNFRSF11A gene polymorphisms with breast cancer development and metastasis risk in patients with BRCA1 or BRCA2 pathogenic variants living in the Trakya region of Turkey

open access: yesBalkan Journal of Medical Genetics, 2021
Modifying genes play an exclusive role in the genetic regulation of the risk of breast cancer development in women with a pathogenic variation of BRCA1 or BRCA2.

BRCA1 and cell signaling [PDF]

open access: yesOncogene, 2000
The breast cancer and ovarian cancer susceptibility gene BRCA1 encodes a nucleoprotein whose mutations or aberrant expression is associated with both inherited and sporadic cancers. Studies over the last 6 years have suggested that BRCA1 may function as a scaffold in the assembly of a multi-protein complex, which plays a role in gene transcription, DNA

NF-κB regulates DNA double-strand break repair in conjunction with BRCA1-CtIP complexes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
NF-κB is involved in immune responses, inflammation, oncogenesis, cell proliferation and apoptosis. Even though NF-κB can be activated by DNA damage via Ataxia telangiectasia-mutated (ATM) signalling, little was known about an involvement in DNA repair ...

Common variants at 12p11, 12q24, 9p21, 9q31.2 and in ZNF365 are associated with breast cancer risk for BRCA1 and/or BRCA2 mutation carriers. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Several common alleles have been shown to be associated with breast and/or ovarian cancer risk for BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers. Recent genome-wide association studies of breast cancer have identified eight additional breast cancer susceptibility ...

A study of somatic BRCA variants and their putative effect on protein properties in malignant mesothelioma

open access: yesPleura and Peritoneum, 2023
The aim of this study is to analyze the prevalence of somatic mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 in malignant mesothelioma and their putative impact on protein properties.

BRCA1 and Oxidative Stress [PDF]

open access: yesCancers, 2014
The breast cancer susceptibility gene 1 (BRCA1) has been well established as a tumor suppressor and functions primarily by maintaining genome integrity. Genome stability is compromised when cells are exposed to oxidative stress. Increasing evidence suggests that BRCA1 regulates oxidative stress and this may be another mechanism in preventing ...

Evaluation of a candidate breast cancer associated SNP in ERCC4 as a risk modifier in BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers. Results from the Consortium of Investigators of Modifiers of BRCA1/BRCA2 (CIMBA) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
BACKGROUND: In this study we aimed to evaluate the role of a SNP in intron I of the ERCC4 gene (rs744154), previously reported to be associated with a reduced risk of breast cancer in the general population, as a breast cancer risk modifier in BRCA1 and ...

BRCA1 and sex ratio [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Human Genetics, 2004
Two recent papers suggest distorted sex and transmission ratios associated with BRCA1 mutations. If real, these would provide novel insights into the normal biological function of this gene and have implications for genetic epidemiologic methods used to estimate penetrance.

European guidelines from the EHTG and ESCP for Lynch syndrome: an updated third edition of the Mallorca guidelines based on gene and gender

open access: yesBJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020
Recommendations for clinical and molecular identification of LS, surgical and endoscopic management of LS‐associated colorectal cancer and preventive measures for cancer were produced. The emphasis was on surgical and gastroenterological aspects of the cancer spectrum.
