The many-faced KSR1: a tumor suppressor in breast cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Emerging evidence supports the dual function of kinase suppressor of Ras 1 (KSR1) as an active kinase and a scaffold, although it has been extensively referred as a pseudokinase, due to the absence of key residues in its catalytic domain [1, 2].

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

Circulating tumor cell viability during and after radiotherapy mirrors treatment response in cancer patients

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Radiotherapy (RT) response depends on the DNA repair capacity of tumor and host cells. We show that circulating tumor cell (CTC) counts and apoptosis rates before and after RT predict treatment response and outcome, which can be accessed via easily accessible liquid biopsy approaches. Created in BioRender. Wikman, H.

Basal-like breast cancers: from pathology to biology and back again [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Human breast cancers referred to as "basal-like" are of interest because they lack effective therapies and their biology is poorly understood. The term basal-like derives from studies demonstrating tumor gene expression profiles that include some ...

PARP inhibitors induce a senescence phenotype in non‐small cell lung carcinoma cell lines

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Talazoparib is the most potent inducer of senescence among different PARP1 inhibitors in human NSCLC cells. In the absence of PARP, no senescence phenotype was observed, demonstrating that PARP1 is necessary for the induction of senescence by this inhibitor.

Male Breast Carcinoma after Irradiation and Long-Term Phenothiazine Exposure: A Case Report

open access: yesCase Reports in Oncology, 2020
We present a young male patient with breast cancer having several risk factors likely acting in consort: irradiation of the breast for gynecomastia in adolescence and a life-long administration of phenothiazine for schizophrenia from the age of 16 years,

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.

Re‐Awakening Public Attention to the Silent Pandemic of Cancer Among Older Adults in Low‐ and Middle‐Income Countries

open access: yesAging and Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As global populations age, cancer is increasingly becoming a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among older adults, particularly in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs). Despite accounting for the majority of new cancer cases and deaths, older individuals remain underrepresented in cancer research, clinical guidelines, and health ...

A Case of Triple-Negative Breast Cancer with Germline Pathogenic Variants in Both BRCA1 and BRCA2

open access: yesCase Reports in Oncology, 2021
We report a rare case of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome (HBOC) with pathogenic variants in both BRCA1 and BRCA2. The patient was a 78-year-old woman who visited the hospital after noticing a lump in her left breast 6 months before, which ...

A theory for the tissue specificity of BRCA1/2 related and other hereditary cancers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Women who inherit a defective BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene have risks for breast and ovarian cancer that are so high and seem so selective that many mutation carriers choose to have prophylactic surgery. There has been much conjecture to explain such apparently
