Bipolar Androgen Therapy as a Potential Mechanistic Bridge to Enhance PARP Inhibitor Efficacy in Prostate Cancer. [PDF]

open access: yesKaohsiung J Med Sci
ABSTRACT Prostate cancer remains a leading cause of cancer‐related mortality, largely driven by progression to metastatic castration‐resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Although poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPis) have improved outcomes in patients with homologous recombination repair (HRR) alterations, particularly in BRCA2‐mutated disease,

Effects of BRCA2 cis-regulation in normal breast and cancer risk amongst BRCA2 mutation carriers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
<p>Introduction: Cis-acting regulatory single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at specific loci may modulate penetrance of germline mutations at the same loci by introducing different levels of expression of the wild-type allele.

BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations in a population-based study of male breast cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Background: The contribution of BRCA1 and BRCA2 to the incidence of male breast cancer (MBC) in the United Kingdom is not known, and the importance of these genes in the increased risk of female breast cancer associated with a family history of breast ...

Interrogation of the protein-protein interactions between human BRCA2 BRC repeats and RAD51 reveals atomistic determinants of affinity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The breast cancer suppressor BRCA2 controls the recombinase RAD51 in the reactions that mediate homologous DNA recombination, an essential cellular process required for the error-free repair of DNA double-stranded breaks.

A comprehensive model for familial breast cancer incorporating BRCA1, BRCA2 and other genes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In computing the probability that a woman is a BRCA1 or BRCA2 carrier for genetic counselling purposes, it is important to allow for the fact that other breast cancer susceptibility genes may exist.

BRCA1/2 associated cancer susceptibility: a clinical overview

open access: yesForum of Clinical Oncology, 2016
The most frequently identified genetic cause of breast cancer is the germline mutation of BRCA1 and 2 genes. The carriers of these mutations are at high risk for breast and ovarian cancers and increased risk for pancreatic and prostate cancers.
