The Effects of BRCA1 and BRCA2 Promoter Methylation on Clinicopathological Characteristics and Clinical Outcomes in HGSOC [PDF]

open access: yesCells
Ovarian cancer is a highly lethal disease. Tumors with a deficiency in the homologous recombination repair pathway (HRD) resulting from mutations in BRCA1/2 genes have a favorable response to platinum-based chemotherapy and targeted therapy with PARP ...

Differentially expressed genes and key molecules of BRCA1/2-mutant breast cancer: evidence from bioinformatics analyses [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2020
Background BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes are currently proven to be closely related to high lifetime risks of breast cancer. To date, the closely related genes to BRCA1/2 mutations in breast cancer remains to be fully elucidated.

Clinicopathological characteristics of -associated breast cancer in Asian patients [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Pathology and Translational Medicine, 2020
BRCA1/2 germline mutations account for the majority of hereditary breast cancers. Since the identification of the BRCA genes, several attempts have been made to define the clinicopathological characteristics of BRCA-associated breast cancer in comparison

Correlation between the number of false positive variants and the quality of results using Ion Torrent PGM™ sequencing to screen BRCA genes

open access: yesBiomédica: revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud, 2021
Introduction: Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) is cost-effective and a faster method to study genes, but its protocol is challenging. Objective: To analyze different adjustments to the protocol for screening the BRCA genes using Ion Torrent PGM ...

Histopathological characterization of carcinoma breast with BRCA1/2 sequence variation in a Tertiary Care Center in Kerala, South India

open access: yesBiomedical and Biotechnology Research Journal, 2022
Background: Hereditary breast cancers constitute around 5%–10% of all breast cancers. The most commonly mutated genes in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome are the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes.

The Relationship of Mutation Carriage of BRCA1/2 and Family History in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer: Experience from a Diagnostic Center in Turkey

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Breast Health, 2021
Objective:BRCA1/2 genes play a role in the etiopathogenesis of 10%–30% of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). This study aims to investigate the BRCA1/2 genes and the demographic and clinicopathological features in patients with TNBC.

BRCA1-mediated repression of select X chromosome genes

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine, 2004
Recently BRCA1 has been implicated in the regulation of gene expression from the X chromosome. In this study the influence of BRCA1 on expression of X chromosome genes was investigated.

Secondary somatic mutations restoring RAD51C and RAD51D associated with acquired resistance to the PARP inhibitor rucaparib in high-grade ovarian carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
High-grade epithelial ovarian carcinomas (OC) containing mutated BRCA1 or BRCA2 (BRCA1/2) homologous recombination (HR) genes are sensitive to platinum-based chemotherapy and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi), while restoration of HR ...

Attenuation of RNA polymerase II pausing mitigates BRCA1-associated R-loop accumulation and tumorigenesis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Most BRCA1-associated breast tumours are basal-like yet originate from luminal progenitors. BRCA1 is best known for its functions in double-strand break repair and resolution of DNA replication stress.
