Human | BRCA1P1 | 394269 | BRCA1 pseudogene 1 | In the two families with breast and ovarian cancer mentioned above, distinct homologous recombination events occurred between intron 2 of BRCA1 and intron 2 of PsiBRCA1, leading to 37-kb deletions. | Human | PEBP4 | 157310 | phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein 4 | Human phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein 4 (hPEBP4) is a recently identified anti-apoptotic molecule and has been shown to be highly expressed in breast and ovarian cancer cells. | Human | CNKSR3 | 154043 | CNKSR family member 3 | We have identified a novel protein, BAP1, which binds to the RING finger domain of the Breast/Ovarian Cancer Susceptibility Gene product, BRCA1. | Human | TUBA1C | 84790 | tubulin, alpha 1c | Taxol stabilizes microtubules, prevents tubulin depolymerization, and promotes tubulin bundling and is one of the most effective drugs for the treatment of metastatic breast and ovarian cancer. | Human | BRIP1 | 83990 | BRCA1 interacting protein C-terminal helicase 1 | Based on sequencing of ZBRK1 and BRIP1 in 21 BRCA1/2-negative probands from inherited breast/ovarian cancer families, it appears unlikely that mutations in these genes account for a significant fraction of inherited breast cancer. Here, we screened 214 breast and ovarian cancer patients from 151 Finnish families for germline BACH1 mutations by utilising conformation-sensitive gel electrophoresis (CSGE) and genomic sequencing analysis. Mutational analysis of the BRCA1-interacting genes ZNF350/ZBRK1 and BRIP1/BACH1 among BRCA1 and BRCA2-negative probands from breast-ovarian cancer families and among early-onset breast cancer cases and reference individuals. No evidence of involvement of germline BACH1 mutations in Finnish breast and ovarian cancer families. Mutations within the BRCT repeats disrupt the interaction between BRCA1 and BACH1, lead to defects in DNA repair, and result in breast and ovarian cancer. Recently BACH1, a novel putative DNA helicase mapping to chromosome 17q22, was reported to interact specifically with BRCA1, and was suggested to be a candidate gene for predisposition to breast and ovarian cancers. | Human | ZNF350 | 59348 | zinc finger protein 350 | Mutational analysis of the BRCA1-interacting genes ZNF350/ZBRK1 and BRIP1/BACH1 among BRCA1 and BRCA2-negative probands from breast-ovarian cancer families and among early-onset breast cancer cases and reference individuals. Based on sequencing of ZBRK1 and BRIP1 in 21 BRCA1/2-negative probands from inherited breast/ovarian cancer families, it appears unlikely that mutations in these genes account for a significant fraction of inherited breast cancer. | Human | C11orf30 | 56946 | chromosome 11 open reading frame 30 | The remarkable clinical overlap between sporadic EMSY amplification and familial BRCA2 deletion implicates a BRCA2 pathway in sporadic breast and ovarian cancer. EMSY maps to chromosome 11q13.5, a region known to be involved in breast and ovarian cancer. EMSY links the BRCA2 pathway to sporadic breast and ovarian cancer. EMSY is located within an amplicon in sporadic breast and ovarian cancers, suggesting that its overexpression may mimic the effects of BRCA2 inactivation. | Human | PMEPA1 | 56937 | prostate transmembrane protein, androgen induced 1 | Finally, we have demonstrated that, besides prostate cancer and renal cell carcinoma, STAG1 was also overexpressed in breast and ovarian cancer cell lines and in breast primary tumors. | Human | WNT4 | 54361 | wingless-type MMTV integration site family, member 4 | Characterization and expression of the human WNT4; lack of associated germline mutations in high--to moderate--risk breast and ovarian cancer. Their absence in cancer families, however, implies lack of involvement of WNT4 mutations in the etiology of hereditary susceptibility to breast and ovarian cancer. | Human | UBR5 | 51366 | ubiquitin protein ligase E3 component n-recognin 5 | These results demonstrate that AI at the EDD locus is common in a diversity of carcinomas and that the EDD gene is frequently overexpressed in breast and ovarian cancer, implying a potential role in cancer progression. AI is likely to represent amplification of the EDD gene locus rather than loss of heterozygosity, as quantitative RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry showed that EDD mRNA and protein are frequently overexpressed in breast and ovarian cancers, while among breast cancer cell lines EDD overexpression and increased gene copy number were correlated. | Human | KLK14 | 43847 | kallikrein-related peptidase 14 | Similar to other kallikrein genes, KLK14 was found to be regulated by steroid hormones, particularly androgens and progestins, in breast and ovarian cancer cell lines. Given that KLK14 is hormonally regulated, differentially expressed in endocrine-related cancers, and a prognostic marker for breast and ovarian cancer at the mRNA level, we hypothesize that its encoded protein, hK14, like hK3/prostate-specific antigen, may constitute a new biomarker for endocrine-related malignancies. To study KLK14 gene expression in endocrine-related cancers, we studied its hormonal regulation in breast and ovarian cancer cell lines. | Human | OSGIN1 | 29948 | oxidative stress induced growth inhibitor 1 | To develop a rat model for further characterization of OKL38;s role in the initiation and progression of breast and ovarian cancer, we now report the cloning and characterization of three novel rat OKL38 cDNAs that are derived through alternative splicing and differential promoter usage. | Human | KLK5 | 25818 | kallikrein-related peptidase 5 | Human kallikrein 5: a potential novel serum biomarker for breast and ovarian cancer. KLK5 was shown to be differentially expressed at the mRNA level in breast and ovarian cancer. KLK5-SV2 is a potential biomarker for breast and ovarian cancers. We have previously reported regulation of the KLK5 gene by estrogens and progestins and its clinical value as a marker of poor prognosis in breast and ovarian cancers. | Human | CHEK2 | 11200 | checkpoint kinase 2 | Most women with a family history of breast/ovarian cancer have tumors characterized by alterations in particular genes, mainly BRCA1 and BRCA2, but also CHK2, ATM, STK11 and others. This is the first study from South India, on BRCA1, BRCA2 (1100 del C) mutations in patients with a family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer and early onset breast/ovarian cancer, using the sensitive DHPLC approach. BRCA1, BRCA2 and CHEK2 (1100 del C) germline mutations in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer families in South India. INTRODUCTION: Mutations in BRCA1, BRCA2, ATM, TP53, CHK2 and PTEN account for many, but not all, multiple-case breast and ovarian cancer families. | Human | WFDC2 | 10406 | WAP four-disulfide core domain 2 | Amplification of 20q is frequently implicated in both breast and ovarian cancer; this region contains a number of oncogenes including MDM2, ZNF217, and the ovarian tumor marker WFDC2 (alias HE4). | Human | HMG20B | 10362 | high mobility group 20B | Because of the high incidence of genetic links of prostate cancer to breast and ovarian cancers, we investigated the BRAF25 expression in the prostate specimens. | Human | RAD50 | 10111 | RAD50 homolog (S. cerevisiae) | Mutation screening of Mre11 complex genes: indication of RAD50 involvement in breast and ovarian cancer susceptibility. | Human | C1orf38 | 9473 | | Expression of icb-1 gene is interferon-gamma inducible in breast and ovarian cancer cell lines and affects the IFNgamma-response of SK-OV-3 ovarian cancer cells. | Human | DIRAS3 | 9077 | DIRAS family, GTP-binding RAS-like 3 | Click here to display 10 evidence detail records. | Human | BECN1 | 8678 | beclin 1, autophagy related | Beclin 1 encodes a Bcl-2-interacting coiled-coil protein with autophagy and tumor suppressor function and is monoallelically deleted in 40-75% of sporadic human breast and ovarian cancers. | Human | CXCR4 | 7852 | chemokine (C-X-C motif) receptor 4 | Recently, SDF-1alpha and CXCR4 have been shown to be important regulators of migration and metastasis in breast and ovarian cancer. | Human | ZNF217 | 7764 | zinc finger protein 217 | Amplification of 20q is frequently implicated in both breast and ovarian cancer; this region contains a number of oncogenes including MDM2, ZNF217, and the ovarian tumor marker WFDC2 (alias HE4). | Human | CLEC3B | 7123 | C-type lectin domain family 3, member B | [Tetranectin, a plasma and tissue protein--a prognostic marker of breast and ovarian cancer] | Human | THRA | 7067 | thyroid hormone receptor, alpha | In order to pinpoint the locale of the gene for early-onset familial breast and ovarian cancer (BRCA1), polymorphisms were developed within the locus for thyroid hormone receptor alpha (THRA1) and for several anonymous sequences at chromosome 17q12-q21. Gene mapping in extended families with inherited, early-onset breast and ovarian cancer indicates that BRCA1 is distal to THRA1 and proximal to D17S183 (SCG43), an interval of < 4 cM. THRA1 and D17S183 flank an interval of < 4 cM for the breast-ovarian cancer gene (BRCA1) on chromosome 17q21. | Human | TFF1 | 7031 | trefoil factor 1 | Prognostic value of pS2 protein and receptors for epidermal growth factor (EGF-R), insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1-R) and somatostatin (SS-R) in patients with breast and ovarian cancer. |
