Centrosome amplification drives chromosomal instability in breast tumor development.
Earlier studies of invasive breast tumors have shown that 60-80% are aneuploid and approximately 80% exhibit amplified centrosomes. In this study, we investigated the relationship of centrosome amplification with aneuploidy, chromosomal instability, p53 mutation, and loss of differentiation in human breast tumors. Twenty invasive breast tumors and seven normal breast tissues were analyzed by fl...
متن کاملEpstein–Barr virus particles induce centrosome amplification and chromosomal instability
Infections with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) are associated with cancer development, and EBV lytic replication (the process that generates virus progeny) is a strong risk factor for some cancer types. Here we report that EBV infection of B-lymphocytes (in vitro and in a mouse model) leads to an increased rate of centrosome amplification, associated with chromosomal instability. This effect can be r...
متن کاملEstrogen mediates Aurora-A overexpression, centrosome amplification, chromosomal instability, and breast cancer in female ACI rats.
Estrogens play a crucial role in the causation and development of sporadic human breast cancer (BC). Chromosomal instability (CIN) is a defining trait of early human ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and is believed to precipitate breast oncogenesis. We reported earlier that 100% of female ACI (August/Copenhagen/Irish) rats treated with essentially physiological serum levels of 17beta-estradiol l...
متن کاملYB-1 provokes breast cancer through the induction of chromosomal instability that emerges from mitotic failure and centrosome amplification.
YB-1 protein levels are elevated in most human breast cancers, and high YB-1 levels have been correlated with drug resistance and poor clinical outcome. YB-1 is a stress-responsive, cell cycle-regulated transcription factor with additional functions in RNA metabolism and translation. In this study, we show in a novel transgenic mouse model that human hemagglutinin-tagged YB-1 provokes remarkabl...
متن کاملAdaptive Amplification An Inducible Chromosomal Instability Mechanism
Adaptive mutation is an induced response to environmental stress in which mutation rates rise, producing permanent genetic changes that can adapt cells to stress. This contrasts with neo-Darwinian views of genetic change rates blind to environmental conditions. DNA amplification is a flexible, reversible genomic change that has long been postulated to be adaptive. We report the discovery of ada...
