INTRODUCTION BRCA mutation testing allows index patients and their families to be provided with appropriate cancer risk-reduction strategies. Because of the low prevalence of BRCA mutations in unselected breast cancer patients and the high cost of genetic testing, it is important to identify the subset of women who are likely to carry BRCA mutations. In the present study, we examined the associ...
BRCA1 and BRCA2 account for most cases of hereditary breast cancer in the United States and Europe. These are suppressor genes that are inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion. Several studies showed that the histologic and molecular phenotype of BRCA-associated tumors is different from that of nonhereditary tumors. There is a difference in steroid receptor status between BRCA1 and 2 tumors ...
Emerging evidence suggests a role of receptor activator of nuclear factor κB (RANK)/RANK ligand (RANKL) signaling in breast cancer development. Lower osteoprotegerin (OPG) levels, the endogenous decoy receptor for RANKL which competes with RANK for binding of RANKL, has been reported among BRCA mutation carriers. Whether low OPG levels contribute to the high breast cancer risk in this populatio...
BRCA1/2 mutations and recently described constitutional FMR1 genotypes have, independently, been associated with prematurely diminished ovarian reserve. Whether they interrelate in distribution, and whether observed effects of BRCA1/2 and FMR1 on ovaries are independent of each other, is unknown. In a prospective comparative cohort study, we, therefore, investigated the distribution of constitu...
BRCA1/2 mutations predispose to early onset breast and ovarian cancers. The phenotypic expression of mutant alleles, however, is thought to be modified by factors that are also involved in the pathogenesis of sporadic breast cancer. One such protein is IGF-I, one of the strongest mitogens to breast cancer cells in vitro. We have utilized immunohistochemistry to compare the intratumoral IGF-I an...
OBJECTIVE The role of BRCA dysfunction on the prognosis of patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOCs) remains controversial. This systematic review tried to assess the role of BRCA dysfunction, including BRCA1/2 germline, somatic mutations, low BRCA1 protein/mRNA expression or BRCA1 promoter methylation, as prognostic factor in EOCs. METHODS Studies were selected for analysis if they prov...
