Association of centrosomal kinaseSTK15/BTAK mRNA expression with chromosomal instability in human breast cancers
1 Jan 2001
Abstract excerpt
Over-expression of a centrosomal serine/threonine kinase, STK15/BTAK, induces centrosome amplification, which results in chromosomal instability (CIN) in cell culture. In the present study, we investigated the correlation of STK15/BTAK mRNA expression with CIN and various clinicopathological factors in human breast cancer. STK15/BTAK mRNA levels were quantified by real-time PCR, and CIN values were determined by...
