RERG Is a Novel ras-related, Estrogen-regulated and Growth-inhibitory Gene in Breast Cancer

Abstract excerpt

Using microarray analysis, we identified a unique ras superfamily gene, termed RERG (ras-related and estrogen-regulated growth inhibitor), whose expression was decreased or lost in a significant percentage of primary human breast tumors that show a poor clinical prognosis. Importantly, high RERG expression correlated with expression of a set of genes that define a breast tumor subtype that is estrogen...
