Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Most breast cancers have chromosomal instability that seems related to defective mitotic spindle checkpoints. Because the molecular basis of this defect is unknown, we evaluated breast cancer cell lines and tissues for possible defects involving the major mitotic checkpoint genes responsible for maintaining chromosomal stability. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: We analyzed sequences and expression levels (RNA and...
