Expression of DNA Double-Strand Break Repair Proteins ATM and BRCA1 Predicts Survival in Colorectal Cancer
1 Mar 2006
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: The double-strand break (DSB) is the major DNA lesion leading to chromosomal aberrations and faithful repair is crucial for maintaining genomic instability. Very little is known about the expression of DNA DSB repair proteins in colorectal cancer. To address this issue, we examined the expression pattern of DSB repair key proteins ATM, BRCA1, BRCA2, Ku70, and Ku80 and their putative role in patients...
