Gene products of chromosome 11q and their association with CCND1gene amplification and tamoxifen resistance in premenopausal breast cancer
29 Sept 2008
Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: The amplification event occurring at chromosome locus 11q13, reported in several different cancers, includes a number of potential oncogenes. We have previously reported amplification of one such oncogene, namely CCND1, to be correlated with an adverse effect of tamoxifen in premenopausal breast cancer patients. Over-expression of cyclin D1 protein, however, confers tamoxifen resistance but not a...
