Abstract excerpt
Both BRCA1 and CaSR have been shown to suppress the expression of survivin and promote sensitivity to paclitaxel in human breast cancer cells. In this study we determined the functional linkage, if any, between BRCA1 and CaSR. We found that mutant cells (harboring mutant BRCA1 with loss of BRCA1 expression) had a significant reduction in the expression of CaSR with a concurrent up-regulated expression of survivin...
