Molecular Characterization of the Tumor-Suppressive Function of Nischarin in Breast Cancer
14 Sept 2011
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Nischarin (encoded by NISCH), an α5 integrin-binding protein, has been identified as a regulator of breast cancer cell invasion. We hypothesized that it might be a tumor suppressor and were interested in its regulation. METHODS: We examined nischarin expression in approximately 300 human breast cancer and normal tissues using quantitative polymerase chain reaction and immunohistochemistry. Loss of...
