Functional characterization of the 19q12 amplicon in grade III breast cancers
20 Mar 2012
Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: The 19q12 locus is amplified in a subgroup of oestrogen receptor (ER)-negative grade III breast cancers. This amplicon comprises nine genes, including cyclin E1 (CCNE1), which has been proposed as its 'driver'. The aim of this study was to identify the genes within the 19q12 amplicon whose expression is required for the survival of cancer cells harbouring their amplification. METHODS: We...
