Chromodomain helicase DNA binding protein 5 plays a tumor suppressor role in human breast cancer
8 May 2012
Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: The chromodomain helicase DNA binding protein 5 (CHD5) has recently been identified as a tumor suppressor in a mouse model. The CHD5 locus at 1p36 is deleted, and its mutation has been detected in breast cancer. We, therefore, evaluated whether CHD5 plays a role in human breast cancer. METHODS: We screened mutations in 55 tumors, determined promoter methylation in 39 tumors, measured RNA expression...
