YB-1 Transforms Human Mammary Epithelial Cells Through Chromatin Remodeling Leading to the Development of Basal-Like Breast Cancer
20 Mar 2014
Abstract excerpt
There is growing evidence that cancer-initiation could result from epigenetic changes. Y-box binding protein-1 (YB-1) is a transcription/translation factor that promotes the formation of tumors in transgenic mice; however, the underlying molecular events are not understood. To explore this in a human model system, YB-1 was expressed in mammary epithelial cells under the control of a tetracycline-inducible...
