Multiple ABCB1 transcriptional fusions in drug resistant high-grade serous ovarian and breast cancer
20 Mar 2019
Abstract excerpt
ABCB1 encodes Multidrug Resistance protein (MDR1), an ATP-binding cassette member involved in the cellular efflux of chemotherapeutic drugs. Here we report that ovarian and breast samples from chemotherapy treated patients are positive for multiple transcriptional fusions involving ABCB1, placing it under the control of a strong promoter while leaving its open reading frame intact. We identified 15 different...
