Untangling the clinicopathological significance of MRE11-RAD50-NBS1 complex in sporadic breast cancers (2021)
Journal Article

The MRE11–RAD50–NBS1 (MRN) complex is critical for genomic stability. Although germline mutations in MRN may increase breast cancer susceptibility, such mutations are extremely rare. Here, we have conducted a comprehensive clinicopathological study o... Read More about Untangling the clinicopathological significance of MRE11-RAD50-NBS1 complex in sporadic breast cancers.

Concordance between core needle biopsy and surgical excision specimens for Ki-67 in breast cancer–a systematic review of the literature (2021)
Journal Article

Aims: The biomarkers oestrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) are routinely measured in patients with breast cancer with international consensus on how they should be interpreted. There i... Read More about Concordance between core needle biopsy and surgical excision specimens for Ki-67 in breast cancer–a systematic review of the literature.

The frequency and clinical significance of DNA polymerase beta (POLβ) expression in breast ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) (2021)
Journal Article

Background: The prediction of clinical behaviour of breast ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and its progression to invasive disease remains a challenge. Alterations of DNA damage repair mechanisms are associated with invasive breast cancer (BC). This... Read More about The frequency and clinical significance of DNA polymerase beta (POLβ) expression in breast ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS).

SLC1A5 co-expression with TALDO1 associates with endocrine therapy failure in estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer (2021)
Journal Article

Purpose: Identification of effective biomarkers for the benefit of endocrine treatment and understanding the molecular pathways that contribute to the development of resistance are of crucial importance to the management of luminal breast cancer. The... Read More about SLC1A5 co-expression with TALDO1 associates with endocrine therapy failure in estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer.

RANK signaling increases after anti-HER2 therapy contributing to the emergence of resistance in HER2-positive breast cancer (2021)
Journal Article

Background Around 15–20% of primary breast cancers are characterized by HER2 protein overexpression and/or HER2 gene amplification. Despite the successful development of anti-HER2 drugs, intrinsic and acquired resistance represents a major hurdle. T... Read More about RANK signaling increases after anti-HER2 therapy contributing to the emergence of resistance in HER2-positive breast cancer.

Genome-Wide Analysis Unveils DNA Helicase RECQ1 as a Regulator of Estrogen Response Pathway in Breast Cancer Cells (2021)
Journal Article

Susceptibility to breast cancer is significantly increased in individuals with germ line mutations in RECQ1 (also known as RECQL or RECQL1), a gene encoding a DNA helicase essential for genome maintenance. We previously reported that RECQ1 expression... Read More about Genome-Wide Analysis Unveils DNA Helicase RECQ1 as a Regulator of Estrogen Response Pathway in Breast Cancer Cells.

The impact of tumour biology on the management of primary breast cancer in older women—based on a research programme in Nottingham (2021)
Journal Article

The incidence of breast cancer increases with age. Average life expectancies are increasing; the older population is expanding globally. This presents a huge challenge on an international scale in the coming years as more older people are living with...

The role of ALDH1A1 in contributing to breast tumour aggressiveness: A study conducted in an African population (2021)
Journal Article

Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 member A1 (ALDH1A1) is one of the most well studied breast cancer stem cells. Its expression has been associated with poor clinicopathological features and clinical outcomes in several studies. This paper studies the expressi...
