Breast Cancer Res 12:R12. 2010..We undertook a study to assess the clinical factors that predict for an estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer in BRCA1 mutation carriers and to characterize the pathologic features of these tumors...
Clinical outcome of triple negative breast cancer in BRCA1 mutation carriers and noncarriersLarissa J Lee

Does neoadjuvant bevacizumab increase surgical complications in breast surgery?M Golshan
Department of Surgery, Brigham and Women s Hospital, Boston, MA, USA
Ann Surg Oncol 18:733-7. 2011..There are limited data on the safety of bevacizumab (bev) in the neoadjuvant setting. We sought to explore the safety of neoadjuvant cisplatin/bev in a protocol for triple negative breast cancer (TNBC)...
Wild-type BRCA1, but not mutated BRCA1, regulates the expression of the nuclear form of beta-cateninHuchun Li
Division of Experimental Medicine, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Harvard Institutes of Medicine, 99 Brookline Avenue, RN 330C, Boston, MA 02115, USA
Mol Cancer Res 8:407-20. 2010..This study provides evidence of a novel interaction between BRCA1 and beta-catenin, and that loss of BRCA1 leads to impaired expression of the nuclear form of beta-catenin, which may contribute to the pathogenesis of breast cancer...
