Amplification of the BP1 homeobox gene in breast cancerLuciane R Cavalli
Department of Oncology, Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center, Georgetown University, 3800 Reservoir Rd, Room S165A LL Lombardi Building, Washington, DC 20007, USA
Cancer Genet Cytogenet 187:19-24. 2008..Considering that BP1 expression was observed in cases with both increased and normal BP1 copy number, we conclude that other mechanisms in addition to gene amplification play a role in BP1 protein expression...

ERRgamma mediates tamoxifen resistance in novel models of invasive lobular breast cancerRebecca B Riggins
Department of Oncology, Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center, Georgetown University School of Medicine, Washington, District of Columbia 20057, USA
Cancer Res 68:8908-17. 2008..These data support a role for ERRgamma/AP1 signaling in the development of TAM resistance and suggest that expression of ERRgamma may be a marker of poor TAM response...
Detection of LOH and mitochondrial DNA alterations in ductal lavage and nipple aspirate fluids from hngh-risk patientsClaudine Isaacs
Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center, Georgetown University, Washington, DC 20007, USA
Breast Cancer Res Treat 84:99-105. 2004..One NAF sample from a BRCA1 patient showed a mtDNA mutation. Our data demonstrates the feasibility of performing molecular studies using the free DNA present in the ductal fluid, while the intact cells can be used for cytologic studies...

Department of Pediatrics, Walter Reed Army Medical Center, USA, Washington, DC, USA
Cancer Genet Cytogenet 135:182-6. 2002..026). We conclude that although chromosomal and microsatellite instability are uncommon in PTC, tumors with chromosomal aberrations are more likely to be associated with invasion...
