Mutations of the BRAF gene in human cancer
…, GJ Riggins, DD Bigner, G Palmieri, A Cossu… - Nature, 2002 - nature.com
Cancers arise owing to the accumulation of mutations in critical genes that alter normal
programmes of cell proliferation, differentiation and death. As the first stage of a systematic …

BRAF/NRAS mutation frequencies among primary tumors and metastases in patients with melanoma
M Colombino, M Capone, A Lissia, A Cossu… - Journal of Clinical …, 2012 - flore.unifi.it
The prevalence of BRAF, NRAS, and p16CDKN2A mutations during melanoma progression
remains inconclusive. We investigated the prevalence and distribution of mutations in these …

Expression profiling of purified normal human luminal and myoepithelial breast cells: identification of novel prognostic markers for breast cancer
The normal duct-lobular system of the breast is lined by two epithelial cell types, inner
luminal secretory cells and outer contractile myoepithelial cells. We have generated …

[PDF][PDF] A functional mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 signaling is indispensable for c‐Myc‐driven hepatocarcinogenesis
Amplification and/or activation of the c‐Myc proto‐oncogene is one of the leading genetic
events along hepatocarcinogenesis. The oncogenic potential of c‐Myc has been proven …

X-inactivation patch size in human female tissue confounds the assessment of tumor clonality
Most models of tumorigenesis assume that tumors are monoclonal in origin. This conclusion
is based largely on studies using X chromosome-linked markers in females. One important …

Identification of a novel candidate gene, CASC2, in a region of common allelic loss at chromosome 10q26 in human endometrial cancer
Allelic deletions, which are suggestive for the presence of tumor suppressor genes, represent
a common event in endometrial cancer (EC). Previous loss‐of‐heterozygosity studies for …
