Is the high proportion of young age at breast cancer onset a unique feature of Asian breast cancer?
Women with breast cancer in Asian and Western countries are similar in many respects, but there are also differences, such as in the age at onset and the proportion of breast cancer occurring at younger ages. ...

Methylation of Aurora kinase A by MMSET reduces p53 stability and regulates cell proliferation and apoptosis
The histone methyltransferase multiple myeloma SET domain protein (MMSET/WHSC1) is highly expressed in diverse tumor types, and its expression appears to be involved in cell proliferation. In this study, we re...

Growth Arrest Line Mimicking Lymphoma Involvement: The Findings of 99mTc-MDP Bone SPECT/CT and Serial Bone Scan in a Child with Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma
Growth arrest lines appear as dense sclerotic lines parallel to the growth plate of long bones on radiography. We describe the case of a 9-year-old female with growth arrest lines initially masquerading as lym...

Prognostic implication of the tumor location according to molecular subtypes in axillary lymph node-positive invasive ductal cancer in a Korean population
Previous studies have not considered the axillary lymph node status when investigating the prognostic role of tumor location according to each molecular subtype. The present study aimed to investigate the prog...

Piperlongumine induces cell death through ROS-mediated CHOP activation and potentiates TRAIL-induced cell death in breast cancer cells
Piperlongumine (PL) has been shown to selectively induce apoptotic cell death in cancer cells via reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation. In this study, we characterized a molecular mechanism for PL-induc...

Open AccessPrevalence and predictors of loss of wild type BRCA1 in estrogen receptor positive and negative BRCA1-associated breast cancers
The majority of breast cancers that occur in BRCA1 mutation carriers (BRCA1 carriers) are estrogen receptor-negative (ER-). Therefore, it has been suggested that ER negativity is intrinsic to BRCA1 cancers and re...
