KIT-D816V oncogenic activity is controlled by the juxtamembrane docking site Y568-Y570
Mutation of KIT receptor tyrosine kinase at residue D816 results in ligand-independent constitutive kinase activity. This mutation occurs in most patients with mastocytosis, a myeloproliferative neoplasm, and ...

Gene expression profiling identifies sST2 as an effector of ErbB2-driven breast carcinoma cell motility, associated with metastasis
Overexpression of the ErbB2 receptor tyrosine kinase in breast cancer contributes to tumor development and is associated with poor prognosis. However, the mechanism by which ErbB2 might contribute to metastasi...

Open AccessA refined molecular taxonomy of breast cancer
The current histoclinical breast cancer classification is simple but imprecise. Several molecular classifications of breast cancers based on expression profiling have been proposed as alternatives. However, th...

Genome profiling of acute myelomonocytic leukemia: alteration of the MYB locus in MYST3-linked cases
The t(8;16)(p11;p13) is a rare translocation involved in de novo and therapy-related myelomonocytic and monocytic acute leukemia. It fuses two genes encoding histone acetyltransferases (HATs), MYST3 located at 8p...

Lobular and ductal carcinomas of the breast have distinct genomic and expression profiles
Invasive ductal carcinomas (IDCs) and invasive lobular carcinomas (ILCs) are the two major pathological types of breast cancer. Epidemiological and histoclinical data suggest biological differences, but little...

ERBB2 phosphorylation and trastuzumab sensitivity of breast cancer cell lines
Breast cancers that overexpress the ERBB2 tyrosine kinase receptor may be treated with the recombinant humanized monoclonal anti-ERBB2 antibody trastuzumab (herceptin). However, resistance to this targeted the...

Gene expression profiling of breast cell lines identifies potential new basal markers
A better molecular characterization of breast cell lines (BCL) may help discover new markers to apply to tumour samples. We performed gene and protein expression profiling of 31 BCL using whole-genome DNA micr...
