(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2008)
Introduction
The introduction of high-throughput technologies, also called -omics technologies, into epidemiology has raised the need for high-quality observational studies to reduce several sources of ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2007)
Following the publication of our recent article (Kapp et al., BMC Genomics 2006, 7:231), we (the authors) regrettably found several errors in the published Table 5. This correction article not only describes what makes the ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2007)
Background
The ATM protein is activated as a result of ionizing radiation, and genetic variants of the ATM gene may therefore affect the level of radiation-induced damage. Individuals heterozygous for ATM ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2007)
Introduction
Genomic alterations have been observed in breast carcinomas that affect the capacity of cells to regulate proliferation, signaling, and metastasis. Re-sequence studies have investigated candidate ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2007)
Introduction
Gene expression profiling of breast carcinomas has increased our understanding of the heterogeneous biology of this disease and promises to impact clinical care. The aim of this study was to ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2006)
Background
Previous studies demonstrated breast cancer tumor tissue samples could be classified into different subtypes based upon DNA microarray profiles. The most recent study presented evidence for the ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2006)
Background
Previously, a total of five breast cancer subtypes have been identified based on variation in gene expression patterns. These expression profiles were also shown to be associated with different ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2006)
Background
Individuals heterozygous for germline ATM mutations have been reported to have an increased risk for breast cancer but the role for ATM genetic variants for breast cancer risk has remained unclear. ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2006)
Background
Gene expression profiling has been used to define molecular phenotypes of complex diseases such as breast cancer. The luminal A and basal-like subtypes have been repeatedly identified and validated ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2006)
Background
The tumor suppressor gene p53 (TP53) controls numerous signaling pathways and is frequently mutated in human cancers. Novel p53 isoforms suggest alternative splicing as a regulatory feature of ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2006)
Background
Complex traits, which are under the influence of multiple and possibly interacting genes, have become a subject of new statistical methodological research. One of the greatest challenges facing ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2005)
Introduction
Existing methods to detect breast cancer in asymptomatic patients have limitations, and there is a need to develop more accurate and convenient methods. In this study, we investigated whether ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2005)
Background
While numerous studies have characterized primary ovarian tumors, little information is available regarding expression patterns of metastatic sites of this cancer. To define sets of genes that ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2003)
Introduction
The expression of the oestrogen receptor (ER) is one of the more important clinical parameters of breast cancer. However, the relationship between the ER and its ligand, oestradiol, and the ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2002)
Background
T7 based linear amplification of RNA is used to obtain sufficient antisense RNA for microarray expression profiling. We optimized and systematically evaluated the fidelity and reproducibility ...
