Microarray data to accompany Gauger et al. (2009) Cancer Cell International paper A treated X untreated design was used whereby immortalized human mammary epithelial cell lines (TERT cells) were modified to stably express an siRNA that knocked down SFRP1 expression. These "treated" cells were label...

Cancer progression is mediated by processes that are also important in wound repair. As a result, cancers have been conceptualized as overhealing wounds or "wounds that do not heal," and gene expression signatures reflective of wound repair have shown value as predictors of breast cancer s...

Results: Normal tissue contamination caused misclassification of tumors in all predictors, but different breast cancer predictors showed different susceptibility to normal tissue bias. Sensitivity and negative predictive value (NPV) of the PAM50 assay was improved by accounting for normal tissue. C...

Purpose: Previous studies of breast tissue gene expression have demonstrated that the extratumoral microenvironment has substantial variability across individuals, some of which can be attributed to epidemiologic factors. To evaluate how mammographic density (MD) and breast tissue composition relat...

Activation of inflammatory pathways is one plausible mechanism underlying the association between obesity and increased breast cancer risk. However, macrophage infiltration and local biomarkers of inflammation in breast adipose tissue have seldom been studied in association with obesity. Gene expres...

A microarray targeting promoters of cancer-related genes was used to evaluate DNA methylation at 935 CpG sites in 517 invasive breast tumors from the Carolina Breast Cancer Study (CBCS), a population-based study of invasive breast cancer. Concensus clustering using methylation (β) values for the 16...
