DEAR1 is a dominant regulator of acinar morphogenesis and an independent predictor of local recurrence-free survival in early-onset breast cancer. by Steven T Lott, Nanyue Chen, Dawn S Chandler, Qifeng Yang, Luo Wang, Marivonne Rodriguez, Hongyan Xie, Seetharaman Balasenthil, Thomas A Buchholz, Aysegul A Sahin, Katrina Chaung, Baili Zhang, Shodimu-Emmanu Olufemi, Jinyun Chen, Henry Adams, Vimla Band, Adel K El-Naggar, Marsha L Frazier, Khandan Keyomarsi, Kelly K Hunt, Subrata Sen, Bruce Haffty, Stephen M Hewitt, Ralf Krahe, Ann McNeill Killary

“…Furthermore, immunohistochemical staining of a tissue microarray from a cohort of 123 young female breast cancer patients with a 20-year follow-up indicated that in early-onset breast cancer, DEAR1 expression serves as an independent predictor of local recurrence-free survival and correlates significantly with strong family history of breast cancer and the triple-negative phenotype (ER(-), PR(-), HER-2(-)) of breast cancers with poor prognosis.…”
