“…Eighteen % and 38% cDNAs were differentially expressed by over 15-fold in the benign and malignant breast tumor cell lines, respectively. Amongst the cDNAs expressed at a higher level in the R37-OPN cells than in the R37 cells were previously characterized breast cancer-associated genes such as TPTI [ 14 ], ARNT [ 15 ], CSFIR [ 16 ], MDM2 [ 17 ], CD44 [ 18 ], Cxcr4 [ 19 ], RAN GTPase [ 20 ], cytokeratin 20 (CK20) [ 21 ], Ki67 [ 22 ], with fold increases of 8, 8, 9, 9, 11, 23, 25, 32, and 45, respectively. Amongst the cDNAs expressed at a lower level in R37-OPN cells were previously characterized cancer suppressor genes PTEN [ 23 ], ATM [ 24 ] and BRCA1 associated protein 1 [ 24 ] with decreases of 19, 23 and 23 fold, respectively.…”
