Abstract

Women carrying germ-line mutations in BRCA1 are strongly predisposed to developing breast cancers with characteristic features also observed in sporadic basal-like breast cancers. They appear as high-grade tumors with high proliferation rates and pushing borders. On the molecular level, they are negative for hormone receptors and ERBB2, display frequent TP53 mutations, and express basal epithelial markers. To study the role of BRCA1 and P53 loss of function in breast cancer development, we generated conditional mouse models with tissue-specific mutation of Brca1 and/or p53 in basal epithelial cells. Somatic loss of both BRCA1 and p53 resulted in the rapid and efficient formation of highly proliferative, poorly differentiated, estrogen receptor-negative mammary carcinomas with pushing borders and increased expression of basal epithelial markers, reminiscent of human basal-like breast cancer. BRCA1- and p53-deficient mouse mammary tumors exhibit dramatic genomic instability, and their molecular signatures resemble those of human BRCA1 -mutated breast cancers. Thus, these tumors display important hallmarks of hereditary breast cancers in BRCA1 -mutation carriers.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
