Abstract

Mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases act as transducers of extracellular signaling via tyrosine kinase-growth factor receptors and G-protein-linked receptors to elements regulating transcription. The activity, abundance, and localization of MAP kinase was investigated in normal and malignant neoplasia of the breast. In carcinoma of the breast, MAP kinase was heavily phosphorylated on tyrosyl residues and its activity elevated 5-10-fold over benign conditions, such as fibroadenoma and fibrocystic disease. By in situ reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, hyperexpression of MAP kinase mRNA can be localized to malignant, epithelial cells. Metastatic cells within involved lymph nodes of patients with breast cancer also display hyperexpression of MAP kinase. In spite of persistent activation via phosphorylation, MAP kinase expression is upregulated 5-20-fold and this hyperexpression may be a critical element to initiation as well as the metastatic potential of various forms of human breast cancer.

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.
