Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 mRNA expression in human breast cancer: a meta-analysis
Although poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP1) inhibition is a recent promising therapy in breast cancer, PARP1 expression in this disease is not known. Using DNA microarray and array-based comparative genomic hybridization (arrayCGH), we examined PARP1 mRNA expression and copy number alterations in...

Summary: | Although poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP1) inhibition is a recent promising therapy in breast cancer, PARP1 expression in this disease is not known. Using DNA microarray and array-based comparative genomic hybridization (arrayCGH), we examined
PARP1
mRNA expression and copy number alterations in 326 invasive breast cancer samples and normal breast (NB) samples. A meta-analysis was performed on a large public retrospective gene expression data set (
n
= 2,485) to analyze correlation between
PARP1
mRNA expression and molecular subtypes and clinico-pathological parameters.
PARP1
was overexpressed in 58% of cancers, and its expression was heterogeneous between tumors. ArrayCGH data revealed an association between mRNA overexpression and gain/amplification at the
PARP1
locus (
