The Role of Alternatively spliced Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 2 Isoforms in Breast Cancer

Recent genome-wide association studies identified FGFR2 as one of breast cancer susceptibility genes. FGFR2 expression was down-regulated in breast carcinomas when compared with paired normal epithelium. Stable retroviral transduction of FGFR2-IIIb and its alternatively spliced FGFR2-IIIc variants w...
