Abstract:GATA3 has been identified as one of the most frequently mutated genes in breast cancer. In the METABRIC cohort, among 1,980 patient cases, 230 breast cancers harbored GATA3 mutations (~12%). 75% of the GATA mutations were observed in luminal breast tumors (47% in luminal A, 28% in luminal B). The recent genomic data in metastatic breast cancer also showed that the frequency of GATA3 somatic mutations was even higher in the metastatic breast cancer cohort. Lung, lymph nodes, and brain metastases were observed i… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
