WRI Breast Cancer
EMSL Project ID
31296
Abstract
The aim of this pilot project is to obtain comprehensive data on protein expression from breast tumor samples in the WRI tissue repository from patients that are stratified by having negative or positive lymph nodes. This is one of the components of a broader project whose goal is to obtain comprehensive molecular data on breast tumors, stroma, and sentinel nodes using all available measurement modalities including gene expression, genomic abnormalities, epigenetic properties such as methylation state, protein abundance, and protein localization. This project will focus on identifying the proteins expressed in breast tumors and determining the relative abundance of the expressed proteins as a function of menopausal status and/or lymph node status. These data will be correlated with measurements of gene expression obtained in other phases of this project.
