Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine breast, ovarian, and colorectal cancers show the highest copy number-driven gene expression among 8783 cases from 22 cancer types, with breast camcer presenting the strongest one. Squalene epoxidase overexpression is more prevalent in aggressive breast cancer, and is an independent prognostic factor of unfavorable outcome. Squalene epoxidase inhibition results in a copy-dosage correlated decrease in cell viability, and in a noticeable increase in replication time, only in lines with detectable Squalene epoxidase transcript Homo sapiens
