      Haiman, Christopher A; Hankinson, Susan Elizabeth; Spiegelman, Donna Lynn; Colditz, Graham A.; Willett, Walter C.; Speizer, Frank Erwin; Brown, Myles Avery; Hunter, David J. (BioMed Central, 2000)
      We assessed the association between a glutamine repeat polymorphism in AIB1 and breast cancer risk in a case-control study (464 cases, 624 controls) nested within the Nurses' Health Study cohort. We observed no association ...
    • Primate-specific Evolution of an LDLR Enhancer 

      Wang, Qian-fei; Prabhakar, Shyam; Wang, Qianben; Moses, Alan M; Chanan, Sumita; Eisen, Michael B; Cheng, Jan-Fang; Rubin, Edward M; Boffelli, Dario; Brown, Myles Avery (BioMed Central, 2006)
      Background: Sequence changes in regulatory regions have often been invoked to explain phenotypic divergence among species, but molecular examples of this have been difficult to obtain. Results: In this study we identified ...
    • Quality control, modeling, and visualization of CRISPR screens with MAGeCK-VISPR 

      Li, Wei; Köster, Johannes; Xu, Han; Chen, Chen-Hao; Xiao, Tengfei; Liu, Jun S.; Brown, Myles; Liu, X. Shirley (BioMed Central, 2015)
      High-throughput CRISPR screens have shown great promise in functional genomics. We present MAGeCK-VISPR, a comprehensive quality control (QC), analysis, and visualization workflow for CRISPR screens. MAGeCK-VISPR defines ...
    • Response and resistance to BET bromodomain inhibitors in triple negative breast cancer 

      Shu, Shaokun; Lin, Charles Y.; He, Housheng Hansen; Witwicki, Robert M.; Tabassum, Doris P.; Roberts, Justin M.; Janiszewska, Michalina; Huh, Sung Jin; Liang, Yi; Ryan, Jeremy; Doherty, Ernest; Mohammed, Hisham; Guo, Hao; Stover, Daniel G.; Ekram, Muhammad B.; Brown, Jonathan; D'Santos, Clive; Krop, Ian E.; Dillon, Deborah; McKeown, Michael; Ott, Christopher; Qi, Jun; Ni, Min; Rao, Prakash K.; Duarte, Melissa; Wu, Shwu-Yuan; Chiang, Cheng-Ming; Anders, Lars; Young, Richard A.; Winer, Eric; Letai, Antony; Barry, William T.; Carroll, Jason S.; Long, Henry; Brown, Myles; Liu, X. Shirley; Meyer, Clifford A.; Bradner, James E.; Polyak, Kornelia (2015)
      Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a heterogeneous and clinically aggressive disease for which there is no targeted therapy1-3. BET bromodomain inhibitors, which have shown efficacy in several models of cancer4-6, ...
    • The Role of Coactivators in Oestrogen Action 

      Brown, Myles Avery; de Mora, J.F. (BioMed Central, 2000)
    • The role of TRIM24 during prostate cancer progression

    • Sequence determinants of improved CRISPR sgRNA design 

      Xu, Han; Xiao, Tengfei; Chen, Chen-Hao; Li, Wei; Meyer, Clifford; Wu, Qiu; Wu, Di; Cong, Le; Zhang, Feng; Liu, Jun; Brown, Myles A.; Liu, Xiaole (Shirley) Shirley (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, 2015)
      The CRISPR/Cas9 system has revolutionized mammalian somatic cell genetics. Genome-wide functional screens using CRISPR/Cas9-mediated knockout or dCas9 fusion-mediated inhibition/activation (CRISPRi/a) are powerful techniques ...
    • TCF4 and CDX2, major transcription factors for intestinal function, converge on the same cis-regulatory regions 

      Verzi, M. P.; Hatzis, Phillip Evangelos; Sulahian, R.; Philips, J.; Schuijers, J.; Shin, H.; Freed, E.; Lynch, J. P.; Dang, D. T.; Brown, Myles A.; Clevers, H.; Liu, Xiaole (Shirley) Shirley; Shivdasani, Ramesh Arjun (Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2010)
      Surprisingly few pathways signal between cells, raising questions about mechanisms for tissue-specific responses. In particular, Wnt ligands signal in many mammalian tissues, including the intestinal epithelium, where ...
    • Transcriptomic classification of genetically engineered mouse models of breast cancer identifies human subtype counterparts
