  1. [Illinois] Cancer Community Symposium 2012: DriveRank: Discovering Patient-Specific Driver Mutations

    Online Presentations | 09 May 2012 | Contributor(s):: Jack Pu Hou

    One of the pressing challenges in cancer genomics is to distinguish driver mutations (i.e. mutations involved in tumorigenesis) and passenger mutations (i.e. functionally neutral mutations). Current approaches to identifying driver mutations in cancer look for recurrent events in multiple...

  2. [Illinois] Cancer Community Symposium 2012: Elevated Estrogen Signaling Drives Tumorigenesis in a Novel Animal Model for Ovarian Epithelial Cancer

    Online Presentations | 09 May 2012 | Contributor(s):: Mary Jo Laws

    We generated a mouse model where aberrant estrogen receptor alpha (Esr1) signaling in the hypothalamo-pituitary-ovarian axis leads to ovarian tumorigenesis. In this model, termed Esr1d/d, the Esr1 gene is selectively deleted in the anterior pituitary. The Esr1d/d mice form palpable ovarian tumors...
