BRCA2 and breast cancer: In addition to its role in regulating cell cycle and mitosis, studies have reported AURKA involvements in oncogenic signaling in suppressing BRCA1 and BRCA2. We aimed to characterize AURKA protein and mRNA expression in a breast cancer cohort of the young, investigating its relation to clinico-pathologic features and survival, and exploring age-related AURKA-associated biological processes.
