Promoter hypermethylation of ARID1A gene is responsible for its low mRNA expression in many invasive breast cancers.

ARID1A (AT-rich interactive domain 1A) has recently been identified as a tumor suppressor gene. Its mRNA expression is significantly low in many breast cancers; this is often associated with more aggressive phenotypes. However, the underlying molecular mechanism for its low expression has not been f...
