Description
Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS) has identified HNF1B located at chromosome 17q12 as foremost risk gene for prostate cancer susceptibility in multi-ethnic populations. This thesis characterises the HNF1B transcript variants along with defining their expression pattern and functional attributes in prostate cancer. Future research will enable the discovery of the molecular mechanism of their actions and whether targeting these HNF1B transcript variants in cancer may prove a useful therapeutic strategy.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
Full-text downloads:
Full-text downloads displays the total number of times this work’s files (e.g., a PDF) have been downloaded from QUT ePrints as well as the number of downloads in the previous 365 days. The count includes downloads for all files if a work has more than one.
