Yinsheng Wang and his former graduate student Yan Zou reported that the expression and the post-translational modifications of HMGA1 proteins in human breast cancer tissues are correlated with the development of malignancy. This finding may lead to the discovery of molecular biomarkers for the diagnosis of breast tumors.
