| Abstract |
Nuclear receptor binding protein 1 (NRBP1) is a highly conserved protein that is ubiquitously expressed across cell types in humans. NRBP1 has been recently identified as an adaptor protein. It has been suggested that it plays important roles in cellular homeostasis and the pathophysiology of cancer. To determine whether NRBP1 is involved in the pathophysiology of breast cancer, we performed a correlation study between the expression level of NRBP1 and the clinicopathological features in 92 breast cancer patients. A strong correlation was detected between NRBP1 expression and advanced histopathology grades, tumor, node, and metastasis stage, tumor diameter, lymph node involvement, as well as the recurrence of breast cancer in 92 tested patients. The tumor tissues from patients also expressed lower NRBP1 than did adjacent healthy tissues. Furthermore, we overexpressed NRBP1 in MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell lines and found NRBP1 upregulation-inhibited cell proliferation by using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay. Blocking the autocrine Wnt signaling pathway by LGK974 could remove the NRBP1-overexpression-induced inhibition in breast cancer cells. The results of this study suggest that NRBP1 plays a tumor-suppressive role in breast cancer pathophysiology, which likely acts through the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 31 December 2015.
All research outputs
#15,739,529
of 25,373,627 outputs
Outputs from OncoTargets and therapy
#836
of 3,016 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#209,661
of 395,408 outputs
Outputs of similar age from OncoTargets and therapy
#31
of 91 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,373,627 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 37th percentile – i.e., 37% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,016 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.9. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 70% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 395,408 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 45th percentile – i.e., 45% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 91 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 63% of its contemporaries.
