ZNF703 gene amplification at 8p12 specifies luminal B breast cancer
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Luminal B breast cancers represent a fraction of oestrogen receptor (ER)-positive tumours associated with poor recurrence-free and disease-specific survival in all adjuvant systemic treatment categories including hormone therapy alone. Identification of specific signalling pathways driving luminal B biology is paramount to improve treatment. We have studied 100 luminal breast tumours by combined analysis of genome copy number aberrations and gene expression. We show that amplification of the ZNF703 gene, located in chromosomal region 8p12, preferentially occurs in luminal B tumours. We explored the functional role of ZNF703 in luminal B tumours by overexpressing ZNF703 in the MCF7 luminal cell line. Using mass spectrometry, we identified ZNF703 as a co-factor of a nuclear complex comprising DCAF7, PHB2 and NCOR2. ZNF703 expression results in the activation of stem cell-related gene expression leading to an increase in cancer stem cells. Moreover, we show that ZNF703 is implicated in the regulation of ER and E2F1 transcription factor. These findings point out the prominent role of ZNF703 in transcription modulation, stem cell regulation and luminal B oncogenesis.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
