1. This study aimed to molecularly define and determine the contribution of two rare, apparently novel CHEK2 Large Genomic Rearrangements, among Greek breast cancer patients. PMID: 29785007
2. The CHEK2 Y390C mutation induced drug resistance of triple-negative breast cancer cells to chemotherapeutic drugs. PMID: 29761796
3. CHEK2 Germ Line Mutation is not associated with Familial and Sporadic Breast Cancer. PMID: 29479983
4. Chk1 and Chk2 are significantly expressed in human sperm. In cases of sperm DNA damage, upregulated Chk1 expression may enhance sperm apoptosis leading to asthenospermia, while increased Chk2 expression may inhibit spermatogenesis, resulting in oligospermia. PMID: 29658237
5. CHK1 and CHK2, along with their activated forms, are frequently expressed in HGSC effusions, with higher expression following chemotherapy exposure. Their expression is related to survival. PMID: 29804637
6. This is the first article to report that an identical germline mutation of the CHEK2 gene, p.R180C, exists in both NF1 and NF2 patients. PMID: 29879026
7. Results suggested that there was a correlation between mutation of the CHEK2 gene and gastric cancer. PMID: 29067458
8. Truncating variants in PALB2, ATM and CHEK2, but not XRCC2, were associated with increased breast cancer risk. PMID: 28779002
9. Our results identify a novel link between XRRA1 and the ATM/CHK1/2 pathway and suggest that XRRA1 is involved in a DNA damage response that drives radio- and chemoresistance by regulating the ATM/CHK1/2 pathway. PMID: 29082250
10. BRCA2 and CHEK2 play an important role in the genetic susceptibility to urinary tract cancers. PMID: 27632928
11. Checkpoint kinase 2 (Chk2) inhibition suppressed C-terminal acetylation of p53 and delayed the induction of p53-target genes under heat stress (HS). Chk2 inhibition failed to inhibit apoptosis induced by HS, indicating that Chk2 was dispensable for p53-dependent apoptosis under HS. Chk2 inhibition abrogated G2/M arrest and promoted cell death induced by HS in cells with p53 defects. PMID: 28733865
12. The inhibition of CHK2 expression reduced detachment-induced apoptosis but did not influence the ability of cells to migrate and invade. This suggests that CHK2 could inhibit tumor progression and metastatic potential by enhancing anoikis. PMID: 29486482
13. These data suggest that the CHEK2 c.1100delC mutation is associated with an increased risk for MBC in the Finnish population. PMID: 28874143
14. Data suggest that mediator complex subunit 1 (Med1/TRAP220) is a target for checkpoint kinase 2 (Chk2)-mediated phosphorylation and may play a role in cellular DNA damage responses by mediating proper induction of gene transcription upon DNA damage. PMID: 28430840
15. This report proposes a novel strategy of Twist1 suppression through Chk2 induction, which prevents metastatic dissemination and promotes premature senescence in p53-defective invasive cancer cells. PMID: 28498365
16. This study provides evidence that hepatocarcinogenesis with lagging chromosomes elicits the expression of DNA damage response protein Chk2. Thus, the overexpression of Chk2 and its mislocalisation within structures of the mitotic spindle contribute to sustained cell division and chromosome missegregation. PMID: 28360097
17. PI3K kinase activity is necessary for maintaining 4E-BP1 stability. Our results also suggest a novel biological role for 4E-BP1 in regulating cell cycle G2 checkpoint in response to IR stress, in association with controlling CHK2 phosphorylation. PMID: 28539821
18. Data show that the checkpoint kinase 1/2 (Chk1/Chk2) inhibitor prexasertib (LY2606368) inhibits cell viability in B-/T-ALL cell lines. PMID: 27438145
19. Results confirm the predicted multiplicative relationship between CHEK2*1100delC and the common low-penetrance susceptibility variants for breast cancer. PMID: 27711073
20. Results show that Chk2 expression is regulated by 14-3-3s in G2-M arrest for non-homologous end joining repair, likely via PARP1. PMID: 28087741
21. Results indicate that CHEK2 possesses non-cell-autonomous tumor suppressor functions, and present the Chk2 protein as an important mediator in the functional interplay between breast carcinomas and their stromal fibroblasts through repressing the expression/secretion of SDF-1 and IL-6. PMID: 27484185
22. Variants in CHEK2 were associated with moderate risks of breast cancer. PMID: 28418444
23. In this paper, we describe an extension to the BOADICEA model to incorporate the effects of intermediate risk variants for breast cancer, specifically loss of function mutations in the three genes for which the evidence for association is clearest and the risk estimates most precise: PALB2, CHEK2 and ATM. PMID: 27464310
24. SIAH2 regulates CHK2 basal turnover, with important consequences on cell-cycle control and on the ability of hypoxia to alter the DNA damage-response pathway in cancer cells. PMID: 26751770

26. The MCM2-MCM6 complex is required for CHK2 chromatin loading and its phosphorylation to DNA damage response in squamous cell carcinoma cells. PMID: 27964702
27. Based on analyses of approximately 87,000 controls and patients with breast cancer from population- and hospital-based studies, our best estimate for the relative risk of invasive breast cancer for carriers of the 1100delC mutation in CHEK2, compared with noncarriers, was 2.26 (95% CI, 1.90 to 2.69). PMID: 27269948
28. The G2 damage checkpoint prevents stable recruitment of the chromosome-packaging-machinery components condensin complex I and II onto the chromatin even in the presence of an active Cdk1. PMID: 27792460
