The NRG1 gene is frequently silenced by methylation in breast cancers and is a strong candidate for the 8p tumour suppressor gene

Neuregulin-1 (NRG1) is both a candidate oncogene and candidate tumour suppressor gene. It encodes the heregulins and other mitogenic ligands for the ERBB family, but it also causes apoptosis in NRG1-expressing cells.
