For over a decade, Mammary Cell News has been keeping the global scientific and medical communities informed about the latest research, reviews, and news in the field of mammary tissues. Our editors gather publications on the topic of mammary cell differentiation and characterization, as well as the progression and treatment of breast cancer. We also keep scientists up-to-date on the latest policy changes, job postings, and events.

Inhibiting β-Catenin Disables Nucleolar Functions in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

Investigators demonstrated that LAS1 like ribosome biogenesis factor protein expression was significantly elevated in TNBC patients, and it functionally was important for mammary tumor growth in xenograft models and enabled invasive attributes.

BCDIN3D RNA Methyltransferase Stimulates Aldolase C Expression and Glycolysis through Let-7 MicroRNA in Breast Cancer Cells

In order to uncover metabolic pathways regulated by BCDIN3D in cancer, we performed an unbiased analysis of the metabolome, transcriptome, and proteome of breast cancer cells depleted for BCDIN3D.

Involvement of Actin Cytoskeletal Modifications in the Inhibition of Triple Negative Breast Cancer Growth and Metastasis by Nimbolide

The authors demonstrated the growth and metastasis inhibitory potential of nimbolide on TNBC cells. Nimbolide inhibited cell proliferation, migratory, and invasive abilities of TNBC cells and also changed the shape of MDA-MB-231 cells, which is correlated with cytoskeletal changes including actin depolymerization.
