|
| Investigators identified that SF3B1 mutations in mammary epithelial and breast cancer cells induced a recurrent pattern of aberrant splicing leading to activation of AKT and NF-kB, enhanced cell migration, and accelerated tumorigenesis. [Journal of Clinical Investigation] |

|
|
| Scientists demonstrated that with direct cell-cell contact, tumor microenvironment-derived endothelial cells provided the Notch ligand Jagged1 to neighboring breast cancer stem cells, leading to Notch1-dependent upregulation of Zeb1. [Nature Communications] |
|
|
|
| By performing a mouse-human cross species analysis between the TAp63 metastatic mammary adenocarcinoma mouse model and models of human breast cancer progression, researchers identified two TAp63-regulated oncogenic lncRNAs, TROLL-2 and TROLL-3. [Nature Communications] |
|
|
|
| Investigators presented a strategy for determining the labeling efficiency of quantum dot labeling of HER2 in overexpressing breast cancer cells. [Nano Letters] |
|
|
|
| Researchers uncovered that the transmembrane proline rich γ-carboxyglutamic acid protein 4 (PRRG4) promoted breast cancer metastasis by downregulating Robo1. [Oncogene] |
|
|
|
| Scientists elaborated on the role of oxidative stress-responsive kinase 1 (OSR1) in breast cancer metastasis and the specific regulatory mechanism. [Oncogene] |
|
|
|
| Factor that bound to the inducer of short transcripts‐1 (FBI-1) enhanced the resistance of TNBC cells to chemotherapeutic agents by repressing the expression of micoRNA-30c targeting the pregnane X receptor (PXR). [Cell Death & Disease] |
|
|
|
| As checkpoint kinase 1 (Chk1) was associated with the DNA damage response (DDR), researchers investigated the effect of miR-320c on DDR in TNBC cells. [Oncogenesis] |
|
|
|
| Using human TNBC cell lines for in vitro studies, investigators found that, unlike native tumor–endothelial cells extracellular vesicles (EVs), anti-IL-3R-EVs increased apoptosis and reduced cell viability and migration. [Oncogenesis] |
|
|
|
| Scientists uncovered that estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer cells cultured within extracellular matrix -scaffolds had an increase in ER signaling that occured via a MAPK-dependent, but estrogen-independent manner. [Molecular Cancer Research] |
|
|
|
| Researchers probed the importance of O-GlcNAc transferase activity for the survival of tamoxifen-sensitive and tamoxifen-resistant breast cancer cells. [Scientific Reports] |
|
|
|
|
| The authors discuss novel bispecific antibodies for TNBC and emerging TNBC targets for future bispecific antibody development. [Trends in Cancer] |
|
|
|
| Investigators highlight various models of lymphatic metastasis, their potential pitfalls, and other tools available to study lymphatic metastasis including imaging modalities and -omic studies. [Journal of Mammary Gland Biology and Neoplasia] |

|
| Savran Technologies, Inc. announced the completion of an important Phase II multi-center clinical trial conducted at 20 sites across the country utilizing its unique detection platform. [Savran Technologies, Inc.(BusinessWire Inc.)] |
