|
| The authors discovered that the osteogenic niche transiently and reversibly reduced estrogen receptor (ER) expression and activities specifically in bone micrometastases, leading to endocrine resistance. [Developmental Cell] |
|
|
|
| Scientists demonstrated that estrogen receptor alpha (ER) overexpression conferred resistance to estrogen deprivation through ER activation in human ER+ breast cancer cells and xenografts grown in mice. [Oncogene] |
|
|
|
| Utilizing a circRNA microarray dataset, four circRNAs were identified to be abnormally expressed in TNBC. Among them, circBACH2 was most significantly elevated in TNBC cancerous tissues and its high expression was positively correlated to the malignant progression of TNBC patients. [Cell Death & Disease] |
|
|
|
| Investigators demonstrated that drug-resistant cell-derived exosomes promoted the invasion of sensitive breast cancer cells. [Cell Death & Disease] |
|
|
|
| Scientists developed a non-cytotoxic JWA gene activating compound 1 (JAC1) to inhibit the proliferation of HER2-positive breast cancer cells in vitro and in vivo experimental models. [Cell Death Discovery] |
|
|
|
| A new spontaneously immortalized breast cancer cell line, DHSF-BR16 cells, was isolated from the primary invasive ductal carcinoma of a 74-years old female patient, treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy and disease-free five-years after adjuvant chemotherapy. [Scientific Reports] |
|
|
|
| Researchers identified new aptamers that bound to highly metastatic breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells using the cell-SELEX technology aided by high throughput sequencing. [Scientific Reports] |
|
|
|
|
| Scientists discuss known signaling mechanisms involved in the stimulation or prevention of breast cancer stem cells’ self-renewal, metastasis, and tumorigenesis. [Stem Cell Research & Therapy] |

| Reify Health, Inc. announced that AstraZeneca has selected StudyTeam, a patient enrollment management platform, to accelerate clinical development across its breast cancer investigational therapy portfolio. [Reify Health, Inc.] |
|
|
|
| Aion Therapeutic, Inc. announced that its proprietary and patented combinatorial mushroom preparations AION F7 and AION F8 showed high efficacy in killing HER2+ breast cancer cells, ER+/PR+ breast cancer cells, and TNBC cells by direct cytotoxicity. [Aion Therapeutic, Inc. (Cision US Inc.)] |
