|
| Scientists reported that estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancers had lower hyaluronan synthase 2 antisense RNA 1 (HAS2-AS1) expression compared to ER-negative tumors. The survival of patients with ER-negative tumors was higher when the expression of HAS2-AS1 was elevated. [Matrix Biology] |
|
|
|
| The authors showed that high FER levels were associated with improved outcomes after adjuvant taxane-based combination chemotherapy in high-risk, HER2-negative patients. [Cell Reports] |
|
|
|
| Investigators showed that when Hsp70-binding protein 1 (HspBP1) was either knocked down or overexpressed in BRCA1-proficient breast cancer cells, there were profound changes in tumorigenesis, including anchorage-independent cell growth in vitro and in tumor formation in xenograft models.

|
|
|
| qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of circular RNA_0006014 (hsa_circ_0006014) and related genes. MTT, colony formation and Transwell assays were used to explore the potential biological functions of hsa_circ_0006014 in breast cancer cells. [Aging] |
|
|
|
| Breast cancer-related miRNA and mRNA microarray data sets were retrieved for differential analyses. Subsequently, the expression patterns of miR-4731-5p, PAICS, and FAK in breast cancer tissues and cells were determined. [Cell Death Discovery] |
|
|
|
| The authors presented the first report that circular RNA RPAP2 (circRPAP2) was downregulated in breast cancer tissue samples and cell lines. [Cell Death Discovery] |
|
|
|
| Researchers analyzed in vitro the effect of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA)18:1 and the LPA receptor 1 (LPAR1), LPAR3, and LPAR2 inhibitor Ki16425 on cellular functions of different human breast cancer cell lines and the human breast epithelial cell line, as well as Interleukin 8 (IL-8), IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha cytokine secretion after LPA-incubation.

|
|
|
| The role of multiple epidermal growth factor like domains 11 (MEGF11) was studied in human TNBC MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-468 cells by overexpressing MEGF11 using non-attached culture. [Life Sciences] |
|
|
|
| FHS-1 was synthesized utilizing excited-state intramolecular proton transfer to detect H2S in MCF-7 cells and investigated the effects of varying concentrations of NaHS on apoptosis. [Future Medicinal Chemistry] |
|
|
|
|
| Investigators discuss in detail the divergence of early metastases as circulating tumor cells and the involvement of miRNAs as detectable blood-based diagnostic biomarkers that warrant a timely screening of cancer. [Molecular Cancer] |
|
|
|
| The authors present how field cancerization presents itself pathologically and molecularly within histologically normal peri-tumoral tissues and discuss how using peri-tumoral tissues can affect research. [Journal of Pathology] |

|
| Ion Beam Applications S.A. (IBA), and the University Medical Center (UMC) Groningen announced a four-year research collaboration agreement towards the development of a new FLASH irradiation protocol for the treatment of early-stage breast cancer. [Ion Beam Applications S.A.] |

|
| BriaCell Therapeutics Corp., announced that its novel off-the-shelf (OTS) personalized immunotherapy, Bria-OTSâ„¢, is currently being manufactured at a cGMP facility and undergoing quality control testing for the potential upcoming clinical trial for patients with advanced breast cancer.
