    Targeted Intervention of NF2–YAP Signaling Axis in CD24-Overexpressing Cells Contributes to Encouraging Therapeutic Effects in TNBC

    CD24high cells accounted for the vast majority of TNBC cells, and were insensitive to Taxol but sensitive to ferroptosis agonists and effectively escaped phagocytosis by tumor-associated macrophages.

    KMT5A-Methylated SNIP1 Promotes Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Metastasis by Activating YAP Signaling

    Researchers identify that smad nuclear-interacting protein 1 (SNIP1) was a non-histone substrate of lysine methyltransferase KMT5A, which underwent KMT5A-mediated mono-methylation and promoted breast cancer cell growth, invasion and lung metastasis.

    Extracellular Vesicles from Triple Negative Breast Cancer Promote Pro-Inflammatory Macrophages Associated with Better Clinical Outcome

    Scientists showed that TNBCs released extracellular vesicles and soluble molecules promoting monocyte differentiation toward distinct macrophage fates.

    ROR Activation by Nobiletin Enhances Antitumor Efficacy via Suppression of IκB/NF-κB Signaling in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

    The authors identified several TNBC cell lines that were sensitive to nobiletin (NOB), by itself or in combination. Cell and xenograft experiments showed that NOB significantly inhibited TNBC cell proliferation and motility in vitro and in vivo.

    Aberrant Promoter Methylation Contributes to LRIG1 Silencing in Basal/Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

    Leucine-rich repeat and immunoglobulin-like domain 1 (LRIG1) gene expression, protein abundance, and methylation enrichment were examined by quantitative reverse-transcription PCR, immunoblotting, and methylation immunoprecipitation, respectively, in breast cancer cell lines in vitro.

    Establishment and Characterization of Equine Mammary Organoids Using a Method Translatable to Other Non-Traditional Model Species

    Researchers established equine mammary organoids (EqMaOs) from cryopreserved mammary tissue, in which mammary tissue fragments were isolated and embedded into a 3D matrix to produce EqMaOs.

    PTHrP Induces STAT5 Activation, Secretory Differentiation and Accelerates Mammary Tumor Development

    Investigators developed a tetracycline-regulated, mouse mammary tumor virus-driven model of parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) overexpression in mammary epithelial cells.

    GATA3 and MDM2 Are Synthetic Lethal in Estrogen Receptor-Positive Breast Cancers

    Depletion and pharmacological inhibition of mouse double minute 2 homolog (MDM2) significantly impaired tumor growth in GATA3-deficient models in vitro, in vivo and in patient-derived organoids/xenograft harboring GATA3 somatic mutations.

    Ketone-Selenoesters as Potential Anticancer and Multidrug Resistance Modulation Agents in 2D and 3D Ovarian and Breast Cancer In Vitro Models

    Scientists tested the anticancer and multidrug resistance modulation activity of 15 selenocompounds. These compounds induced oxidation stress, inhibited P-glycoprotein transport activity and altered ABC gene expression.

    Wnt Signaling in Triple-Negative Breast Cancers: Its Roles in Molecular Subtyping and Cancer Cell Stemness and Its Crosstalk with Non-Coding RNAs

    The authors highlight the dysregulation of Wnt signaling in TNBCs and its potential biological roles in molecular subtyping and stemness traits of specific subtypes.

    Abstract
    INDUSTRY AND POLICY NEWS

    Health Canada Approves KEYTRUDA®
    (Pembrolizumab) for the Treatment of Adult Patients with High-Risk Early-Stage Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) in Combination with Chemotherapy as Neoadjuvant Treatment, and Then Continued as Monotherapy as Adjuvant Treatment after Surgery

    Merck announced that Health Canada has granted approval for KEYTRUDA® (pembrolizumab), Merck’s anti-PD-1 therapy, as a treatment for adult patients with high-risk early-stage TNBC in combination with chemotherapy.
