| Scientists demonstrated that XIST loss impaired the differentiation of human mammary stem cells and promoted the emergence of highly tumorigenic and metastatic carcinomas. [Cell] |

|
| The authors identified AXL overexpression as an essential mechanism of trastuzumab resistance. AXL orchestrated epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and heterodimerized with HER2, leading to activation of PI3K/AKT and MAPK pathways in a ligand-independent manner. [Science Advances] |
|
|
|
| Investigators reported an in vivo model based on xenografted zebrafish embryos where they selected for progressively invasive subpopulations of MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells. [Molecular Biomedicine] |
|
|
|
| Researchers showed that Kindlin-2, a focal adhesion protein, was critically involved in the promotion of androgen receptor signaling and breast cancer progression. [Cell Death & Disease] |
|
|
|
| Scientists demonstrated that tumor necrosis factor receptor associated factor 4 (TRAF4) regulated Eg5 ubiquitination and contributed to Eg5-mediated breast cancer proliferation and inhibited breast cancer apoptosis. [Frontiers in Oncology] |
|
|
|
| The authors assayed for, and observed, an association between Galectin-9 expression and invasiveness of breast cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. [ACS Chemical Biology] |
|
|
|
| Investigators reported a small molecule, Carbazole Blue, that bound itself to DNA and inhibited cancer growth and metastasis by targeting DNA-related processes that tumor cells use but not the normal cells. [Communications Biology] |
|
|
|
| Researchers found that G-protein-coupled receptor 110 (GPR110) was highly expressed in TNBC and GPR110 played a key role in TNBC progression by engaging the RAS signaling pathway, via Gαs activation. [Cell Death Discovery] |
|
|
|
| Scientists investigated the mechanism of high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) through receptors for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) on cell migration/invasion and programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression in breast cancer cells. [BMC Cancer] |
|
|
|
| The authors explored the expression of miR-379-5p and its mechanisms of affecting proliferation, migration, and invasion in breast cancer. [Thoracic Cancer] |

|
High nuclear receptor corepressor 2 (NCOR2) in the tumors of patients with breast cancer predicted chemotherapy refractoriness, tumor recurrence and poor prognosis. [Nature Cancer] |
| | |
|
|
| Investigators discuss the function and highlight the existing inhibitors of histone deacetylase 3 in breast cancer pathogenesis and therapy. [Medical Oncology] |

|
| Aileron Therapeutics announced it has treated the first patients in its Phase Ib randomized, controlled clinical trial evaluating ALRN-6924 to protect against chemotherapy-induced bone marrow toxicities, as well as other toxicities in patients with p53-mutated breast cancer.

|
| The Breast Cancer Society of Canada announced the recipients of their first-ever Breast Cancer Research request for proposals. Researchers from across Canada were invited to submit projects last December for funding consideration in 2022 and beyond. [The Breast Cancer Society of Canada] |
