    TGFB2-AS1 Inhibits Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Progression via Interaction With SMARCA4 and Regulating Its Targets TGFB2 and SOX2

    Investigators revealed that TGFB2-AS1 impaired the breast cancer stem-like cell traits of TNBC cells in vitro and dramatically decreases tumorigenic frequency and lung metastasis in vivo.

    CircSEMA4B Inhibits the Progression of Breast Cancer by Encoding a Novel Protein SEMA4B-211aa and Regulating AKT Phosphorylation

    Researchers discovered a circRNA which encoded a novel protein, SEMA4B-211aa. Both circSEMA4B and SEMA4B-211aa were remarkably downregulated in breast cancer tissues and cell lines.

    Histocompatibility Minor 13 (HM13), Targeted by miR-760, Exerts Oncogenic Role in Breast Cancer by Suppressing Autophagy and Activating PI3K-AKT-mTOR Pathway

    Scientists uncovered that HM13 was highly expressed in breast cancer and correlated with worse prognosis. Downregulation of HM13 could suppress breast cancer cell proliferation and metastasis abilities.

    Loss of SNAI1 Induces Cellular Plasticity in Invasive Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Cells

    SNAI1 knockout cells exhibited plasticity in differentiation, drifting towards the luminal phenotype, gained stemness potential, and could differentiate into acinar mammospheres in 3D culture.
