| An abundance of CD16+ fibroblasts in HER2+ breast cancer patients was associated with poor prognosis and response to trastuzumab. Functionally, upon trastuzumab stimulation, CD16+ fibroblasts reduced drug delivery by enhancing extracellular matrix stiffness. [Cancer Cell] |

|
| Scientists incorporated cell hierarchy to study functional diversity at subpopulation, club, and cell layers. Accordingly, they implemented a package, SEAT, to construct cell hierarchies utilizing structure entropy by minimizing the global uncertainty in cell–cell graphs. [Nucleic Acids Research] |

|
| The obtained aptamer, named apMNKQ2, was able to inhibit proliferation, colony formation, migration and invasion in breast cancer cells. [Molecular Therapy Nucleic Acids] |

|
|
| Two oncolytic Urabe mumps virus clinical trial virus stock (MuV-U-Japan) isolates, MuV-UA and MuV-UC, potently killed a panel of established human breast cancer cell lines in vitro, and significantly extended survival of nude mice with human TNBC MDA-MB-231 tumor xenografts in vivo. |
|
|
|
| Investigators tested the pro-oncogenic role of heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein U (HNRNPU), which could induce the proliferation and migration of TNBC cells via its association with DEAD box helicase 5 protein. [Cell Death & Disease] |
|
|
|
| Scientists tracked the temporal variations in natural killer—triple-negative breast cancer cell distances and compared them with terminal cellular transcriptome profiles. [Communications Biology] |

|
| DEAR1 loss in human mammary epithelial cells resulted in significantly enhanced mammosphere formation that was accelerated in the presence of TGF-β/SMAD3 signaling. [Scientific Reports] |
|
|
|
| To confirm Aromatase Interacting Partner in Breast (AIPB)’s regulatory role, investigators developed a conditional expression of AIPB by stably selecting with puromycin from MCF-7 cells and thus regulating AIPB expression under a tetracycline promoter. [Journal of Endocrine Society] |
|
|
|
| Scientists showed that either prior PDIA3-inhibition by the disulphide isomerase inhibitor 16F16 or depletion of heparin-binding proteins strongly reduced the activity of conditioned medium of MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells to support pro-migratory cell spreading by newly adherent MDA-MB-231 cells.

|
| Researchers investigated the intricate involvement of serine/threonine kinase in breast cancer cells and their disruption by phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC). [Heliyon] |

|
|
| The authors highlight current data and ongoing efforts to establish the safety and efficacy of immunotherapeutic approaches beyond checkpoint inhibitors in TNBC. [npj Breast Cancer] |

|
| Biocept, Inc. announced a collaboration agreement to participate in an investigator-initiated, non-therapeutic pilot study to evaluate the cerebrospinal fluid tumor and immune cell microenvironment in patients with metastatic breast cancer and brain metastases and/or leptomeningeal disease.
