    Engineering Nanoparticle Communication in Living Systems by Stigmergy: An Application to Enhance Antitumor Therapy in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

    Mesoporous silica nanoparticles loaded with the senescence inductor palbociclib, and coated with a heterobifunctional poly(ethylene glycol) that binds covalently to a MUC1-binding aptamer, were designed to specifically deliver the pro-senescent drug palbociclib in MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells.

    Long Noncoding RNA DIO3OS Induces Glycolytic-Dominant Metabolic Reprogramming to Promote Aromatase Inhibitor Resistance in Breast Cancer

    Researchers found that long-term estrogen deprivation induced DIO3OS expression in estrogen receptor-positive breast tumor cells, which further enhanced aerobic glycolysis and promoted estrogen-independent cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo.

    Polymeric Micelles Effectively Reprogram the Tumor Microenvironment to Potentiate Nano-Immunotherapy in Mouse Breast Cancer Models

    Investigators took advantage of the cancer-associated fibroblast (CAF)-reprogramming capabilities of tranilast, developing tranilast-loaded micelles designed to increase CAF-reprogramming while limiting adverse effects.

    CCL18 Signaling from Tumor-Associated Macrophages Activates Fibroblasts to Adopt a Chemoresistance-Inducing Phenotype

    CCL18 secreted by tumor-associated macrophages activated a CD10+GPR77+ cancer-associated fibroblast phenotype in normal breast-resident fibroblasts, enriching cancer stem cells and inducing chemoresistance in breast cancer cells.

    E2F1-Initiated Transcription of PRSS22 Promotes Breast Cancer Metastasis by Cleaving ANXA1 and Activating FPR2/ERK Signaling Pathway

    Dual luciferase assays, bioinformatics analyses, and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays indicated that transcription factor E2F1 directly bound to the PRSS22 promoter region and activated its transcription. Upregulation of PRSS22 promoted invasion and metastasis of breast cancer cells in vitro and in vivo.

    Identification of a Novel Potent CYP4Z1 Inhibitor Attenuating the Stemness of Breast Cancer Cells through Lead Optimization

    In order to develop potent and selective CYP4Z1 inhibitors, a series of novel N-hydroxyphenylformamidines were rationally designed and synthesized from a pan-CYP inhibitor HET0016.

    Carboxyl-Terminal Modulator Protein Facilitates Tumor Metastasis in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

    Overexpression of Carboxyl-terminal modulator protein (CTMP) promoted migration and invasion abilities in BT549 cells, while down-regulating of CTMP expression inhibited these abilities in MDA-MB-231 cells.
