    Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase 1 Controls a Lipid Droplet–Peroxisome Axis and Is a Vulnerability of Endocrine-Resistant ER+ Breast Cancer

    Functional metabolic analysis revealed that lipid droplets together with peroxisomes, which researchers showed to be enriched and active in the long-term estrogen-deprived cells, controlled redox homeostasis and conferred metabolic adaptability to the resistant tumors.

    Palazestrant (OP-1250), a Complete Estrogen Receptor Antagonist, Inhibits Wild-Type and Mutant ER-Positive Breast Cancer Models as Monotherapy and in Combination

    The authors described palazestrant, a novel, orally bioavailable complete estrogen receptor (ER) antagonist and selective ER degrader. Palazestrant, like fulvestrant, had no agonist activity on the ER and completely blocked estrogen-induced transcriptional activity.

    Characterization of KIF20B as a Novel Prognostic Biomarker and Therapeutic Target for Breast Cancer

    Using reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR and western blotting, investigators discovered that kinesin family member 20B (KIF20B) mRNA and protein expression levels were upregulated in most breast cancer cell lines but were scarcely expressed in normal mammary epithelial cells.
