    Resf1 Is a Compound G4 Quadruplex-Associated Tumor Suppressor for Triple Negative Breast Cancer

    Researchers identified Resf1 as a novel metastasis susceptibility gene in ER- breast cancer. Reduction of Resf1 resulted in a significant increase in tumor growth, a shortened overall survival time, and increased incidence and number of lung metastases, consistent with patient data.

    Abstract

    Phosphoglycerate Mutase 1 Promotes Breast Cancer Progression through Inducing Immunosuppressive M2 Macrophages

    Scientists reported that phosphoglycerate mutase 1 suppression in breast cancer cells led to a decrease in M2 polarization, migration, and interleukin-10 production of macrophages.

    Abstract

    Stem Cells Derived Exosomes as Biological Nano Carriers for VCR Sulfate for Treating Breast Cancer Stem Cells

    Scientists loaded vincristine sulfate (VCR) on exosomes generated from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to enhance its targeted distribution, and reported that loading VCR sulfate to MSCs-derived exosomes could improve their targeted delivery and lessen their side effects.
