We used conditional transgenic mice induced to overexpress GLI1 in the mammary epithelium either alone or in combination with deletion of one Trp53 allele to address the role of elevated GLI1 expression in breast tumour initiation and progression.
In breast tumors, PD-L1 expression levels are the highest in estrogen receptor-negative, progesterone receptor-negative, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (triple-negative) cancers.
Compared with non-carriers, PALB2 pathogenic mutation carriers developed breast cancer at a younger age (47.52 years vs. 51.35 years, p = 0.016) and were more likely to have triple-negative (24.1% vs. 13.4%, p = 0.022) or HER2 negative (87.0% vs. 74.2%, p = 0.031) breast cancer and large breast tumors (> 2 cm) at diagnosis (72.2% vs. 57.0%, p = 0.024).
Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved in February 2019, SQ trastuzumab, a monoclonal antibody that binds to human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) protein in combination with hyaluronidase, offers an alternative dosage form for patients with breast tumors overexpressing HER2.
Compared with non-carriers, PALB2 pathogenic mutation carriers developed breast cancer at a younger age (47.52 years vs. 51.35 years, p = 0.016) and were more likely to have triple-negative (24.1% vs. 13.4%, p = 0.022) or HER2 negative (87.0% vs. 74.2%, p = 0.031) breast cancer and large breast tumors (> 2 cm) at diagnosis (72.2% vs. 57.0%, p = 0.024).
Advanced-stage breast tumors have a high concentration of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα) throughout the tumor/stroma milieu, prompting sustained release of diverse chemokines (i.e.
Ablating T cell Stat3 or treatment with an FAO inhibitor in obese mice spontaneously developing breast tumor reduces FAO, increases glycolysis and CD8<sup>+</sup> T effector cell functions, leading to inhibition of breast tumor development.
CD44-Targeted Multifunctional Nanomedicines Based on a Single-Component Hyaluronic Acid Conjugate with All-Natural Precursors: Construction and Treatment of Metastatic Breast Tumors <i>in Vivo</i>.
HMGA1 IRS was generated from breast tumors in Korean women as the product of staining intensity (weak = 1, moderate = 2, strong = 3) and percent positive cells (< 5% = 0, 5-30% = 1, 30-60% = 2, > 60% = 3), and stratified into three groups: low (< 3), intermediate (3-6), high (> 6).
We screened CEA, CCBN1, c-Myc, p53, Ki-67, Nm23, PRDX6, eIF5A, PARK7, GLIO-1, Hsp27 and Hsp70 proteins, previously detected as up-regulated in breast tumors of Mexican patients.
Since the thyroid hormone receptor β (TRβ) appears to suppress breast tumor growth and metastasis, we have analyzed the possibility that TRβ could affect the CSC population using MCF-7 cells grown under adherent conditions or as mammospheres, as well as inoculation into immunodeficient mice.
