Furthermore, liver LXR/RXR signaling pathway was altered between LA and TNBC in AA women and may be due to the deficiency of the CYP7B1 enzyme responsible for cholesterol degradation.
DDX5 protein level was higher in triple-negative basal-like tumors than in non-basal-like tumors, including luminal A, luminal B, and HER2-enriched subtypes.
Logistic models including TGFB1 variants showed that in luminal-A tumors, G-875A retained its significance while TGFB1 haplotype showed a trend towards significance; otherwise, in HER2<sup>+</sup> tumors TGFB1 variants remained significant while TGFBR2 showed a trend for association.
Proteomics data unveiled novel potential mediators of FoxO3a anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic activity, while the Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that FoxO3a is predictive of a positive response to tamoxifen therapy in Luminal A breast cancer patients.
Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that elevated LINC00899 expression is closely associated with better relapse-free survival (RFS) in breast cancer, including the basal, luminal A or luminal B breast cancer subtypes.
Analysis of Kaplan-Meier plotter (KM plotter) showed that high RAD54B transcription activity was critically linked with poor prognosis of BC patients, in particular those with the luminal A subtype.
This study demonstrates a novel role of RHAMM in cell migration in luminal A breast cancer and suggests that therapeutic strategies involving RHAMM should be considered for various subtypes of breast cancer.
microRNA-21 was up-regulated in HER2 positive and Basal-like breast cancer types, while microRNA-206 was up-regulated in Luminal A and B types of breast cancer. microRNA-21 expression negatively correlated with the level of ER and PR but positively correlated with HER2 expression and tumor malignancy, while microRNA-206 showed the opposite trend.
Furthermore, some pivotal fusion genes like ESR1-C6orf97 with COBRA1-C9orf167 and VAPB-IKZF3 with ACACA-STAC2 were found in Luminal A and Luminal B breast cancer, respectively.
The subsequent analysis of the Kaplan-Meier plotter cohort also demonstrated that CCL28 was a favorable prognostic factor for luminal-like cases [luminal A (P<0.001) and luminal B (P=0.031)], but a poor prognostic indicator for the patients with triple-negative phenotype (P<0.001).
Functional Variant rs4442975 Modulating FOXA1 Binding Affinity Can Influence Bone Marrow Suppression during Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Luminal A Type Breast Cancer.
Furthermore, some pivotal fusion genes like ESR1-C6orf97 with COBRA1-C9orf167 and VAPB-IKZF3 with ACACA-STAC2 were found in Luminal A and Luminal B breast cancer, respectively.
High expression of IL19, CA9 and SPARC identified in MCF-7/BPA, SK-BR3/BPA, and MDA-MB-231/BPA are detrimental gene signatures to predict poor overall survival in luminal A, HER2-enriched and triple-negative breast cancer patients, respectively.
Based on the immunohistochemical detection of CDCA8, BCL2 and STC2, we identified a luminal A-like subgroup of TPBCs in the FUSCC cohort (CDCA8-negative, BCL2- and/or STC2-positive).
High expression of IL19, CA9 and SPARC identified in MCF-7/BPA, SK-BR3/BPA, and MDA-MB-231/BPA are detrimental gene signatures to predict poor overall survival in luminal A, HER2-enriched and triple-negative breast cancer patients, respectively.
Particularly, a more aggressive subset of luminal A (LA) tumors as evidenced by higher MKI67 gene expression and worse patient survival outcomes, were reclassified as luminal B (LB) increasing the LB subtype consistency with IHC by 25-49%.
Furthermore, some pivotal fusion genes like ESR1-C6orf97 with COBRA1-C9orf167 and VAPB-IKZF3 with ACACA-STAC2 were found in Luminal A and Luminal B breast cancer, respectively.
ROC curve and AUC analysis of the data found that the combination of three miRNAs (miR-145, miR-195 and miR-486) had the best diagnostic value for luminal A breast cancer with an AUC of 0.875, with 76% sensitivity and 81% specificity.
Furthermore, some pivotal fusion genes like ESR1-C6orf97 with COBRA1-C9orf167 and VAPB-IKZF3 with ACACA-STAC2 were found in Luminal A and Luminal B breast cancer, respectively.
PLCγ1 overexpression is a strong predictive surrogate marker of development of metastases in early Luminal-A and -B breast cancer patients, being able to discriminate patients with high and low risk of metastases.
