<div>Abstract<p>Acquired platinum resistance is a serious problem in the treatment of ovarian carcinomas. However, the mechanism of the drug resistance has not been elucidated. Here, we show functional significance of restoration of BRCA2 protein by secondary <i>BRCA2</i> mutations in acquired drug resistance of <i>BRCA2 ...

An Update on Early‐Onset Breast Cancer: Incidence, Risk Factors, Genetic Testing, and Treatment
ABSTRACT Early‐onset breast cancer presents in patients typically under the age of 40, while very early‐onset breast cancer is usually viewed as breast cancer occurring before the age of 35. Early‐onset breast cancer demonstrates specific molecular properties and has worse outcomes compared to its late‐onset breast cancer counterpart.

Synaptonemal complex protein SYCP3 impairs mitotic recombination by interfering with BRCA2
The meiosis‐specific synaptonemal complex protein SYCP3 has been reported to be aberrantly expressed in tumours. However, in contrast to its well‐defined function in meiosis, its possible role in mitotic cells is entirely unknown. Here, we show that SYCP3 is expressed in a range of primary tumours and that it impairs chromosomal integrity in mitotic ...

Oxidative Stress in the Tumor Immune Microenvironment: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Perspectives
Oxidative stress is involved in several key processes in cancer, including redox regulation, DNA damage, post‐translational modifications, transcriptional regulation, epigenetic modifications, metabolic reprogramming, cell death, and immune modulation. These mechanisms collectively influence tumor progression, immune evasion, and therapeutic responses,

Two Missense Variants Detected in Breast Cancer Probands Preventing BRCA2-PALB2 Protein Interaction
PALB2 (partner and localizer of BRCA2) was initially identified as a binding partner of BRCA2. It interacts also with BRCA1 forming a complex promoting DNA repair by homologous recombination.

Metastatic model of HPV+ oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma demonstrates heterogeneity in tumor metastasis [PDF]
Human papillomavirus induced (HPV+) cancer incidence is rapidly rising, comprising 60–80% of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas (OPSCCs); while rare, recurrent/metastatic disease accounts for nearly all related deaths.
