Atypical chemokine receptor ACKR2 controls branching morphogenesis in the developing mammary gland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Macrophages are important regulators of branching morphogenesis during development and postnatally in the mammary gland. Regulation of macrophage dynamics during these processes can therefore have a profound impact on development.

Effects of BRCA1 Transgene Expression on Murine Mammary Gland Development and Mutagen-Induced Mammary Neoplasia

open access: yesInternational Journal of Biological Sciences, 2007
To characterize the role of BRCA1 in mammary gland development and tumor suppression, a transgenic mouse model of BRCA1 overexpression was developed. Using the mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) promoter/enhancer, transgenic mice expressing human BRCA1 or ...

Liposomal Nanoconfinement Enables Type I Photodynamic Conversion for Synergistic Cancer Photothermal‐Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Liposomal nanoconfinement converts the hemicyanine photosensitizer RhM from Type‐II to Type‐I photodynamic therapy (PDT) while enhancing photothermal therapy (PTT). The RhM‐R837@Lip nanoassembly efficiently generates superoxide (O2•−) and hydroxyl radicals (•OH) to kill tumor cells and achieve tumor ablation.

Targeting matriptase in breast cancer abrogates tumour progression via impairment of stromal-epithelial growth factor signalling. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Matriptase is an epithelia-specific membrane-anchored serine protease that has received considerable attention in recent years because of its consistent dysregulation in human epithelial tumours, including breast cancer.

Contribution of an alveolar cell of origin to the high-grade malignant phenotype of pregnancy-associated breast cancer. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Pregnancy-associated breast cancers (PABCs) are tumors diagnosed during pregnancy or up to 5 years following parturition, and are usually high-grade, connective tissue-rich, and estrogen receptor (ER)/progesterone receptor-negative. Little is known about

Low-Dose Alkylphenol Exposure Promotes Mammary Epithelium Alterations and Transgenerational Developmental Defects, But Does Not Enhance Tumorigenic Behavior of Breast Cancer Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2017
Fetal and neonatal exposure to long-chain alkylphenols has been suspected to promote breast developmental disorders and consequently to increase breast cancer risk. However, disease predisposition from developmental exposures remains unclear.

Highly Active Cu14 Cluster Precisely Activates Autophagy Inhibitor to Amplify Cuproptosis Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An atomically precise Cu14 cluster‐mediated bond scission reaction pioneers the amplification of the antitumor immune response via synergetic cuproptosis‐associated immunogenic cell death induction and in situ autophagy blockade. ABSTRACT Transition metal‐mediated cleavage mechanisms have emerged as an effective means to mitigate the off‐target ...

Unraveling Heterogeneity in Epithelial Cell Fates of the Mammary Gland and Breast Cancer. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Fluidity in cell fate or heterogeneity in cell identity is an interesting cell biological phenomenon, which at the same time poses a significant obstacle for cancer therapy.

Breast Cancer Stem Cells and Tumor Suppressor Genes

open access: yesJournal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2008
Studies of breast cancer stem cells are in their infancy and many fundamental questions have yet to be fully addressed. The molecular distinction between normal and cancerous breast stem cells is not clear.

Delivery of Pleckstrin‐Homology Domains Suppresses PI3K/Akt Signaling and Breast Cancer Metastasis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Current therapies curb tumor growth but not metastasis. Obscurin, a giant metastasis suppressor lost in breast cancer, restrains PI3K/Akt signaling but is impractical to restore. We deploy a mini‐obscurin, comprising the obscurin‐PH‐domain, which sequesters PI3K‐p85, potently suppressing invasion and metastasis.
