Targeted next-generation sequencing assays using triplet samples of normal breast tissue, primary breast cancer, and recurrent/metastatic lesions

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2020
Background Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has shown that recurrent/metastatic breast cancer lesions may have additional genetic changes compared with the primary tumor. These additional changes may be related to tumor progression and/or drug resistance.

Role of KCNMA1 gene in breast cancer invasion and metastasis to brain

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2009
Background The prognosis for patients with breast tumor metastases to brain is extremely poor. Identification of prognostic molecular markers of the metastatic process is critical for designing therapeutic modalities for reducing the occurrence of ...

Clinical relevance of soluble c-erbB-2 for patients with metastatic breast cancer predicting the response to second-line hormone or chemotherapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Concentrations of soluble c-erbB-2 were determined in the sera of 64 patients with distant metastasis from advanced breast cancer receiving second-line hormone or chemotherapy in comparison to 35 breast cancer patients without detectable recurrent ...

Sclerostin inhibition alleviates breast cancer-induced bone metastases and muscle weakness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Breast cancer bone metastases often cause a debilitating non-curable condition with osteolytic lesions, muscle weakness and a high mortality. Current treatment comprises chemotherapy, irradiation, surgery and anti-resorptive drugs that restrict but do ...

Conquering Metastatic Breast Cancer [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Oncology Practice, 2016
The plight of women (and men) with metastatic breast cancer and our wish to improve on our current inability to effect long-term cures for these patients are in our thoughts. Metastatic breast cancer is the top cancer killer for US women younger than 54 years of age, and some 40,000 individuals succumb each year in the United States, accounting for ...

Sialic Acid Metabolism: A Key Player in Breast Cancer Metastasis Revealed by Metabolomics

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2018
Metastatic breast cancer is currently incurable. It has recently emerged that different metabolic pathways support metastatic breast cancer. To further uncover metabolic pathways enabling breast cancer metastasis, we investigated metabolic differences in

CCL2 recruits inflammatory monocytes to facilitate breast-tumour metastasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Macrophages abundantly found in the tumor microenvironment enhance malignancy(1). At metastatic sites a distinct population of metastasis associated macrophages (MAMs) promote tumor cell extravasation, seeding and persistent growth(2).

Stratification and therapeutic potential of PML in metastatic breast cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Patient stratification has been instrumental for the success of targeted therapies in breast cancer. However, the molecular basis of metastatic breast cancer and its therapeutic vulnerabilities remain poorly understood.
