The clinical efficacy of therapies targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway is still limited. In this issue of Cancer Cell, Li and colleagues identify a PD-L1 glycosylation-based mechanism in triple-negative breast cancer that ...

Gene/s sequencing in hereditary breast/ovary cancer (HBOC) in routine diagnosis is challenged by the analysis of panels. We aim to report a retrospective analysis of BRCA1/2 and non-BRCA gene sequencing in patients with ...

Dissemination of cancer cells from the primary tumors to distant organs represents the main cause of death in cancer patients. GTSE1 over-expression has been reported as a potential marker for metastasis in various types ...

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is associated with poor prognosis, high local recurrence rate and high rate of metastasis compared with other breast cancer subtypes. In addition, TNBC lacks a targeted therapy. This ...

Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) treatment is still challenging, and immunotherapy is a potential approach in this tumor subtype. Cetuximab is an IgG1 monoclonal antibody (mAb) directed against Epidermic Growth Factor ...

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is clinically defined by the absence of estrogen and progesterone receptors and the lack of membrane overexpression or gene amplification of receptor tyrosine kinase ErbB-2/HER2. Due ...

Polo-Like Kinases (PLKs) are central players of mitotic progression in Eukaryotes. Given the intimate relationship between cell cycle progression and cancer development, PLKs in general and PLK1 in particular have been ...

Humanin (HN) is a mitochondrial-derived peptide with cytoprotective effect in many tissues. Administration of HN analogs has been proposed as therapeutic approach for degenerative diseases. Although HN has been shown to ...

Background: The mechanisms by which stress hormones impact triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) etiology and treatment are unclear. We have previously shown that stress hormones, cortisol, and catecholamines induce rapid ...
