Radionuclide-stimulated dynamic therapy induces complementary immunogenic necroptosis and apoptosis cancer cell death pathways. (PubMed, Commun Biol)
Although cancer cells in CR mice enhanced protumor cytokines and immune checkpoints over time, RaST maintained cancer control through dynamic redistribution of ROS-regenerative titanium dioxide nanoparticles from bones to spleen and lymph nodes, supporting sustained immunity. This study highlights how RaST reprograms tumor immunity, overcoming apoptosis resistance by activating complementary necroptosis.

Site-saturation functional screens identify PALB2 missense variants associated with increased breast cancer risk. (PubMed, Nat Commun)
A burden-type analysis shows that damaging missense variants in PALB2 are associated with a significantly increased risk of breast cancer, similar to that observed for truncating variants. These results will be valuable for the classification of PALB2 missense VUS and clinical management of carriers.

Reversing the Hypoxic Adaptive Response in Breast Cancer Cells through Small-Molecule Inhibition of Oncogenic MicroRNA-210. (PubMed, J Med Chem)
These findings demonstrate the potential of the tris-thiazole scaffold as a chemical probe and an RNA binder while highlighting the therapeutic relevance of miR-210 inhibition in hypoxia-driven cancers. Indeed, the inhibition of miR-210 biogenesis by small molecules reverses the hypoxia-induced adaptive phenotype in cancer cells.

Src-dependent modulation of IFNγ-induced PD-L1 expression in human breast cancer cell lines. (PubMed, J Pharmacol Sci)
These findings indicate that Src plays a crucial role in IFNγ-mediated PD-L1 expression and immune evasion in TNBC cell lines. Src inhibition may represent a promising combinatorial strategy to enhance antitumor immunity in TNBC cell lines.

Development and application of SPE-UHPLC-MS/MS methods for quantification of 29 steroids in rat serum. (PubMed, J Chromatogr B Analyt Technol Biomed Life Sci)
The method exhibited acceptable extraction recovery, matrix effects, and stability, confirming compliance with regulatory standards. The validated method was successfully applied to characterize serum steroid metabolic profiles in both N-methyl-N-nitrosourea-induced breast cancer and ovariectomized rat models, revealing alterations in estrogen 2-hydroxylation and pregnenolone 21-hydroxylation pathways mediated by key steroidogenic enzymes, including CYP1A1/CYP1B1 and potentially CYP21A2-independent mechanisms, providing robust support for preclinical research on steroid-related diseases.

Oncogenic Alterations in PI3K Signaling Emulated Optogenetically Recapitulate Some Phenotypic Changes in Mammary Epithelia. (PubMed, ACS Synth Biol)
Using this tool to mimic the mutation-specific dynamics in MCF10A mammary epithelial cells, we found that PI3K signaling patterns alone were sufficient to reproduce key features of the PIK3CA H1047R-associated EMT phenotype but not the ErbB2-associated proliferative phenotype. These findings suggest that the temporal encoding of pathway activity, not merely its magnitude, can drive some phenotypic changes in oncogenic progression, explain how distinct mutations within a common signaling pathway can produce divergent cellular phenotypes, and provide a workflow for interrogating the functional consequences of changes in signaling dynamics.

Comparison of postprocessing metrics in multimetabolic APT-weighted CEST and 2-deoxy-D-glucose-CEST-MRI for differentiating breast cancer subtypes in a murine model. (PubMed, Eur Radiol Exp)
Advanced multimetabolic APTw-CEST and 2-deoxy-D-glucose-CEST postprocessing metrics allowed adequate preclinical murine BC subtyping. AREX showed potential for 2-deoxy-D-glucose-CEST in tumor characterization; however, APTw-CEST remains superior. MTRasym failed to distinguish between tumor subtypes in CEST-MRI.

ZNF384-regulated SLC31A1 expression promotes tumor proliferation and invasion in breast cancer. (PubMed, Mol Cell Biochem)
SLC31A1 plays a crucial role in the proliferation and invasion of breast cancer cells, and its expression is regulated by ZNF384. These findings highlight SLC31A1 as a potential therapeutic target and suggest that modulation of copper metabolism may offer novel strategies for breast cancer treatment.
