Triple-negative breast cancer molecular subtyping and treatment progress

Li Yin, Jiang-Jie Duan, Xiu-Wu Bian et al. · 9 Jun 2020

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), a specific subtype of breast cancer that does not express estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), or human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2), has clinical features that include high invasiveness, high metastatic potential, proneness to relapse, and poor prognosis. Because TNBC tumors lack ER, PR, and HER2 expression, they are…

Phenotypic and molecular characterization of the claudin-low intrinsic subtype of breast cancer

Aleix Prat, Joel S. Parker, Olga Karginova et al. · 2 Sep 2010

INTRODUCTION: In breast cancer, gene expression analyses have defined five tumor subtypes (luminal A, luminal B, HER2-enriched, basal-like and claudin-low), each of which has unique biologic and prognostic features. Here, we comprehensively characterize the recently identified claudin-low tumor subtype. METHODS: The clinical, pathological and biological features of claudin-low tumors were compared to the other tumor…

Choosing the right cell line for breast cancer research

Deborah L. Holliday, Valerie Speirs · 1 Aug 2011

Breast cancer is a complex and heterogeneous disease. Gene expression profiling has contributed significantly to our understanding of this heterogeneity at a molecular level, refining taxonomy based on simple measures such as histological type, tumour grade, lymph node status and the presence of predictive markers like oestrogen receptor and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2…

Carcinoma-associated fibroblasts stimulate tumor progression of initiated human epithelium

AF Olumi, GD Grossfeld, SW Hayward et al. · 1 Mar 2000

While advances in science and technology have increased options for treating breast cancer, current social trends have changed the way people deal with this disease.Women in the United States are no longer simply passive patients, but rather they are survivors, advocates and activists who are speaking up for themselves and speaking out for issues relevant…

PD 0332991, a selective cyclin D kinase 4/6 inhibitor, preferentially inhibits proliferation of luminal estrogen receptor-positive human breast cancer cell lines in vitro

Richard S. Finn, Judy Dering, Dylan Conklin et al. · 29 Oct 2009

INTRODUCTION: Alterations in cell cycle regulators have been implicated in human malignancies including breast cancer. PD 0332991 is an orally active, highly selective inhibitor of the cyclin D kinases (CDK)4 and CDK6 with ability to block retinoblastoma (Rb) phosphorylation in the low nanomolar range. To identify predictors of response, we determined the in vitro sensitivity…
