متن کاملTherapy targeted to the metastatic niche is effective in a model of stage IV breast cancer
Treatment of stage IV metastatic breast cancer patients is limited to palliative options and represents an unmet clinical need. Here, we demonstrate that pharmacological inhibition of miRNA-10b - a master regulator of metastatic cell viability - leads to elimination of distant metastases in a mouse model of metastatic breast cancer. This was achieved using the miRNA-10b inhibitory nanodrug, MN-...
متن کاملGlucose-dependent acetylation of Rictor promotes targeted cancer therapy resistance.
Cancer cells adapt their signaling in response to nutrient availability. To uncover the mechanisms regulating this process and its functional consequences, we interrogated cell lines, mouse tumor models, and clinical samples of glioblastoma (GBM), the highly lethal brain cancer. We discovered that glucose or acetate is required for epidermal growth factor receptor vIII (EGFRvIII), the most comm...
متن کاملTargeted Therapy in Breast Cancer.
Currently targeted drug selection in breast cancer is exclusively based on estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PgR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER2) expression mainly of the primary tumor, even if metastatic disease is actually treated. Retrospective data indicate discordance regarding those factors between primary tumors and corresponding metastatic lesions in up to...
