Growth and Metastasis of Murine Mammary Carcinomas
AvB3 or AvB5 integrins are widely expressed on blood and endothelial cells. Inhibition of the functions of these integrins has been reported to suppress neovascularization and tumor growth, suggesting that they may be critical modulators of angiogenesis. However, mice lacking these integrins exhibit extensive angiogenesis. Tumors arising from s.c. injections of tumor cells into mice lacking one...
متن کاملEffects of BRCA1 Transgene Expression on Murine Mammary Gland Development and Mutagen-Induced Mammary Neoplasia
To characterize the role of BRCA1 in mammary gland development and tumor suppression, a transgenic mouse model of BRCA1 overexpression was developed. Using the mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) promoter/enhancer, transgenic mice expressing human BRCA1 or select mutant controls were generated. Transgenic animals examined during adolescence were shown to express the human transgene in their mammar...
متن کاملNasopharyngeal carcinoma metastasis to the mammary gland: A case report
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is the second most common type of malignancy in Southern China. Metastatic sites are usually multifocal and involve the bones, lungs and distant lymph nodes. To date, there have been no studies with regard to nasopharyngeal carcinoma metastasis to the mammary gland. In the current study, the case of a 56-year-old female with nasal obstruction, epitaxis and a bilateral n...
متن کاملAluminium chloride promotes tumorigenesis and metastasis in normal murine mammary gland epithelial cells
Aluminium salts, present in many industrial products of frequent use like antiperspirants, anti-acid drugs, food additives and vaccines, have been incriminated in contributing to the rise in breast cancer incidence in Western societies. However, current experimental evidence supporting this hypothesis is limited. For example, no experimental evidence that aluminium promotes tumorigenesis in cul...
متن کاملLOXL2-mediated matrix remodeling in metastasis and mammary gland involution.
More than 90% of cancer patient mortality is attributed to metastasis. In this study, we investigated a role for the lysyl oxidase-related enzyme lysyl oxidase-like 2 (LOXL2) in breast cancer metastasis, in both patient samples and in vivo models. Analysis of a published microarray data set revealed that LOXL2 expression is correlated with metastasis and decreased survival in patients with aggr...
