Circulating adipokines data associated with insulin secretagogue use in breast cancer patients
نویسندگان
چکیده
Oral drugs stimulating endogenous insulin production (insulin secretagogues) may have detrimental effects on breast cancer outcomes. The data presented shows the relationship between pre-existing insulin secretagogues use, adipokine profiles at the time of breast cancer (BC) diagnosis and subsequent cancer outcomes in women diagnosed with BC and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The Pearson correlation analysis evaluating the relationship between adipokines stratified by T2DM pharmacotherapy and controls is also provided. This information is the extension of the data presented and discussed in "Insulin use, adipokine profiles and breast cancer prognosis" (Wintrob et al., in press) [1].

Insulin secretagogue use and circulating inflammatory C–C chemokine levels in breast cancer patients
Monocytes' infiltration into the tumor tissue and their activation to tumor-associated macrophages is an essential step in tumor development, also playing a critical role in an eventual metastasis. Stimulation of endogenous insulin production by oral insulin secretagogue treatment has the potential to interfere with the production and release of C-C chemokines, a group of potent inflammatory cy...

متن کاملAssociations of adipokines & insulin resistance with sex steroids in patients with breast cancer
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Several studies have suggested an important, but conflicting and controversial role for adipose tissue mass in breast cancer risk. Factors such as insulin-like growth factors, sex steroids, adipokines and obesity-related inflammatory markers have been postulated as potential effectors of the mechanisms by which obesity and associated metabolic disorders influence breast ...
متن کاملThe Insulin-like Growth Factor Axis, Adipokines, Physical Activity, and Obesity in Relation to Breast Cancer Incidence and Recurrence
BACKGROUND Obesity, a risk factor for the development of postmenopausal breast cancer and certain other cancer types, has also been associated with poorer response to cancer therapy and cancer recurrence. The insulin-like growth factor (IGF) axis also influences cancer risk. METHODS In this commentary, we consider the literature on IGF and its binding proteins and the risk of breast cancer, a...
متن کاملStudy of the Expression of miR-4270 in Plasma of Patients with Breast Invasive Ductal Carcinoma
Detection of tumor-specific microRNAs (miRs) in the blood of cancer patients may provide a unique and valuable biomarker for diagnosis and prognosis. The aim of this study was to investigate whether plasma levels of microRNA-4270 could serve as a potential marker for breast invasive ductal carcinoma. A total of 40 breast cancer patients and 28 controls were recruited in this study. Total RNA wa...
