Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. Novel mechanisms and targets are urgently needed to understand and treat this disease due to the complexity of breast cancer. In this study, we evaluated the expression level of tripartite motif-containing (TRIM) 35 in various breast cancer cell lines by qPCR and immunoblot.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the role and molecular mechanism of C‑C motif chemokine ligand 11 (CCL11) in the regulation of Treg cells from patients with breast cancer (BC) and healthy individuals in vitro, and from tumor‑bearing mice in vivo. CD4+ T cells isolated from patients with BC or healthy individuals were incubated with anti‑CCL11 neutralizing antibodies or recombinant human CCL11 protein, in the presence or absence of a STAT5 inhibitor.
