Background: Targeted therapy for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) remains a challenge. N6-methyladenosine (m A) is the most abundant internal mRNA modification in eukaryotes, and it regulates the homeostasis and function of modified RNA transcripts in cancer. However, the role of leucine-rich pentatricopeptide repeat containing protein (LRPPRC) as an m A reader in TNBC remains poorly understood.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFLong non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to drive cancer progression. However, the function of lncRNAs and the underlying mechanism in early-stage breast cancer(BC) have rarely been investigated. Datasets of pre-invasive ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), invasive ductal BC (IDC) and normal breast tissue from TCGA and GEO databases were used to conduct bioinformatics analysis.

However, the role of microRNAs in the therapy is emerging. In this study, we explored whether miR-26a-5p could act as BRCAness and enhance chemotherapy sensitivity in TNBC.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFN-methyladenosine RNA (mA) is the most extensive epigenetic modification in mRNA and influences tumor progression. However, the role of mA regulators and specific mechanisms in breast cancer still need further study. Here, we investigated the significance of the mA reader HNRNPA2B1 and explored its influence on autophagy and drug sensitivity in breast cancer.
