Objective: To study the expression of paxillin in the two subgroups of human breast cancer cells with high and low metastatic potentialities and the effect of paxillin on tumor metastasis and adhesion.
Methods: Human breast cancer MDA-MB-435s cells were cultured in Transwell chamber with artificial matrigel, two subgroups of MDA-MB-435s cells with different metastatic potentiality were obtained by the ability of cells penetrating artificial matrigel. The expressions of paxillin mRNA and protein were examined by Immune histochemistry, Western blot and RT-PCR. The adhesion rates of the cells were examined by MTT.
Results: It was revealed by Immune histochemistry, Western blot, and RT-PCR that the expressions of paxillin at mRNA and protein levels were significantly higher in the cells with high metastatic potentiality. The difference was significant (t = 25.02,10.10, 17.18, P < 0.01). The adhesion rate was higher in the cells with high metastatic potentiality, and the difference was significant (F = 41.87, P < 0.01).
Conclusion: The expression of paxillin may play an important role in human breast cancer metastasis and adhesion.

Background: The heterogeneity of breast cancer (BC) necessitates the identification of novel subtypes and prognostic models to enhance patient stratification and treatment strategies. This study aims to identify novel BC subtypes based on PANoptosis-related genes (PRGs) and construct a robust prognostic model to guide individualized treatment strategies.
Methods: The transcriptome data along with clinical data of BC patients were sourced from the TCGA and GEO databases.

Breast cancer remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related mortality among women worldwide. Immunotherapy, a promising therapeutic approach, often faces challenges due to the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. This study explores the innovative use of CRISPR-Cas9 technology in conjunction with FCPCV nanoparticles to target and edit the C-C Motif Chemokine Ligand 5 (CCL5) gene, aiming to improve the efficacy of breast cancer immunotherapy.

Purpose: Aromatase inhibitor-associated musculoskeletal symptoms (AIMSS) are the most common adverse effects experienced by breast cancer patients. This scoping review aimed to systematically synthesize the predictors/risk factors and outcomes of AIMSS in patients with early-stage breast cancer.
Methods: A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, CINAHL, and the China National Knowledge Internet (CNKI) from inception to December 2024 following the scoping review framework proposed by Arksey and O'Malley (2005).

Background: In the realm of implant-based breast reconstruction, mastectomy flap necrosis (MFN) is a prevalent yet grave complication that poses a threat to the stability of the inserted prosthesis. Although numerous investigations have scrutinized the risk factors for MFN development, few have delved into the aftermath, specifically implant failure or salvage. This study seeks to appraise the prognosis of the implanted prosthesis following MFN occurrence, as well as identify predictors of such outcomes.
