MicroRNA whose expression depends on the receptor status of breast cancer were selected using bioinformatic analysis. The expression of 9 microRNAs (16, 17, 21, 27, 125, 146, 155, 200a, and 221) was analyzed in 76 samples of breast cancer with various receptor phenotypes. The expression of microRNAs 155, 27, and 200a did not differ in various types of breast cancer. The data on positive correlation between the expression of microRNA-21 and microRNA-221 and negative receptor status of the tumor were confirmed. The expression of the tumor suppressing microRNA-125b decreased in samples of breast cancer expressing HER2 and ER and in triple negative breast cancer, which characterizes it as a universal marker of breast cancer. An increase in the expression of microRNA-16 was shown in samples of breast cancer expressing HER2 and ER. The expression of microRNA-17 decreased in triple negative breast cancer and increased in ER, PR, and HER types of breast cancer. MicroRNAs 16, 17, 21, 125b, 146b, and 221 can be promising markers for differential diagnostics of various phenotypes of breast cancer.

Background: Patients with unilateral breast loss after single mastectomy for breast cancer may have body image disorders such as surgical lymphedema, flap ischemia, and spinal deformity, resulting in negative emotions such as depression, inferiority, and social dysfunction. This study mainly investigated and analyzed the status quo and influencing factors of body image disorder in breast cancer patients after single mastectomy.
Methods: This study is a cross-sectional study.

Breast cancer is a significant cause of death from cancer in women globally, highlighting the need for improved diagnostic imaging to enhance patient outcomes. Accurate tumor identification is essential for diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring, emphasizing the importance of advanced imaging technologies that provide detailed views of tumor characteristics and disease. Recently, a new imaging modality named synthetic correlated diffusion imaging (CDI) has been showing promise for enhanced prostate cancer delineation when compared to existing MRI imaging modalities.

: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most challenging molecular subtype of breast cancer (BC) in clinical practice, associated with a worse prognosis due to limited treatment strategies and its insensitivity to conventional drugs. Zinc is an important trace element for homeostasis, and its Schiff base metal complexes have shown promise in treating advanced tumors. In this study, four new heteroleptic Zn(II) complexes (-) with Schiff bases were synthesized, characterized, and evaluated for their activity in BC cells.

New tributyltin(IV) complexes containing the carboxylate ligands 3-(4-methyl-2-oxoquinolin-1(2H)-yl)propanoic acid () and 2-(4-methyl-2-oxoquinolin-1(2H)-yl)acetic acid () have been synthesized. Their structures have been determined by elemental microanalysis, FT-IR and multinuclear NMR (H, C and Sn) spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction study. A solution state NMR analysis reveals a four-coordinated tributyltin(IV) complex in non-polar solvents, while an X-Ray crystallographic analysis confirms a five-coordinated trigonal-bipyramidal geometry around the tin atom due to the formation of 1D chains.
