AI Article Synopsis

  • The study identifies hsa-miR-4756-3p as a key microRNA in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), influencing important cancer cell functions like apoptosis and migration.
  • hsa-miR-4756-3p was shown to suppress TGF-β1 signaling and tumor growth in TNBC cell lines, indicating its potential as a therapeutic target.
  • Forkhead box protein M1 (FOXM1) is a target of hsa-miR-4756-3p, and its knockout prevents hsa-miR-4756-3p-induced cancer cell migration and signaling, highlighting the FOXM1-TGFβ1-EMT pathway in cancer progression.

Article Abstract

Both aberrantly expressed mRNAs and micro(mi)RNAs play important roles in cancer cell function, which makes integration analysis difficult. In this study, we first applied master regulator analysisalgorithm and confirmed hsa-miR-4756-3p as a candidate miRNA in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients; hsa-miR-4756-3p could regulate TNBC cell line apoptosis, proliferation, migration, and cell cycle as well as suppress TGF-β1 signalling andtumour growth. In TNBC, forkhead box protein M1 (FOXM1)was found to be an hsa-miR-4756-3p target gene, and FOXM1 knockout completely inhibited hsa-miR-4756-3p-induced cell migration and metastasis, TGF-β1 signalling, and epithelial mesenchymal signal activation, which indicated that hsa-miR-4756-3p functions via the FOXM1-TGFβ1-EMT axis.

BRCA1 deficiency is observed in approximately 25% of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). BRCA1, a key player of homologous recombination (HR) repair, is also involved in stalled DNA replication fork protection and repair. Here, we investigated the sensitivity of BRCA1-deficient TNBC models to the frequently used replication chain terminator gemcitabine, which does not directly induce DNA breaks.

Purpose: Trophoblast cell-surface antigen 2 (Trop2) is overexpressed in various solid tumors and contributes to tumor progression, while its expression remains low in normal tissues. Trop2-targeting antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), sacituzumab govitecan-hziy (Trodelvy), has shown efficacy in targeting this antigen. Leveraging the enhanced specificity of ADCs, we conducted the first immunoPET imaging study of Trop2 expression in gastric cancer (GC) and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) models using Zr-labeled Trodelvy ([Zr]Zr-DFO-Trodelvy).

Purpose: Growing evidence suggests that the tyrosine phosphatase SHP2 is pivotal for tumor progression. Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most lethal subtype of breast cancer, characterized by its high recurrence rate, aggressive metastasis, and resistance to chemotherapy. Understanding the mechanisms of tumorigenesis and the underlying molecular pathways in TNBC could aid in identifying new therapeutic targets.

In this study, we synthesized 12 monofunctional tridentate ONS-donor salicylaldimine ligand ()-based Ru(II) complexes with general formula [(Ru()(-cymene)]·Cl (-), characterized by H NMR, C NMR, UV, FT-IR spectroscopy, HR-ESI mass spectrometry, and single-crystal X-ray analysis showing ligand's orientation around the Ru(II) center. All 12 of these 12 complexes were tested for their anticancer activities in multiple cancer cells. The superior antitumor efficacy of , , and was demonstrated by reduced mitochondrial membrane potential, impaired proliferative capacity, and disrupted redox homeostasis, along with enhanced apoptosis through caspase-3 activation and downregulation of Bcl-2 expression.

Infectious viral pathogens significantly impact wild Leporidae populations, particularly , which was listed as 'Endangered' in 2019. Myxomatosis and rabbit haemorrhagic disease are major contributors to severe epizootics with limited long-lasting immunity. This study expanded beyond these well-documented viruses to include a broader spectrum of viruses in 36 wild rabbit carcasses () collected from the field in 2018, 2019, 2021 and 2024, and 32 wild rabbits hunted in 2017/2018.
