Boronic acid-containing curcumin analog, pentagamaboronon-0 (PGB-0), acts as a potential boron-carrier agent but has limited water solubility. Thus, a new compound (PGB-0-ol) with better chemical and pharmacological properties than PGB-0 has been synthesized. Molecular docking was performed using a molecular operating environment. Prediction of PGB-0-ol absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) was performed using pkCSM software. PGB-0-ol was synthesized by adding NaBH to PGB-0 and stirring for 1 h. The crude PGB-0-ol was purified using preparative layer chromatography. Cell viability was evaluated using the trypan blue exclusion assay. In comparison to PGB-0 based on molecular docking study, PGB-0-ol could interact in with several cancer biomarkers, such as human epidermal growth factor2 epidermal growth factor receptor, IκB kinase, folate receptor-α, and integrin αβ. PGB-0-ol also showed an improved ADME profile because of its higher water solubility than PGB-0. PGB-0-ol was synthesized by selective ketone reduction of PGB-0 into primary alcohol by sodium borohydrate producing 30% yield. The cytotoxicity of PGB-0-ol against several breast cancer cells was lower than that of PGB-0. The novel compound PGB-0-ol was synthesized using simple steps. PGB-0-ol has low cytotoxicity against breast cancer cells and could be applied in boron neutron capture therapy as a boron carrier.

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).
Prognosis of Implant-Based Breast Reconstruction After Mastectomy Flap Necrosis: Predictors of Failure and Salvage.

Department of Plastic Surgery, Samsung Medical Center, Sungkyunkwan University School of Medicine, 81 Irwon-ro, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, 06351, Republic of Korea.
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.
