The identification of efficient and sensitive biomarkers for non-invasive tests is one of the major challenges in cancer diagnosis. To address this challenge, metabolomics is widely applied for identifying biomarkers that detect abnormal changes in cancer patients. Canine mammary tumors exhibit physiological characteristics identical to those in human breast cancer and serve as a useful animal model to conduct breast cancer research. Here, we aimed to provide a reliable large-scale metabolite dataset collected from dogs with mammary tumors, using proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. We identified 55 metabolites in urine samples from 20 benign, 87 malignant, and 49 healthy control subjects. This dataset provides details of mammary tumor-specific metabolites in dogs and insights into cancer-specific metabolic alterations that share similar molecular characteristics.

In 2022, human breast cancer (HBC) and canine mammary tumors (CMTs) remained the most prevalent malignant tumors worldwide, with high recurrence and lethality rates, posing a significant threat to human and dog health. The development of breast cancer involves multiple signaling pathways, highlighting the need for effective inhibitory drugs that target key proteins in these pathways. This article reviews the dysregulation of the EGFR, PI3K/AKT/mTOR, Hippo, pyroptosis, and PD-1/PD-L1 signaling pathways in HBC and CMT, as well as the corresponding drugs used to inhibit tumor growth, with the aim of providing theoretical support for the development of more efficient drugs.

CD4+ T cells contribute to antitumor immunity and are implicated in the efficacy of cancer immunotherapies. In particular, CD4+ T helper 2 (Th2) cells were recently found to block spontaneous breast carcinogenesis. However, the antitumor potential of Th2 cells in targeting established breast cancer remains uncertain.

Cancer pain is one of the most common symptoms in patients with advanced cancer. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of the -related gene C (MrgC) receptors on bone cancer pain. Mechanical withdrawal threshold (MWT) and thermal withdrawal latency (TWL) were measured after the inoculation of Walker 256 mammary gland carcinoma cells into the tibia of adult Sprague-Dawley rats.

Background: Benign and malignant breast tumors differ in their microvasculature morphology and distribution. Histologic biomarkers of malignant breast tumors are also correlated with the microvasculature. There is a lack of imaging technology for evaluating the microvasculature.

Problem: Breast cancer is a leading cause of death among women, and early detection is crucial for improving survival rates. The manual breast cancer diagnosis utilizes more time and is subjective. Also, the previous CAD models mostly depend on manmade visual details that are complex to generalize across ultrasound images utilizing distinct techniques.
