AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are abundantly present in the microenvironment of virtually all tumors and strongly impact tumor progression. Despite increasing insight into their function and heterogeneity, little is known regarding the origin of CAFs. Understanding the origin of CAF heterogeneity is needed to develop successful CAF-based targeted therapies. Through various transplantation studies in mice, we show that CAFs in both invasive lobular breast cancer and triple-negative breast cancer originate from mammary tissue-resident normal fibroblasts (NFs). Single-cell transcriptomics, in vivo and in vitro studies reveal the transition of CD26+ and CD26- NF populations into inflammatory CAFs (iCAFs) and myofibroblastic CAFs (myCAFs), respectively. Functional co-culture experiments show that CD26+ NFs transition into pro-tumorigenic iCAFs which recruit myeloid cells in a CXCL12-dependent manner and enhance tumor cell invasion via matrix-metalloproteinase (MMP) activity. Together, our data suggest that CD26+ and CD26- NFs transform into distinct CAF subpopulations in mouse models of breast cancer.

Five-year results of a prospective trial of IORT-photon boost and hypofractionated whole-breast irradiation after breast-conserving surgery.
Clin Transl Oncol
December 2024
Centro Oncológico Integral Canario, Hospital Universitario San Roque, Las Palmas, Spain.
Aim: To assess for the first time the safety and feasibility of combining photon-IntraOperative RadioTherapy (ph-IORT) with hypofractionated whole-breast irradiation (hWBI) in patients referred to adjuvant radiotherapy after Breast-Conserving Surgery (BCS).
Methods: From February 2019 to August 2020, patients referred for breast-conserving surgery (BCS) in our institution were prospectively included in the present trial. BCS was discussed in the multidisciplinary tumor board (MTB).
Benefit of the Omental Flap in Breast Reconstruction for Oncoplastic Treatment: A Systematic Review and Single-Arm Meta-Analysis.

Department of Plastic Surgery, China-Japan Union Hospital of Jilin University, Changchun City, 130033, Jilin Province, China.
Background: Oncoplastic surgery for breast cancer patients poses the challenge of achieving optimal aesthetic outcomes without increasing the risk of complications. Omental flap has emerged as n reconstructive option in breast surgery, yet the efficacy and safety of large omental flaps remain uncertain. This study aims to conduct a systematic review and single-arm meta-analysis to comprehensively evaluate the effectiveness, safety, and cosmetic outcomes of large omental flap breast reconstruction, providing updated evidence for clinical practice.

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have emerged as promising candidates for cancer therapy due to their unique physicochemical properties and biocompatibility. In this study, we investigate the synthesis, characterization, and therapeutic potential of AuNPs in breast cancer treatment. Further, it establishes a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms by which AuNPs suppress angiogenesis and breast cancer growth, identifying novel targets and signaling nodes contributing to the anti-tumor effects of AuNPs.

J Cancer Res Clin Oncol
December 2024
Institute of Sports Medicine & Prevention, University Leipzig, Leipzig, Germany.
Purpose: The reduced cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and functional capacity following surgical procedures and during cancer treatments is a major risk factor for morbidity and mortality among patients with cancer. We aimed to assess the impact of endurance and combined resistance exercise interventions during the postoperative rehabilitation period for patients with colorectal, breast, and prostate cancer.
Methods: A systematic search was conducted in MEDLINE Pubmed, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library until October 2023 for randomized controlled trials that assessed exercise interventions (aerobic/endurance; resistance or combined training) on postoperative patients with cancer.

Exonuclease 1 (EXO1) is an evolutionarily conserved exonuclease, which have function on maintaining genomic stability. Elevated expression of EXO1 has been reported in certain cancers. However, a comprehensive pan-cancer analysis of EXO1 is still lacking and its role in human cancer development remains poorly understood.
