Introduction: Breast cancer is considered the most frequent type of cancer in women with high mortality worldwide, and most importantly, it is the second most common cancer. However, some breast cancer-related risk factors remain unknown. So, the current study was designed to evaluate the effect of on the biomarkers correlated with proliferation, apoptosis, inflammation, and angiogenesis in 4T1 tumor-bearing mice infected with for the first time.
Methods: Mice were categorized into four groups: A) control, B) treated with 4T1+ , C) treated with , and D) treated with 4T1. The expression of Ki-67 and P53 was then evaluated by using the immunohistochemical technique. In addition, the levels of transforming growth factor-β, Interferon gamma-γ, Interleukin 10, tumor necrosis factor-α and vascular endothelial growth factor as well as anti- IgG were determined using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method.
Results: The expression of Ki-67 was significantly increased in the 4T1+ group than control and groups ( < 0.001 and < 0.001, respectively). Moreover, a significant decrease in P53 was found in the 4T1+ group than in the control and groups ( < 0.001 and < 0.001, respectively). Also, the 4T1+ group significantly reduced the expression of P53 more than 4T1 tumor-bearing mice ( = 0.005). In addition, the 4T1+ Toxocara canis group had an increasing tumor necrosis factor-α and vascular endothelial growth factor than controls ( = 0.004 and = 0.002, respectively). Furthermore, a significant reduction in Interleukin 10 was found in the 4T1+ group than in the control group ( = 0.004).
Conclusion: Our findings showed that could probably increase the potential of breast cancer by reducing P53 in 4T1 tumor-bearing mice infected with more than other groups.

Bisphenol A (BPA), a commonly used plastic additive, is believed to cause obesity. As an environmental endocrine disruptor, BPA is closely associated with the onset and progression of BC. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the promotion of breast cancer by BPA remain unclear.

In triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), pro-tumoral macrophages promote metastasis and suppress the immune response. To target these cells, a previously identified CD206 (mannose receptor)-binding peptide, mUNO was engineered to enhance its affinity and proteolytic stability. The new rationally designed peptide, MACTIDE, includes a trypsin inhibitor loop, from the Sunflower Trypsin Inhibitor-I.

Background: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) has a poor prognosis with current treatment options. Novel therapeutic strategies are urgently needed to enhance treatment outcomes for TNBC.
Objective: This study evaluated the efficacy of a three-agent regimen compared to existing treatment regimens in a TNBC mouse model, and elucidated its potential mechanisms of action.

We performed all-atom and coarse-grained simulations of lipid bilayer mixtures of the unsaturated lipid DOPC, with saturated lipids having the same 18-carbon acyl tails and different headgroups, to understand their mechanical properties. The secondary lipids were DSPG, DSPA, DSPS, DSPC, and DSPE. The DOPC:DSPG system with 65:35 molar ratio was the softest, with area compressibility modulus ∼ 22% smaller than the pure DOPC value.

Interferon-γ (IFN-γ) is a key mediator in antitumor immunity and immunotherapy responses, yet its clinical applications remain restricted to chronic granulomatous disease and malignant osteopetrosis. IFN-γ effectiveness as a standalone treatment has shown limited success in clinical trials and its potential for synergistic effects when combined with immunotherapies is under clinical exploration. A particularly compelling combination is that of IFN-γ with Toll-like receptor (TLR) agonists that holds significant promise for cancer treatment.
