Published: September 2024

Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) has gained interest as a therapeutic target for type 2 diabetes and obesity. Besides metabolic signalling, PTP1B is a positive regulator of signalling pathways linked to ErbB2-induced breast tumorigenesis. Substantial evidence proves that its overexpression is involved in breast cancer, which suggests that selective PTP1B inhibition might be effective in breast cancer treatment. Therefore, huge research is being carried out on PTP1B inhibitors and their activity against breast cancer development. To date, only two PTP1B inhibitors, viz. ertiprotafib and trodusquemine, have entered clinical trials. The discovery of selective inhibitors of PTP1B could open a new avenue in breast cancer treatment. In this review, we provide an extensive overview on the involvement of PTP1B in breast cancer, its pathophysiology, with special attention on the discovery and development of various natural as well as synthetic PTP1B inhibitors. This study will provide significant information to the researchers developing PTP1B inhibitors for breast cancer treatment.

Air pollution and breast cancer risk: a Mendelian randomization study.

Int J Environ Health Res

Department of Oncology, Guang'anmen Hospital, China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, Beijing, China.

Previous research yields inconsistent findings on the association between air pollution and breast cancer risk, with no definitive causal relationship established. To address this, we conducted a two-sample Mendelian randomization study on data from the IEU open GWAS databases and the Breast Cancer Association Consortium to explore the potential link between air pollution (including PM, PM absorbance, PM, PM, NO, and NO) and breast cancer risk. We found that PM (odds ratio (OR) = 1.

Apatinib and trastuzumab-based chemotherapy for heavily treated primary trastuzumab-resistant metastatic breast cancer.

J Cancer Res Ther

December 2024

Department of Medical Oncology, National Cancer Center/National Clinical Research Center for Cancer/Cancer Hospital and Shenzhen Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College, Shenzhen, People's Republic of China.

Background: The low incidence and poor prognosis primary trastuzumab resistance (PTR) in HER2-positive breast cancer has limited research into possible treatments. Thus, it remains unclear whether this group of patients could benefit from nontargeting HER2 antiangiogenic therapy.

Patients And Methods: We collected the medical data for HER2-positive patients with PTR who received apatinib 250 mg and trastuzumab-based chemotherapy (ATBC) between March 18, 2017, and March 31, 2022.

Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) are key components of the tumor microenvironment (TME) and serve as prognostic markers for breast cancer. Patients with high TIL infiltration generally experience better clinical outcomes and extended survival compared to those with low TIL infiltration. However, as the TME is highly complex and TIL subtypes perform distinct biological functions, TILs may only provide an approximate indication of tumor immune status, potentially leading to biased prognostic results.

Purpose: Mammary carcinoma is comprised heterogeneous groups of cells with different metastatic potential. 4T1 mammary carcinoma cells metastasized to heart (4THM), liver (4TLM) and brain (4TBM) and demonstrate cancer-stem cell phenotype. Using these cancer cells we found thatTGF-β is the top upstream regulator of metastatic process.
