Pentraxin-3 is a PI3K signaling target that promotes stem cell–like traits in basal-like breast cancers

TL;DR: Transcriptomic analysis of activated PIK3CA–expressing BLBC cells identified the gene encoding the humoral pattern recognition molecule pentraxin-3 (PTX3) as a critical target of oncogenic PI3K signaling and shows that PTX3 expression is greater in tumor samples from patients with BLBC and that it is prognostic of poor patient survival.
Journal ArticleDOI

Breast cancer molecular profiles and tumor response of neoadjuvant doxorubicin and paclitaxel: The I-SPY TRIAL (CALGB 150007/150012, ACRIN 6657)

TL;DR: The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the role of EMT in the development of central giant cell granuloma in meningitis and found that EMT may have an important role in the prognosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of HGF in obesity-associated tumorigenesis: C3(1)-TAg mice as a model for human basal-like breast cancer.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that HGF/c-Met plays an important role in obesity-associated carcinogenesis, and neutralization of secreted HGF blunted tumor cell migration, further linking obesity-mediated HGF-dependent effects to in vitro measures of tumor aggressiveness.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cdh1 and Pik3ca Mutations Cooperate to Induce Immune-Related Invasive Lobular Carcinoma of the Breast.

TL;DR: It is reported that deletion of Cdh1, together with activation of Pik3ca in mammary epithelium of genetically modified mice, leads to formation of IR-ILC-like tumors with immune cell infiltration, as well as gene expression linked to T-regulatory (Treg) cell signaling and activation of targetable immune checkpoint pathways.
