Journal ArticleDOI
Breast Cancer Metastasis Suppressor 1 Up-regulates miR-146, Which Suppresses Breast Cancer Metastasis
Douglas R. Hurst,Mick D. Edmonds,Gary K. Scott,Christopher C. Benz,Kedar S. Vaidya,Danny R. Welch +5 more
TL;DR: Results further support the recent notion that modulating the levels of miR-146a or miB-146b could have a therapeutic potential to suppress breast cancer metastasis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Defining the Hallmarks of Metastasis
Danny R. Welch,Douglas R. Hurst +1 more
TL;DR: By defining these first principles of metastasis, this review identifies four distinguishing features that are required: motility and invasion, ability to modulate the secondary site or local microenvironments, plasticity, and ability to colonize secondary tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metastamir: The Field of Metastasis-Regulatory microRNA Is Spreading
TL;DR: Understanding how these metastasis-associated miRNA, which the authors term metastamir, are involved in metastasis will help identify possible biomarkers or targets for the most lethal attribute of cancer: metastasis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Requirement of KISS1 Secretion for Multiple Organ Metastasis Suppression and Maintenance of Tumor Dormancy
Kevin T. Nash,Pushkar A. Phadke,Jean-Marc Navenot,Douglas R. Hurst,Mary Ann Accavitti-Loper,Elizabeth Sztul,Kedar S. Vaidya,Andra R. Frost,John C. Kappes,Stephen C. Peiper,Danny R. Welch +10 more
TL;DR: KISS1 secretion was required for multiple organ metastasis suppression and for maintenance of disseminated cells in a dormant state and the results imply the existence of another KISS1 receptor and/or paracrine signaling.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inhibition of CXCR4 by CTCE-9908 inhibits breast cancer metastasis to lung and bone
Monica M. Richert,Kedar S. Vaidya,Caroline N. Mills,Donald Wong,Walter Korz,Douglas R. Hurst,Danny R. Welch +6 more
TL;DR: The use of CTCE-9908 is promising as an adjuvant therapy for metastatic disease because it decreases metastatic burden in all organs examined and the presence of fluorescent foci at metastatic sites was assessed.
