PDK1-Dependent Metabolic Reprogramming Dictates Metastatic Potential in Breast Cancer

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that PDK1 is required for efficient liver metastasis, and its expression is elevated in liver metastases from breast cancer patients, and the data implicatePDK1 as a key regulator of metabolism and metastatic potential in breast cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bax forms multispanning monomers that oligomerize to permeabilize membranes during apoptosis

TL;DR: The results suggest that unlike most pore‐forming proteins, Bax membrane permeabilization results from oligomerization of transmembrane monomers rather than concerted insertion of the pore domains of a preformed oligomer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bcl-2 changes conformation to inhibit Bax oligomerization

TL;DR: Bcl‐2 functions as an inhibitor of mitochondrial permeabilization by changing conformation in the mitochondrial membrane to bind membrane‐inserted Bax monomers and prevent productive oligomerization of Bax.
Journal ArticleDOI

PGC-1α Promotes Breast Cancer Metastasis and Confers Bioenergetic Flexibility against Metabolic Drugs.

TL;DR: It is revealed that breast cancer cells that preferentially metastasize to the lung or bone display relatively high expression of PGC-1α compared with those that metastasized to the liver.
Journal ArticleDOI

ADAM10 releases a soluble form of the GPNMB/Osteoactivin extracellular domain with angiogenic properties.

TL;DR: Ectodomain shedding may serve as a novel mechanism by which GPNMB/OA promotes angiogenesis in breast cancer.
