Mitotic gene bookmarking by RUNX1 contributes to stabilization of the normal mammary epithelial phenotype

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that RUNX1 mitotic bookmarking contributes to maintenance of the normal mammary epithelial phenotype, an essential first step in the onset of breast cancer.

Systematic Review of Roles of Arecoline and Arecoline N-Oxide in Oral Cancer and Strategies to Block Carcinogenesis

TL;DR: In this paper , the role of arecoline and areca nut in cancer and strategies to block carcinogenesis were analyzed. But little is known about whether their derived single-agent arecolines or arecolinea N-oxide (ANO) is carcinogenic, and the underlying mechanisms remain unclear.

Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1): an overview.

TL;DR: This review will discuss the biological processes and the structure and function of CCL2, one of the key chemokines that regulate migration and infiltration of monocytes/macrophages.

Evidence for a tumoral immune resistance mechanism based on tryptophan degradation by indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase

TL;DR: It is shown that most human tumors constitutively express IDO, and that expression of IDO by immunogenic mouse tumor cells prevents their rejection by preimmunized mice, suggesting that the efficacy of therapeutic vaccination of cancer patients might be improved by concomitant administration of an IDO inhibitor.

Circulating Breast Tumor Cells Exhibit Dynamic Changes in Epithelial and Mesenchymal Composition

TL;DR: A role for EMT in the blood-borne dissemination of human breast cancer is supported as both single cells and multicellular clusters, expressing known EMT regulators, including transforming growth factor (TGF)–β pathway components and the FOXC1 transcription factor.

Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition is dispensable for metastasis but induces chemoresistance in pancreatic cancer

TL;DR: This study functionally probes the role of EMT in PDAC by generating mouse models of PDAC with deletion of Snail or Twist, two key transcription factors responsible for EMT, and highlights the importance of combining EMT inhibition with chemotherapy for the treatment of pancreatic cancer.

Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition is not required for lung metastasis but contributes to chemoresistance

TL;DR: The potential of an EMT-targeting strategy, in conjunction with conventional chemotherapies, for breast cancer treatment is suggested, using a mesenchymal-specific Cre-mediated fluorescent marker switch system in spontaneous breast-to-lung metastasis models.
