PI3K-AKT-mTOR inhibitors in breast cancers: From tumor cell signaling to clinical trials.

TLDR
The role of PI3K‐mTORC1/C2 alterations in determining the clinical outcome in the specific breast cancer subtypes is understood to help in the decision‐making the process for obtaining the treatment modalities towards further advancement of the precision medicine.

Novel mechanisms of glucocorticoid resistance in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

TL;DR: It is reported that PTEN activation contributes to trastuzumab's antitumor activity and PTEN deficiency is a powerful predictor for trastzumab resistance, suggesting that PI3K-targeting therapies could overcome this resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeting cancer stem cell pathways for cancer therapy

TL;DR: Molecules, vaccines, antibodies, and CAR-T (chimeric antigen receptor T cell) cells have been developed to specifically target CSCs, and some of these factors are already undergoing clinical trials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Branched Chain Amino Acids: Beyond Nutrition Metabolism

TL;DR: Current evidence supports BCAAs and their derivatives as the potential biomarkers of diseases such as insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes mellitus, cancer, and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), and optimizing dietary BCAA levels should have a positive effect on the parameters associated with health and diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

PROTACs: great opportunities for academia and industry.

TL;DR: Although PRTOACs have been widely explored throughout the world and have outperformed not only in cancer diseases, but also in immune disorders, viral infections and neurodegenerative diseases, more efforts are needed to gain to get deeper insight into the efficacy and safety of PROTACs in the clinic.
Journal ArticleDOI

Precision Medicine and Radiogenomics in Breast Cancer: New Approaches toward Diagnosis and Treatment

TL;DR: Radiogenomics may provide voxel-by-voxel genetic information for a complete, heterogeneous tumor or, in the setting of metastatic disease, set of tumors and thereby guide tailored therapy, thereby allowing for more precise imaging and screening.

Human breast cancer: correlation of relapse and survival with amplification of the HER-2/neu oncogene

TL;DR: Amplification of the HER-2/neu gene was a significant predictor of both overall survival and time to relapse in patients with breast cancer, and had greater prognostic value than most currently used prognostic factors in lymph node-positive disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Use of Chemotherapy plus a Monoclonal Antibody against HER2 for Metastatic Breast Cancer That Overexpresses HER2

TL;DR: The addition of trastuzumab to chemotherapy was associated with a longer time to disease progression, a higher rate of objective response, a longer duration of response, and a lower rate of death at 1 year.

- 04 Oct 2012 - 
TL;DR: The ability to integrate information across platforms provided key insights into previously defined gene expression subtypes and demonstrated the existence of four main breast cancer classes when combining data from five platforms, each of which shows significant molecular heterogeneity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Akt Promotes Cell Survival by Phosphorylating and Inhibiting a Forkhead Transcription Factor

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Akt also regulates the activity of FKHRL1, a member of the Forkhead family of transcription factors, which triggers apoptosis most likely by inducing the expression of genes that are critical for cell death, such as the Fas ligand gene.
