Summary: Comparing gene expression profiles of malignant parts and normal adjacent parts of TNBC breasts revealed that CYP-mediated pathways may drive TNBC. However, despite being expressed in TNBC, ER13 is unlikely to be a tumor suppressor as its absence of main tethering partners renders it ineffective on genes related to proliferation and inflammation.

Summary: TNBC lacks an effective treatment target and is usually associated with a poor clinical outcome due to hormone unresponsiveness. Besides ER-alpha, other sex steroid receptors like AR, ER-beta, and GPER are frequently expressed in TNBC, highlighting the importance of understanding their biological and clinical significance in TNBC. A comprehensive viewpoint on the role of sex steroid hormones in TNBC is crucial for correctly understanding the association between the carcinogenic mechanism or pathobiology of TNBC and sex steroid hormones.

Summary: This study compared the response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy and survival between patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and non-TNBC. The results showed that TNBC patients had higher pathologic complete response rates but lower 3-year progression-free survival rates and 3-year overall survival rates. TNBC was associated with increased risk for visceral metastases, lower risk for bone recurrence, and shorter postrecurrence survival. Patients with TNBC had worse survival if they had residual disease after neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Summary: Breast cancer is a common cancer among women worldwide, and there is increasing interest in the impact of pesticides on its progression. This study found that exposure to Hexachlorobenzene (HCB), a pesticide, promoted migration and invasion in triple-negative breast cancer cells. The study also revealed that HCB altered the levels of certain receptors and enzymes, contributing to the progression of HER2-positive breast cancer.

Summary: The calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) is important in maintaining calcium balance and altered signaling through CaSR is associated with the development of various tumors including colorectal and breast tumors. A retrospective study involving 79 patients with invasive breast carcinoma explored the expression of CaSR in breast cancer. The study found that higher CaSR expression was correlated with larger tumor size, presence of HER2 receptors, lymph node involvement, distant metastasis, and increased Ki-67 proliferation index. This suggests that higher CaSR expression may indicate a poor prognosis and treatment outcome in breast cancer.

Summary: The presence of estrogen receptor beta (ER beta) is inversely correlated with the occurrence of colorectal cancer (CRC), and low expression of ER beta is associated with poorer overall survival of CRC patients. ER beta can inhibit tumorigenesis through various molecular pathways and also has an impact on the hypoxic response in CRC cells.

Summary: Breast cancer, particularly estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer, is a prevalent disease among women in economically developing countries. Current endocrine therapies for ER+ breast cancer exhibit effectiveness but are associated with severe side effects and resistance. This study investigates the potential of Cyclopia subternata Vogel extracts to modulate estrogen receptor subtypes and inhibit breast cancer proliferation. The results show that the extracts SM6Met and cup of tea reduce estrogen receptor alpha (ERa) protein levels while elevating estrogen receptor beta (ERb) protein levels, leading to a decreased ERa:ERb ratio similar to standard endocrine therapies. Additionally, the extracts regulate estrogen receptor alpha and estrogen receptor beta protein levels through transcriptional and translational, and proteasomal degradation mechanisms. These findings suggest that Cyclopia subternata Vogel extracts could be explored as potential therapeutics for breast cancer.

Summary: AIB1 is identified as a key regulator in ER+ metastatic cancer cells, functioning as a survival factor, transcriptional repressor, and driver of EMT through inhibiting CDH1. Pharmacological and genetic inhibition of AIB1 shows significant anti-proliferative activity, establishing AIB1 as a promising target for endocrine resistant metastasis.

Summary: The study aims to review the effects of environmentally-relevant EDC concentrations on adult male and female fertility, with substantial evidence supporting a negative association between exposure to certain EDCs and male fertility. Moderate evidence exists for a negative association between specific EDCs and female fertility. There is a lack of data for both sexes for all major EDC classes, indicating the need for more research in this area to understand the impact on human fertility.

Summary: This study demonstrated the potential role of ESR1 mutations in distant recurrence of breast cancer. Through transcriptomic profiling and functional experiments, it was shown that ESR1 mutations altered the cell adhesive gene network, leading to enhanced cell-cell contacts and decreased cell-extracellular matrix adhesion. Additionally, ESR1-mutant cells formed larger and more compact multicellular circulating tumor cell clusters in vivo, and ESR1 mutations were associated with enrichment of circulating tumor cell clusters in metastatic breast cancer patients.

ER beta was found to be expressed in approximately 18% of TNBCs and its expression was associated with favorable clinicopathological features. Mechanistically, ER beta formed a co-repressor complex to suppress oncogenic NF kappa B/RELA (p65) activity.

Summary: Compartmentalization of GPCR signaling is an emerging topic that emphasizes the importance of spatial bias in signaling for physiological relevance. PTH1R was the first GPCR discovered to signal via cAMP from endosomes, challenging the conventional model of GPCR signaling. The location of cAMP generation determines the physiological outcomes of GPCR signaling.

Summary: Defects in trophoblastic EMT caused by dysregulation of circTNRC18's interaction with LIN28A play a vital role in the development of preeclampsia. LIN28A overexpression suppresses circTNRC18-mediated inhibition of trophoblast migration, invasion, and EMT, while LIN28A knockdown promotes them. Furthermore, circTNRC18 regulates the intracellular distribution of LIN28A and the expression of insulin-like growth factor II, affecting cell migration and invasion. Targeting the circTNRC18-LIN28A regulatory axis may provide a novel treatment approach for preeclampsia.
