Abstract

Globally, breast cancer is the most common type of cancer in females and is one of the leading causes of cancer death in women. The advancement in the targeted therapies and the slight understanding of the molecular cascades of the disease have led to small improvement in the rate of survival of breast cancer patients. However, metastasis and resistance to the current drugs still remain as challenges in the management of breast cancer patients. Metastasis, potentially, leads to failure of the available treatment, and thereby, makes the research on metastatic suppressors a high priority. Tumor metastasis suppressors are several genes and their protein products that have the capability of arresting the metastatic process without affecting the tumor formation. The metastasis suppressors KAI1 (also known as CD82) has been found to inhibit tumor metastasis in various types of solid cancers, including breast cancer. KAI1 was identified as a metastasis suppressor that inhibits the process of metastasis by regulating several mechanisms, including cell motility and invasion, induction of cell senescence, cell-cell adhesion and apoptosis. KAI1 is a member of tetraspanin membrane protein family. It interacts with other tetraspanins, chemo...Continue Reading

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function. Discover the latest research on adhesion molecule and their role in health and disease here.

Apoptosis in Cancer

Apoptosis is an important mechanism in cancer. By evading apoptosis, tumors can continue to grow without regulation and metastasize systemically. Many therapies are evaluating the use of pro-apoptotic activation to eliminate cancer growth. Here is the latest research on apoptosis in cancer.

Breast Invasive Carcinoma

Invasive breast cancers indicate a spread into breast tissues and lymph nodes. Here are the latest discoveries pertaining to breast invasive carcinomas.

Cancer Epigenetics and Senescence (Keystone)

Epigenetic changes are present and dysregulated in many cancers, including DNA methylation, non-coding RNA segments and post-translational protein modifications. The epigenetic changes may be involved in regulating senescence in cancer cells. This feed captures the latest research on cancer epigenetics and senescence.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis
