Targeting Breast Cancer Metastasis
Metastasis is the leading cause of breast cancer-associated deaths. Despite the significant improvement in current therapies in extending patient life, 30-40% of patients may eventually suffer from distant relapse and succumb to the disease. Consequently, a deeper understanding of the metastasis biology is key to developing better treatment strategies and achieving long-lasting therapeutic effi...
متن کاملFacial metastasis from colon cancer.
Facial metastasis from colorectal cancer is very unusual. Herein, we report a 53-year-old man with history of colon cancer who was referred to our clinic because of an asymptomatic nodule on his chin for one year. Histopathologic examination of the nodule revealed metastatic adenocarcinoma, which was similar to that of the primary colon adenocarcinoma. The patient underwent radiotherapy for his...
متن کاملSilencing of CXCR4 blocks breast cancer metastasis.
RNA interference technology, silencing targeted genes in mammalian cells, has become a powerful tool for studying gene function. For the first time in cancer research, we show that direct injection of a pool of naked small interfering RNA (siRNA) duplexes can prevent tumorigenesis in an animal model, suggesting a novel preventive and therapeutic strategy for cancer management. As a model system...
متن کاملThe T-LAK Cell-originated Protein Kinase Signal Pathway Promotes Colorectal Cancer Metastasis
Approximately 90% of all cancer deaths arise from the metastatic dissemination of primary tumors. Metastasis is the most lethal attribute of colorectal cancer. New data regarding the molecules contributing to the metastatic phenotype, the pathways they control and the genes they regulate are very important for understanding the processes of metastasis prognosis and prevention in the clinic. The...
متن کاملTargeting lemurs against cancer metastasis
Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer and the leading cause of mortality in females worldwide. Despite the great improvement in survival rates the last two decades, relapsed disease with metastasis still remains the most poorly understood aspect of cancer pathogenesis [1]. Consequently, there is a growing need to identify so-called new ‘players’ implicated in this process. Lemur...
