Unveiling breast cancer metastasis through an advanced X-ray imaging approach

Marianne Liebi

Breast cancer is a significant global health burden, causing a substantial number of deaths. Systemic metastatic tumour cell dissemination is a major cause of poor outcomes. Understanding the mechanisms underlying metastasis is crucial for effective interv ...

Milestones in tumor vascularization and its therapeutic targeting

Michele De Palma, Douglas Hanahan

Research into the mechanisms and manifestations of solid tumor vascularization was launched more than 50 years ago with the proposition and experimental demonstrations that angiogenesis is instrumental for tumor growth and was, therefore, a promising thera ...

Metabolic dependencies of metastasis-initiating cells in breast cancer

Candice Megan T Young

Metastasis is the process by which cancer cells from the primary tumor travel through the blood stream to generate a secondary tumor site in a distant organ. Although very few cells are able to make this journey, the resulting effects are dire since most c ...

Tumor dormancy: EMT beyond invasion and metastasis

Cathrin Brisken, Hazel Margaret Quinn, Patrik Aouad

More than two-thirds of cancer-related deaths are attributable to metastases. In some tumor types metastasis can occur up to 20 years after diagnosis and successful treatment of the primary tumor, a phenomenon termed late recurrence. Metastases arise from ...

Metabolic dependencies of metastasis-initiating cells in female breast cancer

Albert Santamaria Martinez, Pierre Vincent Dessen, Angela Madurga Alonso, Candice Megan T Young, Laurent Nam Ky Beziaud

Understanding the mechanisms that enable cancer cells to metastasize is essential in preventing cancer progression. Here we examine the metabolic adaptations of metastasis-initiating cells (MICs) in female breast cancer and how those shape their metastatic ...

Medical and Personal Characteristics Can Predict the Risk of Lung Metastasis

Michele De Palma, Nahal Mansouri

Aims: Understanding the correlations between underlying medical and personal characteristics of a patient with cancer and the risk of lung metastasis may improve clinical management and outcomes. We used machine learning methodologies to predict the risk o ...

Regulation and function of a hemicleaved Activin-A processing intermediate in melanoma

Manon Bulliard

Activin-A is a Transforming Growth Factor-B (TGFB)-related cytokine that regulates various biological processes including cell proliferation and differentiation through autocrine, paracrine or endocrine signaling. Activin-A expression is upregulated in mul ...

Optimized Modeling of Metastatic Triple-Negative Invasive Lobular Breast Carcinoma

Cathrin Brisken, Georgios Sflomos, Laura Battista

Simple Summary Invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) is the second most common histologic subtype of breast cancer and is often detected at an advanced stage. Up to 30% of ILC cases relapse and present a challenge for treatment. Unfortunately, there are few mod ...

Direct In Vivo Activation of T Cells with Nanosized Immunofilaments Inhibits Tumor Growth and Metastasis

Bart Deplancke, Guido Van Mierlo, Jorieke Weiden

Adoptive T cell therapyhas successfully been implementedfor thetreatment of cancer. Nevertheless, ex vivo expansion of T cells byartificial antigen-presenting cells (aAPCs) remains cumbersome andcan compromise T cell functionality, thereby limiting their t ...
