Further, the presence of the Nemod-TF1 epitope predicted worse prognosis in TA-MUC1 positive (overall survival: p = 0.026) as well as in triple negative (overall survival: p = 0.002; distant metastasis-free survival: p = 0.012) BC.
Transcription Factor Activator Protein 2γ (TFAP2C, AP-2γ) governs luminal breast cancer phenotype through direct and indirect regulation of ERα and ERα-associated genes, GATA3, FOXA1, EGFR, CDH1, DSP, KRT7, FBP1, MYB, RET, KRT8, MUC1, and ERBB2-genes which are responsible for the luminal signature in breast cancer.
In this study, we developed a simple and cost effective aptasensor based on TiO<sub>2</sub> nanotubes-reduced graphene oxide (TiO<sub>2</sub> nanotube-rGO) linked to MUC1 aptamers for ultrasensitive electrochemical detection of breast cancer cell (MCF-7).
<b>Areas covered</b>: A literature review based on the MEDLINE/PubMed search about biosimilars allied with the FDA and EMA's latest statements of this topic were conducted to summarize the development and the use of currently available biosimilars for BC, with a focus on trastuzumab.
Recently, we have developed a sensitive, simple and low-cost colorimetric aptasensor by designing a hairpin-like structure, which combined the highly specific MUC1 aptamer with a hemin/G-quadruplex for the detection of breast cancer exosomes.
Tumor-associated MUC1 is expressed on over 90 % of all breast cancer entities and differs strongly from its physiological form on epithelial cells, therefore presenting a unique target for breast cancer diagnosis and antibody-mediated immune therapy.
These results suggest that not only the quantity but also the cell-surface distribution of MUC1 affects the sensitivity of breast cancer cells to trastuzumab-mediated ADCC.
Using this method, we can isolate EVs from clinical samples and found that the amount of MUC1 positive EVs in breast cancer patient plasma sample is significantly higher than that in healthy donors.
This immune targeted nano biopolymer could condense the gene constructs that coded a transcriptionally targeted truncated -Bid (tBid) killer gene which was controlled by the breast cancer-specific MUC1 promoter.
Immunosensing of breast cancer tumor protein CA 15-3 (carbohydrate antigen 15.3) using a novel nano-bioink: A new platform for screening of proteins in human biofluids by pen-on-paper technology.
Inhibition of tumor recurrence was associated with significant serum level reductions of the human BC recurrence marker CA 15-3 at the study end in animals treated with OC.
PyMT (polyomavirus middle T-antigen) and human MUC1 double-transgenic mice expressing human tumor-associated MUC1 on breast tumor tissue served as a preclinical breast cancer model.
Monoclonal antibody, TAB004, specifically recognizes the aberrantly glycosylated tumor form of MUC1 (tMUC1) in all subtypes of breast cancer including 95% of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) while sparing recognition of normal tissue MUC1.
MUC1 is a glycoprotein that is normally expressed on glandular epithelium, but is overexpressed and under-glycosylated in most human cancers, including the majority of breast cancers.
Similarly, F3 significantly reduced the expression of MMP-9, MUC1, N-cadherin, Twist, VEGF and vimentin in comparison with the TM (p < 0.01) group CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that F3 exerts anti-metastatic effects independent of its cytotoxic effects, and these are supported by the increased expression of E-cadherin concurrent with downregulation of MMP-9, MUC1, N-cadherin, Twist, VEGF and vimentin expression in breast cancer.
In contrast, maternal immunisation and immunoglobulin production against antigens expressed on trophoblast cells, such as specific glycosylation patterns of mucin-1 or RCAS1-associated truncated glycans, seem to prevent breast cancer development in later years.
It is approved by FDA and EMA in association with tamoxifen or aromatase inhibitor (AI) and with fulvestrant and palbociclib in premenopausal women with hormone receptor (HR)-positive breast cancer.
Various tumor serum markers, such as carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), pro-gastrin-releasing peptide (ProGRP), neuron-specific enolase (NSE), and cancer antigen 15-3 (CA15-3), serve not only as prognostic indicators in lung and breast cancer but also as risk factors for IM development.
In this study, HER2 and MUC1-based peptides were synthesized and preclinically evaluated in an effort to develop peptide-based SPECT radiopharmaceuticals derived from tumor-associated antigens for the detection of breast cancer.
We propose that the plasma levels of miR-923 and CA 15-3, combined with standard clinicopathological predictors, could be used as a preoperative, noninvasive estimate of patient prognosis to identify which women might need more aggressive treatment or closer surveillance after surgery for breast cancer.
