Disease: Malignant neoplasm of breast
Malignant neoplasm of breast
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE SIX1 glycolytic function is directly repressed by microRNA-548a-3p, which is downregulated, inversely correlates with SIX1, and is a good predictor of prognosis in breast cancer patients. 29455928 2018
CUI: C0006142
Disease: Malignant neoplasm of breast
Malignant neoplasm of breast
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Our analysis revealed that patients with SIX1 overexpression had worse overall survival (OS) (HR: 1.28, 95% CI: 1.03-1.58) and shorter relapse-free survival (RFS) (HR: 1.28, 95% CI: 1.05-1.56), and much worse prognosis for luminal breast cancer patients with SIX1 overexpression (OS: HR: 1.64, 95% CI: 1.13-2.39; RFS: HR: 1.43, 95% CI: 1.06-1.93). 27399099 2016
CUI: C0006142
Disease: Malignant neoplasm of breast
Malignant neoplasm of breast
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE In conclusion, the frequent upregulation of Six1 and/or downregulation of miR-204-5p in breast cancer may shift the equilibrium of these reciprocal regulations and lock breast cancer cells in the mesenchymal state. 26408179 2016
CUI: C0006142
Disease: Malignant neoplasm of breast
Malignant neoplasm of breast
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Importantly, SIX1 and EYA are often co-overexpressed in tumors, and the SIX1-EYA2 interaction has been shown to be critical for metastasis in a breast cancer model. 25555392 2015
CUI: C0006142
Disease: Malignant neoplasm of breast
Malignant neoplasm of breast
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE SIX1 overexpression was positively correlated with clinical stage, lymph node metastasis, Her2 expression status, and disease-free survival (DFS) and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates of patients with breast cancer. 25062904 2014
CUI: C0006142
Disease: Malignant neoplasm of breast
Malignant neoplasm of breast
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE In conclusion, these data suggest that Six1 may function as an important modifier of the paclitaxel response in breast cancer cells, and serve as a potential target for overcoming paclitaxel resistance in breast cancer. 24184484 2013
CUI: C0006142
Disease: Malignant neoplasm of breast
Malignant neoplasm of breast
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE As Six1 and Eya2 are not highly expressed in most adult tissues, the Six1-Eya interaction may be a valuable future therapeutic target whose inhibition would be expected to impair breast cancer progression while conferring limited side effects. 21706047 2012
CUI: C0006142
Disease: Malignant neoplasm of breast
Malignant neoplasm of breast
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE These data define a critical role for SIX1 in lymphatic dissemination of breast cancer cells, providing a direct mechanistic explanation for how VEGF-C expression is upregulated in breast cancer, resulting in lymphangiogenesis and metastasis. 22466647 2012
CUI: C0006142
Disease: Malignant neoplasm of breast
Malignant neoplasm of breast
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE High levels of Six1 are associated with adverse outcomes in luminal breast cancers, particularly the luminal B subtype. 22765220 2012
CUI: C0006142
Disease: Malignant neoplasm of breast
Malignant neoplasm of breast
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE The miR-106b-25 cluster targets Smad7, activates TGF-β signaling, and induces EMT and tumor initiating cell characteristics downstream of Six1 in human breast cancer. 22286770 2012
CUI: C0006142
Disease: Malignant neoplasm of breast
Malignant neoplasm of breast
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Our recent work shows that Six1 overexpression in human breast cancer cell lines is sufficient to induce epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and metastasis. 21056993 2010
CUI: C0006142
Disease: Malignant neoplasm of breast
Malignant neoplasm of breast
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE In this study, we investigate the mechanism by which the Six1 homeobox protein, which has a crucial role during development, is frequently deregulated in several poor outcome, aggressive, metastatic adult human cancers, including breast cancer, ovarian cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma and pediatric malignancies such as rhabdomyosarcoma and Wilms' tumor. 20603620 2010
CUI: C0006142
Disease: Malignant neoplasm of breast
Malignant neoplasm of breast
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Finally, we show that the effects of Six1 on tumor progression likely extend beyond breast cancer, since its overexpression correlated with adverse outcomes in numerous other cancers including brain, cervical, prostate, colon, kidney, and liver. 19726885 2009
