In conclusion, our findings revealed functional and mechanistic links between miR-384 and ACVR1 in the progression of breast cancer. miR-384 not only plays an important role in the progression of breast cancer, but has promise as a potential therapeutic target for breast cancer especially for TNBC.
Genetic variation in bone morphogenetic proteins and breast cancer risk in hispanic and non-hispanic white women: The breast cancer health disparities study.
We performed a systematic expression survey of BMPs and their receptors in breast cancer. mRNA expression was studied of seven BMP ligands (BMP2-BMP8) and six receptors (ACVR1, BMPR1A, BMPR1B, BMPR2, ACVR2A, and ACVR2B) that specifically mediate BMP signals.
