PRMT3 regulates the progression of invasive micropapillary carcinoma of the breast.

ABSTRACT: Invasive micropapillary carcinoma (IMPC) is a special histopathological subtype of breast cancer. Clinically, IMPC exhibits a higher incidence of lymphovascular invasion and lymph node metastasis compared with that of invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC), the most common type. However, the metabolic characteristics and related mechanisms underlying malignant IMPC biological behaviors are unknown. We performed large-scale targeted metabolomics analysis on resected tumors obtained from chemotherapy-naïve IMPC (n = 25) and IDC (n = 26) patients to investigate metabolic alterations, and we integrated mass spectrometry analysis, RNA sequencing, and ChIP-sequencing data to elucidate the potential molecular mechanisms. The metabolomics revealed distinct metabolic profiles between IMPC and IDC. For IMP
