Exploring lipidomic profiles and their correlation with hormone receptor and HER2 status in breast cancer.

ABSTRACT: Dysregulated lipid metabolism promotes the progression of various cancer types, including breast cancer. The present study aimed to explore the lipidomic profiles of patients with breast cancer, providing insights into the correlation between lipid compositions and tumor subtypes characterized by hormone receptor (HR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) status. Briefly, 30 patients with breast cancer were categorized into four groups based on their HR and HER2 status: HR+ no HER2 expression (HER2-0), HR+ HER2-low; HR+ HER2-positive (pos) and HR- HER2-pos. The lipidomic profiles of these patients were analyzed using high-throughput liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. The data were processed through principal component analysis (PCA), partial least squares-discriminant a
