BACKGROUND: Metabolomic characterization of tumours can potentially improve prediction of cancer prognosis and treatment response. Here, we describe efforts to validate previous metabolomic findings using a historical cohort of breast cancer patients and discuss challenges with u...

Breast cancer metastasis occurs via blood and lymphatic vessels. Breast cancer cells 'educate' lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) to support tumor vascularization and growth. However, despite known metabolic alterations in breast cancer, it remains unclear how lymphatic endothelial cell metabolis...

An antipsychotic drug, Thioridazine has been shown to inhibit a broad spectrum of cancer cells. However, its molecular mechanism is still not well understood. In the present study, we have shown that thioridazine induces cytostatic effects in both parental and tamoxifen-resistant cancer cells throug...

Sample collection can significantly affect measurements of relative lipid concentrations in cell line panels, hiding intrinsic biological properties of interest between cell lines. Most quality control steps in lipidomic data analysis focus on controlling technical variation. Correcting for the t...

PURPOSE: Detecting signals of micrometastatic disease in early breast cancer (EBC) patients could improve risk stratification and allow better tailoring of adjuvant therapies. We have previously shown that postoperative serum metabolomic profiles are predictive of relapse in a si...

Activating PIK3CA mutations, present in up to 40% of hormone receptor-positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (Her2-) breast cancer (BC) patients, can be effectively targeted with the alpha isoform-specific PI3K inhibitor Alpelisib. This treatment significantly improves ...

BACKGROUND: Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is the earliest stage of breast cancer. During DCIS, tumor cells remain inside the mammary duct, growing under a microenvironment characterized by hypoxia, nutrient starvation, and waste product accumulation; this harsh microenvironment promotes genomic in...

Dysregulated lipid metabolism promotes the progression of various cancers, including breast cancer. This study aimed to explore the lipidomic profiles of breast cancer patients, providing insights into the correlation between lipid compositions and tumor subtypes characterized by hormone receptor (H...

Selective autophagy of mitochondria is known to promote survival and progression of cancer cells in various malignancies, including triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Here, we investigate the essential metabolic adaptations that support mitochondrial quality control in cancer cells with the ai...

1H NMR is used to detect alterations in metabolites and their linkage to metabolic processes in a number of pathological conditions including breast cancer. Inositol 1, 4, 5 trisphosphate (IP3R) receptor is an intracellular calcium channel known to regulate metabolism and cellular bioenergetics. Its...
