Article Abstract

BackgroundThe aggressive proliferation and spread of breast cancer contributes to a dismal clinical outcome. The present study was to investigate the function and underlying mechanism of the long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) PGM5-AS1 in the modulation of breast cancer.MethodsQuantitative real time-polymerase chain reaction was utilized to assess the levels of PGM5-AS1 and miR-18a-3p. The prognostic significance was evaluated through Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and multivariate Cox regression analysis. Cell viability in breast cancer cells was measured utilizing a cell counting kit-8 kit. Cell migration and invasion were investigated using a transwell assay. The targeted regulatory interaction between PGM5-AS1, miR-18a-3p, and TGFBR3 was validated via dual luciferase reporter gene assay.ResultLevels of PGM5-AS1 were low in both breast tissue and cancer cell lines. This reduction in expression was linked to various clinical characteristics and a reduced overall survival rate in breast cancer patients. Upregulation of PGM5-AS1 expression noticeably inhibited proliferation, migration, and invasion in breast cancer cells. PGM5-AS1 regulated breast cancer development by controlling the miR-18a-3p/TGFBR3 axis.ConclusionThe lncRNA PGM5-AS1/miR-18a-3p/TGFBR3 axis is considered a potential genetic target for the development of breast cancer treatments.

Chemotherapeutic resistance is a significant issue in the treatment of breast cancer, which is related to pyroptosis inhibition. Increasing evidence suggests that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) contribute to tumorigenesis and drug resistance. In this study we investigated the role of the lncRNA STMN1P2 in doxorubicin resistance in breast cancer, as well as its correlation with pyroptosis inhibition.

Purpose: Recent advancements in medical technologies have made trans-arterial treatment of breast cancer feasible. Consequently, understanding the vascular anatomies of breast cancers and axillary lymph node metastases has become indispensable for sophisticated treatments. The aim of this study was to determine the vascular anatomy of the breast, which is crucial for trans-arterial chemoembolization in patients with breast cancer.
