Abstract:
Abstract Introduction: The mammary gland is a dynamic organ that undergoes significant developmental changes during pregnancy, lactation, and involution. The process of involution is a highly orchestrated series of molecular and physical events that can be divided into two distinct phases. (Lund et al., 1996). Accumulation of milk in the alveolar lumen (milk stasis) is required to initiate the first phase during which the secretory cells begin to enter apoptosis. Here we provide genetic and molecular biological evidence to shows that the short-chain fatty acid Butyrate (BTR), a significant com

Abstract:
Abstract The mammary gland is a hormone sensitive organ that is susceptible to endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) during several vulnerable periods, including pregnancy and lactation. Mammary gland reorganization during pregnancy and lactation is hormone driven and provides long-term protection against breast cancer risk. It is unknown if EDC exposures during these sensitive windows can alter mammary reorganization to either enhance or offset parity-induced protection against breast cancer. Here, we examined effects of propylparaben (PP), a common preservative used in personal care products

Breast cancer is among the most common cancers in women, second to skin cancer. Mammary gland development can influence breast cancer development in later life. Processes such as proliferation, invasion, and migration during mammary gland development can often mirror processes found in breast cancer. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), small, non-coding RNAs, can repress post-transcriptional RNA expression and can regulate up to 80% of all genes. Expression of miRNAs play a key role in mammary gland development, and aberrant expression can initiate or promote breast cancer. Here, we review the role of miRNAs

Abstract:
Abstract Introduction: Breast cancer (BC) remains a leading cause of cancer-associated mortality for women in the USA, which makes it critically important to identify and study molecular drivers of pathogenesis. We have previously identified the chromatin modifying DEK protein to have oncogenic properties. DEK is a histone H3 chaperone that is over-expressed in over 60% of breast cancers, particularly triple negative breast cancers, and is associated with poor survival. To date, all studies regarding the role of DEK in BC have manipulated DEK expression in cultured immortalized MCF10A human ma

Cellular plasticity is a phenomenon where cells adopt different identities during development and tissue homeostasis as a response to physiological and pathological conditions. This review provides a general introduction to processes by which cells change their identity as well as the current definition of cellular plasticity in the field of mammary gland biology. Following a synopsis of the evolving model of the hierarchical development of mammary epithelial cell lineages, we discuss changes in cell identity during normal mammary gland development with particular emphasis on the effect of the

Transgenic (TG) mice expressing human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) β-subunit under the ubiquitin C promoter, presenting with a moderately elevated level of LH/hCG bioactivity develop multiple neoplasms secondary to the endocrine abnormalities, including mammary gland tumors after the age of 9 months. The increased levels of circulating estradiol, progesterone, and prolactin of the TG females after puberty boost the lobuloalveolar development in the mammary gland resulting ultimately in the formation of estrogen and progesterone receptor-negative, malignant tumors.

Abstract:
The most common neoplasia in female dogs is a mammary tumour, which typically manifests between the ages of 9 and 11. The posterior mammary glands are more commonly affected than the anterior glands, and they might manifest as a single or multiple nodules. Dogs can develop benign as well as malignant tumours; based on histological criteria, around half of the tumours are malignant. A broad spectrum of pathogenic characteristics and clinical signs can be seen in mammary gland tumours. A variety of hormones and growth factors are important in the formation of this tumour, but research is still o

Conversely, Dek knockout mice exhibited mammary gland functional defects resulting in dramatically reduce

The steroid hormones 17 beta-estradiol and progesterone play a central role in the pathogenesis of breast cancer and regulate key phases of mammary gland development. This suggests that developmental regulatory molecules whose activity is influenced by ovarian hormones may also contribute to mammary carcinogenesis.

Here, we report that Furin is frequently overexpressed in TNBC tumors and this correlates with poor prognosis in patients with TNBC tumors.

Breast cancer (BC) remains one of the most prevalent cancers in the world thus prompting efforts in risk reduction and prevention. Current strategies for prevention are limited to hormone therapy or prophylactic surgery, which are not without complication. Patients with preinvasive malignant lesions of the breast, including ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), if left untreated or after surgical resection, have a higher risk of developing invasive BC (IBC). In addition, clinical studies have shown that a subset of DCIS patients who did not progress to invasive disease died from recurrence or dista

In addition to estrogens, the bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) family is involved in breast stem cell/progenitor commitment. However, these two pathways that synergistically contribute to the biology of the normal mammary gland have also been described to initiate and/or promote breast cancer development.
