Cell phenotype underlies prostate cancer presentation and treatment resistance can be regulated by epigenomic features. However, the osteotropic tendency of limits access to metastatic tissue, meaning most prior insights into chromatin biology are from preclinical models that do not fully represent disease complexity. Noninvasive immunoprecipitation histones in plasma cell-free humans may enable capture disparate phenotypes. Here, we analyzed activating promoter- enhancer-associated H3K4me2...

However, the osteotropic tendency of limits access to metastatic tissue, meaning most prior insights into chromatin biology are from preclinical models that do not fully represent disease complexity. Noninvasive immunoprecipitation histones in plasma cell–free DNA (cfDNA) humans may enable capture disparate phenotypes. In this study, we analyzed...

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the subtype with poorest prognosis and lacks actionable molecular targets for treatment. Maternal embryonic leucine zipper kinase (MELK) highly expressed in TNBC has been implicated poor clinical outcomes, though its mechanistic role aggressive biology of poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate a MELK progression metastasis. Analysis publicly available datasets revealed that high expression correlates worse overall survival, recurrence-free distant...

Background: Due to the lack of molecular-targeted therapies for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), there have been efforts use multimodal strategies enhance efficacy existing such as radiation. The androgen receptor (AR) has identified a radiosensitizing target and is expressed in 25-50% TNBC tumors. combination AR inhibitors, enzalutamide (enza), radiation therapy (RT), leads radiosensitization AR+ models but mechanism by which mediates radioresistance not known, targeting this could...

Abstract Background: Breast cancer (BC), the most common globally and a leading cause of death in women, often utilizes radiation therapy (RT) as part treatment, with over 85% patients receiving RT after breast-conserving surgery. Still, 15% women experience local recurrence despite RT, underscoring need to better understand molecular mechanisms driving response resistance. We hypothesized that transcriptomic changes occur ionizing intrinsically radiosensitive resistant BC models would offer...
