Studies of the estrogen receptor (ER) coactivator protein Mediator subunit 1 (MED1) have revealed its specific roles in pubertal mammary gland development and potential contributions to breast tumorigenesis, based on coamplification MED1 HER2 certain cancers. In this study, we generated a mouse model tumorigenesis harboring MMTV-HER2 oncogene mutation evaluate role HER2-driven tumorigenesis. ER-interacting LxxLL motifs was sufficient delay tumor onset impair growth, metastasis, cancer...

MED1 (mediator subunit 1) co-amplifies with HER2, but its role in HER2-driven mammary tumorigenesis is still unknown. Here, we generate mammary-specific overexpression mice and cross them mouse tumor virus (MMTV)-HER2 mice. We observe significantly promoted onset, growth, metastasis, multiplicity of HER2 tumors by overexpression. Further studies reveal critical roles for epithelial-mesenchymal transition, cancer stem cell formation, response to anti-HER2 therapy. Mechanistically, RNA...

TPS1102 Background: There is no standard of care for HER2-positive breast cancer refractory to T-DM1. DS-8201a a novel HER2-targeted antibody-drug conjugate with humanized HER2 antibody attached topoisomerase I inhibitor payload by cleavable peptide-based linker (deruxtecan), and high drug-to-antibody ratio 7 8. In the ongoing phase 1 DS8201-A-J101 trial, showed manageable safety profile promising antitumor activity in subjects previously receiving T-DM1 (confirmed objective response rate...

TPS3116 Background: Downregulation of a number signaling pathways, including the mammalian target rapamycin (mTOR) pathway, has been demonstrated to be efficacious in large range solid tumors such as breast, colon, endometrial, glial and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, we find that rapamycins lead suppression negative feedback loop from S6 Kinase 1 (S6K1) Protein B (PKB), leading hyperactivation PKB. In pre-clinical studies using mouse model carcinogen-induced HCC, have combining...

Abstract Background: Fulvestrant is a well-established treatment for postmenopausal patients with estrogen receptor (ER) positive metastatic breast cancer, and some experience prolonged clinical benefit exceeding one year. HER2 activation major cause of endocrine resistance, cross-talk between HER2/neu ER coactivator MED1 regulates tamoxifen resistance in cancer cells. (Cancer Res 2012 1;72(21):5625-34.). In xenograft mouse model, suppression enhanced tumor growth inhibition by fulvestrant...

Abstract Breast cancer (BC) is one of the leading causes death for women in United States. This due, part, because wait too long to get a diagnosis or disease returns, sometimes years later, due ineffective treatment. Therefore, it critically important identify biomarkers that can better inform clinicians while providing screening test more amenable patients than mammograms. We are investigating feasibility using DEK protein levels patient plasma as biomarker stage and prognosis....
