Article Citation - WoS: 1Aso Visual Abstract: Intervention for Hepatic and Pulmonary Metastases in Breast Cancer Patients-Prospective, Multi-Institutional Registry Study: Imet; Protocol Mf 14-02(Springer, 2022) Soran, Atilla; Özbaş, Serdar; Özçınar, Beyza; Işık, Arda; Doğan, L.; Şenol, Kazım; Dağ, Ahmet; Karanlık, Hasan; Aytaç, Özgür; Karadeniz Çakmak, Güldeniz; Dalcı, Kubilay; Doğan, Mutlu; Sezer, Atakan Y.; Gökgöz, Şehsuvar; Özyar, Enis; Sezgin, EfeThe aim of our prospective, multicenter registry study was to investigate the importance of interventions for operable lung and/or liver metastasis for breast cancer (BC) survival (https://doi.org/10.1245/s10434-022-12239-z). The results reveal that surgical resection or ablative interventions may contribute to survival in patients with BC with limited number and operable metachronous hepatic/pulmonary metastases. Ultimately, randomized studies will determine whether intervention on lung and liver metastatic sites should be performed. In the meantime, such interventions can be considered on select patients.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 8Intervention for Hepatic and Pulmonary Metastases in Breast Cancer Patients: Prospective, Multi-Institutional Registry Study-Imet, Protocol Mf 14-02(Springer, 2022) Soran, Atilla; Özbaş, Serdar; Özçınar, Beyza; Işık, Arda; Doğan, Lütfi; Şenol, Kazım; Dağ, Ahmet; Karanlık, Hasan; Aytaç, Özgür; Karadeniz Çakmak, Güldeniz; Dalcı, Kubilay; Doğan, Mutlu; Sezer, Atakan Y.; Gökgöz, Şehsuvar; Özyar, Enis; Sezgin, EfeBackground: One fourth of early-stage breast cancer cases become metastatic during the follow-up period. Limited metastasis is a metastatic disease condition in which the number of metastatic sites and the extent of the disease both are limited, and the disease is amenable to metastatic intervention. This prospective study aimed to evaluate intervention for limited metastases in the lung, liver, or both. Methods: The study enrolled luminal A/B and/or human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-neu+ patients with operable lung and/or liver metastases in the follow-up assessment after completion of primary breast cancer treatment and patients with a diagnosis of metastasis after 2014. Demographic, clinical, tumor-specific, and metastasis detection-free interval (MDFI) data were collected. Bone metastasis in addition to lung and liver metastases also was included in the analysis. The patients were divided into two groups according to the method of treatment for metastases: systemic therapy alone (ST) group or intervention (IT) group.Article Citation - WoS: 24Citation - Scopus: 23On-Chip Determination of Tissue-Specific Metastatic Potential of Breast Cancer Cells(Wiley, 2021) Fıratlıgil Yıldırır, Burcu; Batı Ayaz, Gizem; Tahmaz, İsmail; Bilgen, Müge; Pesen Okvur, Devrim; Yalçın Özuysal, ÖzdenMetastasis is one of the major obstacles for breast cancer patients. Limitations of current models demand the development of custom platforms to predict metastatic potential and homing choices of cancer cells. Here, two organ-on-chip platforms, invasion/chemotaxis (IC-chip) and extravasation (EX-chip) were used for the quantitative assessment of invasion and extravasation towards specific tissues. Lung, liver and breast microenvironments were simulated in the chips using tissue-specific cells embedded in matrigel. In the IC-chip, invasive MDA-MB-231, but not noninvasive MCF-7 breast cancer cells invaded into lung and liver microenvironments. In the EX-chip, MDA-MB-231 cells extravasated more into the lung compared to the liver and breast microenvironments. In addition, lung-specific MDA-MB-231 clone invaded and extravasated into the lung microenvironment more efficiently than the bone-specific clone. Both invasion/chemotaxis and extravasation results were in agreement with published clinical data. Collectively, our results show that IC-chip and EX-chip, simulating tissue-specific microenvironments, can distinguish different in vivo metastatic phenotypes, in vitro. Determination of tissue-specific metastatic potential of breast cancer cells is expected to improve diagnosis and help select the ideal therapy.Article Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 11Intersection of Microrna and Gene Regulatory Networks and Their Implication in Cancer(Bentham Science Publishers B.V., 2014) Yousef, Malik; Trinh, Hung V.; Allmer, JensMicroRNAs (miRNAs) have attracted heightened attention for their role as post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression. It has become clear that miRNAs can both up- and downregulate protein expression. According to current estimates, most human genes are harboring miRNAs and/or are regulated by them. Thus miRNAs form a complex network of expression regulation which tightly interacts with known gene regulatory networks. Similar to some transcription factors, some miRNAs can have hundreds of target transcripts whose expression they modulate. Thus miRNAs can form complex regulatory networks by themselves, but because their expression is often tightly coordinated with gene expression, they form an intertwined regulatory network with many possible interactions among gene and miRNA regulatory pathways. In this review we first consider gene regulatory networks. Then we discuss microRNAs and their implication in cancer and how they may form regulatory networks. Finally, we give our perspective and provide an outlook including the aspect of personalized medicine.
