Mechanisms of Resistance to Trastuzumab and Novel Therapeutic Strategies in HER2-Positive Breast Cancer by Andrea L. A. Wong, Soo-Chin Lee

“…HER2-positive breast cancers have poorer prognosis and are prime candidates for molecular-targeted therapy because they are driven by the unique mechanism of HER2 oncogene addiction. While anti-HER2 agents such as trastuzumab and lapatinib are integral to the treatment of HER2-positive breast cancer, intrinsic and secondary resistance pose a significant challenge, underscoring the need to develop novel anti-HER2 therapies. …”

ncRNA-Mediated High Expression of LPCAT1 Correlates with Poor Prognosis and Tumor Immune Infiltration of Liver Hepatocellular Carcinoma by Qiu Sun, Xudong Liu, Qunlong Peng, Lei Hu, Xiaochun Jiang

“…In this study, expression analysis and survival analysis for LPCAT1 in pan cancers were first performed by using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) data, which suggested that LPCAT1 might be a potential LIHC oncogene. Then, ncRNAs contributing to the overexpression of LPCAT1 were explored in starBase by a combination of expression analysis, correlation analysis, and survival analysis. …”

Interactions between key genes and pathways in prostate cancer progression and therapy resistance by Fan Wu, Hengsen Zhang, Miaomiao Hao

“…Key genetic and pathway alterations include the amplification and/or mutation of the androgen receptor, the loss of Rb, PTEN, and p53, the activation of the WNT signaling pathway, and the amplification of the MYC oncogene. This review summarizes the mechanisms by which these genes influence the progression of prostate cancer and highlights the interactions between multiple genes and their relationship with prostate cancer. …”
