Abstract
Obesity is associated with one-fifth of cancer deaths, and breast cancer is one of the obesity-related cancers. Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) lacks estrogen and progesterone receptors and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2, leading to the absence of these therapeutic targets, followed by poor overall survival. We investigated if obesity could hasten TNBC progression and intermittent fasting (IF) could attenuate the progression of obesity-related TNBC. Our meta-analysis of the TNBC outcomes literature showed that obesity led to poorer overall survival in TNBC patients. Fasting-mimicking media reduced cell proliferation disrupted the cell cycle, and decreased cell migration and invasion. IF decreased body weight in obese mice but no change in normal mice. Obese mice exhibited elevated plasma glucose and cholesterol levels, increased tumor volume and weight, and enhanced macrophage accumulation in tumors. The obesity-exacerbated TNBC progression was attenuated after IF, which decreased cyclin B1 and vimentin levels and reduced the proinflammatory signature in the obesity-associated tumor microenvironment. IF attenuated obesity-induced TNBC progression through reduced obesity and tumor burdens in cell and animal experiments, supporting the potential of a cost-effective adjuvant IF therapy for TNBC through lifestyle change. Further evidence is needed of these IF benefits in TNBC, including from human clinical trials.

Association between high body mass index and prognosis of patients with early-stage breast cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis. CANCER PATHOGENESIS AND THERAPY 2023; 1:205-215. [PMID: 38327841 PMCID: PMC10846319 DOI: 10.1016/j.cpt.2023.03.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2022] [Revised: 03/10/2023] [Accepted: 03/28/2023] [Indexed: 02/09/2024]
Abstract
Background A high body mass index (BMI) can indicate overweight or obesity and is a crucial risk factor for breast cancer survivors. However, the association between high BMI and prognosis in early-stage breast cancer (EBC) remains unclear. We aimed to assess the effects of high BMI on the prognosis of patients with EBC. Methods The PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases and proceedings of major oncological conferences related to the effects of BMI on the prognosis of breast cancer were searched up to November 2021. Fixed- and random-effects models were used for meta-analyses. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were extracted from the included literature. Results Twenty retrospective cohort studies with 33,836 patients with EBC were included. Overweight patients had worse DFS (HR: 1.16, 95% CI: 1.05-1.27, P = 0.002) and OS (HR: 1.20; 95% CI: 1.09-1.33, P < 0.001). Obesity also had adverse effects on DFS (HR: 1.17, 95% CI: 1.07-1.29, P = 0.001) and OS (HR: 1.30, 95% CI: 1.17-1.45, P < 0.001). Likewise, patients with high BMI had worse DFS (HR: 1.16, 95% CI: 1.08-1.26, P < 0.001) and OS (HR: 1.25, 95% CI: 1.14-1.39, P < 0.001). In subgroup analyses, overweight had adverse effects on DFS (HR: 1.11, 95% CI: 1.04-1.18, P = 0.001) and OS (HR: 1.18, 95% CI: 1.11-1.26, P < 0.001) in multivariate analyses, whereas the relationship that overweight had negative effects on DFS (HR: 1.21, 95% CI: 0.99-1.48, P = 0.058) and OS (HR: 1.39, 95% CI: 0.92-2.10, P = 0.123) was not statistically significant in univariate analysis. By contrast, obesity had adverse effects on DFS (HR: 1.21, 95% CI: 1.06-1.38, P = 0.004 and HR: 1.14, 95% CI: 1.08-1.22, P < 0.001) and OS (HR: 1.33, 95% CI: 1.15-1.54, P < 0.001 and HR: 1.23, 95% CI: 1.15-1.31, P < 0.001) in univariate and multivariate analyses, respectively. Conclusions Compared with normal weight, increased body weight (overweight, obesity, and high BMI) led to worse DFS and OS in patients with EBC. Once validated, these results should be considered in the development of prevention programs.

Abstract
As one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers in women around the world, breast cancer has been detailed studied. This study aimed to identify the expression of c19orf48 in several kinds of cancers including liver, lung and breast cancers etc. The driving factors behind it were analysed and it found that the amplification of c19orf48 may relate with the elevated expression. At the same time, the correlation between the expression of it and the survival time in breast cancer patients was explored. It was found that the c19orf48 expression at transcriptional level elevated in breast cancer tissue samples compared with the normal. It was inferred that the c19orf48 play its oncogenic role in development of breast cancer by involving in cell-cycle related biological process. In conclusion, c19orf48 may be a useful and predictive biomarker for the prognosis of breast cancer patients. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report describing the expression of c19orf48, the potential driving factor led to this and its effect.

Postdiagnosis body fatness, weight change and breast cancer prognosis: Global Cancer Update Program (CUP global) systematic literature review and meta-analysis. Int J Cancer 2023; 152:572-599.

Abstract
Previous evidence on postdiagnosis body fatness and mortality after breast cancer was graded as limited-suggestive. To evaluate the evidence on body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, waist-hip-ratio and weight change in relation to breast cancer prognosis, an updated systematic review was conducted. PubMed and Embase were searched for relevant studies published up to 31 October, 2021. Random-effects meta-analyses were conducted to estimate summary relative risks (RRs). The evidence was judged by an independent Expert Panel using pre-defined grading criteria. One randomized controlled trial and 225 observational studies were reviewed (220 publications). There was strong evidence (likelihood of causality: probable) that higher postdiagnosis BMI was associated with increased all-cause mortality (64 studies, 32 507 deaths), breast cancer-specific mortality (39 studies, 14 106 deaths) and second primary breast cancer (11 studies, 5248 events). The respective summary RRs and 95% confidence intervals per 5 kg/m2 BMI were 1.07 (1.05-1.10), 1.10 (1.06-1.14) and 1.14 (1.04-1.26), with high between-study heterogeneity (I2 = 56%, 60%, 66%), but generally consistent positive associations. Positive associations were also observed for waist circumference, waist-hip-ratio and all-cause and breast cancer-specific mortality. There was limited-suggestive evidence that postdiagnosis BMI was associated with higher risk of recurrence, nonbreast cancer deaths and cardiovascular deaths. The evidence for postdiagnosis (unexplained) weight or BMI change and all outcomes was graded as limited-no conclusion. The RCT showed potential beneficial effect of intentional weight loss on disease-free-survival, but more intervention trials and well-designed observational studies in diverse populations are needed to elucidate the impact of body composition and their changes on breast cancer outcomes.

Abstract
Salt stress is one of the major causes of reduced crop production, limiting agricultural development globally. Plants have evolved with complex systems to maintain the balance between growth and stress responses, where signaling pathways such as hormone signaling play key roles. Recent studies revealed that hormones are modulated by microRNAs (miRNAs). Previously, two sweet sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) inbred lines with different salt tolerance were identified: the salt-tolerant M-81E and the salt-sensitive Roma. The levels of endogenous hormones in M-81E and Roma varied differently under salt stress, showing a different balance between growth and stress responses. miRNA and degradome sequencing showed that the expression of many upstream transcription factors regulating signal transduction and hormone-responsive genes was directly induced by differentially expressed miRNAs, whose levels were very different between the two sweet sorghum lines. Furthermore, the effects of representative miRNAs on salt tolerance in sorghum were verified through a transformation system mediated by Agrobacterium rhizogenes. Also, miR-6225-5p reduced the level of Ca2+ in the miR-6225-5p-overexpressing line by inhibiting the expression of the Ca2+ uptake gene SbGLR3.1 in the root epidermis and affected salt tolerance in sorghum. This study provides evidence for miRNA-mediated growth and stress responses in sweet sorghum.

Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) is the most common cancer diagnosed among women in the world, with an ever-increasing incidence rate. Due to the dynamic increase in the occurrence of risk factors, including obesity and related metabolic disorders, the search for new regulatory mechanisms is necessary. This will help a complete understanding of the pathogenesis of breast cancer. The review presents the mechanisms of obesity as a factor that increases the risk of developing breast cancer and that even initiates the cancer process in the female population. The mechanisms presented in the paper relate to the inflammatory process resulting from current or progressive obesity leading to cell metabolism disorders and disturbed hormonal metabolism. All these processes are widely regulated by the action of microRNAs (miRNAs), which may constitute potential biomarkers influencing the pathogenesis of breast cancer and may be a promising target of anti-cancer therapies.

Abstract
Pathological complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NCT) is associated with good long-term prognosis in breast cancer (BC) patients. However, some patients still recur and eventually die from this disease. For years, clinical stage at diagnosis has been consistently linked to recurrence and survival in the pCR setting. Herein, we aimed to identify other potential predictors of recurrence and survival in patients that achieved pCR. We performed a retrospective analysis of patients diagnosed between 2011 and 2020 in our center. We calculated overall survival (OS), invasive disease-free survival (IDFS), distant disease-free survival (DDFS), and BC-specific survival (BCSS). Among the 241 patients included into our study 36% were obese (Body Mass Index (BMI) > 29.9 kg/m2) and 47% were stage III. Multivariate analysis confirmed that obesity was a significant risk factor associated with early recurrence and poorer survival in these patients. In summary, obesity and clinical stage predict early recurrence and poorer survival in patients that achieved pCR after NCT. Pending further investigation and based on our findings we speculate that weight management could be beneficial for this subset of patients. To our knowledge, this is the first Latin American report linking obesity and recurrence within this setting.

Abstract
Anthracyclines are standard-of-care chemotherapy for the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). However, high anthracyclines cumulative doses increase heart failure risk. Designing therapeutic strategies that ameliorate cardiac toxicities without compromising oncologic efficacy are important to improve TNBC outcomes and survivorship. The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of diet on TNBC chemotherapeutic responsiveness and development of chemotherapy-induced cardiac damage. Female BALB/c mice fed a control, Western, Mediterranean, or Western + fish oil diet were injected with 1 × 106 4T1-luciferase TNBC into the mammary fat pad. Tumors grew for 21 days before surgical tumor resection, then mice were treated with 3.3 mg/kg i.v. doxorubicin for 3 weeks. Vevo (R) cardiac ultrasound was performed. Female nu/nu mice were placed on diets before 1 × 105 MDA-MB-231-luciferase TNBC were injected via the tail vein to induce the development of lung metastases. Mice were treated with saline or 3.3 mg/kg i.v. doxorubicin for 3 weeks, and the development of metastases visualized by IVIS (R). Consumption of a high-fat diet increased TNBC growth regardless of dietary pattern. Western diet-fed mice developed lung metastases sooner and displayed increased lung metastatic lesion formation, which was not observed in Mediterranean diet-fed mice. Western diet-fed animals displayed worse cardiac function when compared with Mediterranean diet-fed animals. Hearts from Western diet-fed animals displayed increased fibrosis. Diet represents a modifiable component directly impacting tumor growth, antitumor chemotherapy efficacy, and cardiac toxicities. Our data suggest that the Mediterranean diet may reduce lung metastatic lesions formation and prevent the development of cardiac toxicities.

Abstract
Obesity is defined as a chronic disease induced by an imbalance of energy homeostasis. Obesity is a widespread health problem with increasing prevalence worldwide. Breast cancer (BC) has already been the most common cancer and one of the leading causes of cancer death in women worldwide. Nowadays, the impact of the rising prevalence of obesity has been recognized as a nonnegligible issue for BC development, outcome, and management. Adipokines, insulin and insulin-like growth factor, sex hormone and the chronic inflammation state play critical roles in the vicious crosstalk between obesity and BC. Furthermore, obesity can affect the efficacy and side effects of multiple therapies such as surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, endocrine therapy, immunotherapy and weight management of BC. In this review, we focus on the current landscape of the mechanisms of obesity in fueling BC and the impact of obesity on diverse therapeutic interventions. An in-depth exploration of the underlying mechanisms linking obesity and BC will improve the efficiency of the existing treatments and even provide novel treatment strategies for BC treatment.

Abstract
Background Obesity at breast cancer (BC) diagnosis has been associated with poor outcome, although the magnitude of effect in different BC subtypes is uncertain. We report on the association of obesity or overweight at diagnosis of nonmetastatic BC with disease-free (DFS) and overall survival (OS) in the following defined subtypes: hormone receptor positive/HER2 negative (HR+HER2−), HER2 positive (HER2+), and triple negative (TNBC). Methods We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, and COCHRANE databases up to January 1, 2019. Study eligibility was performed independently by 2 authors. Studies reporting hazard ratios (HRs) of OS and/or DFS for obesity or overweight in BC subtypes were included. The pooled hazard ratio was computed and weighted using generic inverse variance and random effects models. Results Twenty-seven studies were included. Obese compared with nonobese women had worse DFS in all subtypes: the hazard ratios were 1.26 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.13 to 1.41, P < .001) for HR+HER2− BC, 1.16 (95% CI = 1.06 to 1.26, P < .001) for HER2+ BC, and 1.17 (95% CI = 1.06 to 1.29, P = .001) for TNBC. OS was also worse in obese vs nonobese women (HR+HER2− BC HR = 1.39, 95% CI = 1.20 to 1.62, P < .001; HER2+ BC HR = 1.18, 95% CI = 1.05 to 1.33, P = .006; and TNBC HR = 1.32, 95% CI = 1.13 to 1.53, P < .001). As opposed to obesity, overweight was not associated with either DFS or OS in HER2+ BC (HR = 1.02, 95% CI = 0.81 to 1.28, P = .85; and HR = 0.96, 95% CI = 0.76 to 1.21, P = .99, respectively) or TNBC (HR = 1.04, 95% CI = 0.93 to 1.18, P = .49; and HR = 1.08, 95% CI = 0.81 to 1.44, P = .17), respectively. In HR+HER2− BC, being overweight was associated with worse OS (HR = 1.14, 95% CI = 1.07 to 1.22, P < .001). Conclusions Obesity was associated with modestly worse DFS and OS in all BC subtypes.

Abstract
Introduction There is extensive evidence associating the response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NeoCT) with breast cancer (BC) survival. However, to the author’s knowledge, there is no published data in Chile. The objective of the study is to evaluate whether achieving pathological complete response (pCR) after NeoCT is associated with greater survival and lower risk of recurrence in a Chilean Public Health Service. Methods Retrospective analysis of a database. Patients with a diagnosis of Stages I–III BC who received NeoCT between 2009 and 2019 were included. Clinical and pathological information were extracted from the clinical records. BC subtypes were defined using hormone receptor (HR) information (HR: oestrogen and/or progesterone) and epidermal growth factor type 2 (HER2), being divided into four groups: HR+/HER2−, HR+/HER2+, HR−/HER2+, HR-/HER2−. pCR was defined as the absence of invasive cancer in the breast and axilla (ypT0/is N0) after NeoCT. Results Of 3,092 patients, 17.2% received NeoCT. Of these, 40.2% corresponded to HR+/HER2−, 20.9% HR+/HER2+, 18.2% HR−/HER2+ and 20.7% HR−/HER2−. Overall, 24.8% achieved pCR, being the lowest for HR+/HER2− (10.3%) and the highest for HR−/HER2+ (53.2%). In the multivariable analysis, family history, HER2+ and type of chemotherapy were associated with a greater probability of pCR. With a median follow-up of 40 months, the overall survival and metastasis-free survival (MFS) at 3 years were greater for the group with pCR compared to that which did not achieve it (90.5% versus 76.7%, p = 0.03 and 88.5% versus 71.4%, p = 0.003, respectively). The multivariable analysis confirmed this finding. Brain MFS was similar in both groups. Conclusion NeoCT is associated with greater pCR in aggressive BC subtypes. In those, achieving pCR was associated with better survival in our study. To the author’s knowledge, this is the first study which evaluates the relation between pCR and BC subtypes in a Chilean public hospital.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While obesity is thought to increase complication rates in general surgery procedures, its effect in mastectomy patients remains to be fully elucidated. We sought to determine if obesity is associated with a higher complication rate and length of stay after mastectomy, independent of clinicopathologic and treatment factors. METHODS Medical records of breast cancer patients undergoing mastectomy at our institution between January 2010 and December 2017 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients were separated into obese (body mass index [BMI] ≥ 30) and nonobese (BMI < 30) categories and compared using nonparametric statistical analyses. RESULTS Of 927 patients, 291 (31.2%) were obese. Obese patients had more complications (26.5% vs. 20.0%, P = 0.033) and a greater number of complications per patient (P = 0.025) than nonobese patients. They were more likely to have infections (10.7% vs. 5.7%, P = .009), flap thrombosis/necrosis (5.5% vs. 2.4%, P = .018), and skin breakdown/wound complications (8.6% vs. 4.6%, P = .022). Additionally, obese patients had longer hospital length of stay (LOS; LOS > 2 days: 77.7% vs. 65.2%, P < .001). Controlling for potential confounders, obesity remained associated with a higher rate of thrombosis/necrosis of flap (odds ratio [OR] = 2.26; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.01-5.08; P = .047) and LOS ≥ 2 days (OR = 1.82; 95% CI 1.23-2.69; P = .003). CONCLUSION Obese breast cancer patients undergoing mastectomy have more thrombosis/necrosis of flap and a longer hospital LOS than nonobese patients, regardless of other comorbidities and clinicopathologic/treatment factors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity is a known risk factor for breast cancer development; however, it is unclear whether obesity is associated with more aggressive disease. We sought to determine the relationship between obesity and tumor characteristics in breast cancer patients. METHODS Medical records of invasive breast cancer patients undergoing mastectomy at our institution between January 2010 and April 2018 were reviewed. Patients who had received neoadjuvant therapy were excluded. Patients were separated into obese (body mass index [BMI] ≥ 30 kg/m2) and nonobese (BMI < 30 kg/m2) categories and compared using nonparametric statistical analyses. RESULTS Of the 415 patients in this cohort, 124 (29.9%) were obese. Obese patients were more likely to present with larger tumors (tumor size ≥ 2 cm: 53.2% vs 41.0%, P = .024) and more node-positive disease (46.8% vs 28.9%, P = .001). Controlling for confounders, obesity was independently associated with node-positive disease (odds ratio [OR] = 2.00; 95% CI 1.24-3.21, P = .004), but not with tumor size ≥ 2 cm (OR = 1.38; 95% CI 0.87-2.21, P = .174). CONCLUSION Obesity is associated with node-positive disease at presentation independent of other factors.

Abstract
It has been suggested that obesity increases the incidence of metastatic breast tumors, resulting in higher rates of recurrence, and increased mortality; for that reason, the aim of this study was to investigate if different body mass indexes modified the clinicopathologic characteristics of breast cancer; as well as, the recurrence-free survival in postmenopausal Mexican-Mestizo women. Two hundred twenty postmenopausal women with operable breast cancer were included. A structured questionnaire was applied to explore the existence of potential risk factors. Body mass index (BMI) was determined in each case and patients were grouped in accordance to their BMI in: normal weight, overweight, or obesity. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and log-rank statistic were used to estimate recurrence-free-survival differences. Hormonal receptor(+)/HER2(-) was the most frequent breast cancer in all groups. Overweight women presented a statistically significant increased risk of this molecular subtype, with an odds ratio (OR) = 5.57; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.54-24.86; P = .004)). In addition, the triple-negative subtype was more frequent in women with a normal BMI in comparison to women with overweight (P = .016) or women with obesity. The heterogeneity in cancer subtypes regarding BMI was observed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed at exploring the correlation of microRNA (miR)-497/fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23) axis with major adverse cardiac and cerebral event (MACCE) occurrence in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients who underwent continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). METHODS Totally, 360 ESRD patients who underwent CAPD were enrolled. Their plasma samples were collected to detect miR-497 expression by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and FGF-23 level by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. All patients were followed up for 36 months, and the occurrence of MACCE during the follow-up was documented. RESULTS MiR-497 expression negatively correlated with FGF-23 level in ESRD patients who underwent CAPD (P < .001). The MACCE occurrence rate at 1, 2, and 3-year was 5.6%, 11.9%, and 15.0%, respectively. Furthermore, miR-497/FGF-23 axis high level (P < .001) and miR-497 high expression (P = .034) correlated with reduced accumulating MACCE occurrence, whereas FGF-23 high level (P = .008) correlated with increased accumulating MACCE occurrence. Forward stepwise multivariate Cox's regression disclosed that miR-497/FGF-23 axis high level (P = .008) was an independent predictive factor for lower accumulating MACCE occurrence, whereas age (≥55 years) (P < .001), body mass index (≥21.7 kg/m2 ) (P = .006), peritoneal dialysis duration (≥61.0 months) (P < .001), C-reactive protein (≥4.7 mg/L) (P = .001), serum uric acid (≥409.4 μmol/L) (P = .009), β-fibrinogen (≥5.8 mmol/L) (P < .001), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (≥2.7 mmol/L) (P = .003) were independent factors for predicting higher accumulating MACCE occurrence. CONCLUSION MiR-497/FGF-23 axis holds clinical significance for predicting attenuated MACCE risk in ESRD patients who underwent CAPD.

Abstract
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) of breast cancer (BC) improves outcomes, especially in patients with locally advanced and inflammatory cancer. Further insight into clinic-pathological factors influencing outcomes is essential to define the optimal therapeutic strategy for each category of patients and to predict the response to the treatment. In total, 117 patients with BC were treated with NAC with or without trastuzumab between 2010 and 2015. The histologic response to NAC was defined as a pathological complete response (pCR) when there was no evidence of residual invasive tumor in the breast or axillary lymph nodes. Relapse-free survival (RFS) was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using log rank analysis. P-value <0.05 was considered statistically significant. The median age of the 117 patients enrolled in the present study was 52 years (age range, 35-85 years). The overall response rate (complete and partial responses) assessed by radiological and pathological evaluation were 76 and 72%, respectively. pCR was achieved in 35 out of 117 patients (~30%). In total, 6 patients (5%) developed progressive disease during chemotherapy. The RFS was 85 months (SE=3; 95% CI 79-91). The median was not reached and the mean follow-up time was 55 months (median 52 months; range 11-100 months). In this time, 20 patients (17%) experienced tumor recurrence. From the univariate analysis, the pathological response was significantly associated with receptor-based subtype, menopausal status and T-stage. From the multivariate analysis by using linear multiple regression and including receptor- menopausal status and T-stage, the model was not significant (P=0.062). However, by using the multiple logistic regression, and including age, pCR was significantly associated with ER+ HER2neg (P=0.006), T2 (P=0.043) and T3 (P=0.018). T-stage, menopausal status and receptor status are significantly associated with the pathological response in patients with inoperable BC treated with NAC.

Mol Oncol 2019; 13:894-908. [PMID: 30636104 PMCID: PMC6441886 DOI: 10.1002/1878-0261.12444] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/03/2018] [Revised: 12/05/2018] [Accepted: 12/21/2018] [Indexed: 12/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Obesity is a risk factor for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) incidence and poor outcomes, but the underlying molecular biology remains unknown. We previously identified in TNBC cell cultures that expression of epigenetic reader methyl-CpG-binding domain protein 2 (MBD2), specifically the alternative mRNA splicing variant MBD variant 2 (MBD2_v2), is dependent on reactive oxygen species (ROS) and is crucial for maintenance and expansion of cancer stem cell-like cells (CSCs). Because obesity is coupled with inflammation and ROS, we hypothesized that obesity can fuel an increase in MBD2_v2 expression to promote the tumor-initiating CSC phenotype in TNBC cells in vivo. Analysis of TNBC patient datasets revealed associations between high tumor MBD2_v2 expression and high relapse rates and high body mass index (BMI). Stable gene knockdown/overexpression methods were applied to TNBC cell lines to elucidate that MBD2_v2 expression is governed by ROS-dependent expression of serine- and arginine-rich splicing factor 2 (SRSF2). We employed a diet-induced obesity (DIO) mouse model that mimics human obesity to investigate whether obesity causes increased MBD2_v2 expression and increased tumor initiation capacity in inoculated TNBC cell lines. MBD2_v2 and SRSF2 levels were increased in TNBC cell line-derived tumors that formed more frequently in DIO mice relative to tumors in lean control mice. Stable MBD2_v2 overexpression increased the CSC fraction in culture and increased TNBC cell line tumor initiation capacity in vivo. SRSF2 knockdown resulted in decreased MBD2_v2 expression, decreased CSCs in TNBC cell cultures, and hindered tumor formation in vivo. This report describes evidence to support the conclusion that MBD2_v2 expression is induced by obesity and drives TNBC cell tumorigenicity, and thus provides molecular insights into support of the epidemiological evidence that obesity is a risk factor for TNBC. The majority of TNBC patients are obese and rising obesity rates threaten to further increase the burden of obesity-linked cancers, which reinforces the relevance of this report.

Abstract
Breast cancer accounts for 25% of all types of cancer in women, and triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) comprises around 15~20% of breast cancers. Conventional chemotherapy and radiation are the primary systemic therapeutic strategies; no other FDA-approved targeted therapies are yet available as for TNBC. TNBC is generally characterized by a poor prognosis and high rates of proliferation and metastases. Due to these aggressive features and lack of targeted therapies, numerous attempts have been made to discover viable molecular targets for TNBC. Massive cohort studies, clinical trials, and in-depth analyses have revealed diverse molecular alterations in TNBC; however, controversy exists as to whether many of these changes are beneficial or detrimental in caner progression. Here we review the complicated tumorigenic processes and discuss critical findings and therapeutic trends in TNBC with a focus on promising therapeutic approaches, the clinical trials currently underway, and potent experimental compounds under preclinical and evaluation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between obesity and disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) of triple-negative breast cancer. METHODS Citations were searched in PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science. Random effect model meta-analysis was conducted by using Revman software version 5.0, and publication bias was evaluated by creating Egger regression with STATA software version 12. RESULTS Nine studies (4412 patients) were included for DFS meta-analysis, 8 studies (4392 patients) include for OS meta-analysis. There were no statistical significances between obesity with DFS (P = .60) and OS (P = .71) in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients. CONCLUSION Obesity has no impact on DFS and OS in patients with TNBC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity may negatively affect survival in breast cancer (BC), but studies are conflicting, and associations may vary by tumor subtypes and race/ethnicity groups. METHODS In a retrospective review, we identified 273 women with invasive BC administered Adriamycin/Taxane-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy from 2004 to 2016 with body mass index (BMI) data at diagnosis. Obesity was defined as BMI ≥30. Associations between obesity and event-free survival (EFS), using STEEP events, and overall survival (OS), using all-cause mortality, were assessed overall and stratified by tumor subtype [[Hormone Receptor Positive (HR+)/HER2-, HER2+, and Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC])] in our diverse population. RESULTS Median follow-up was 32.6 months (range 5.7-137.8 months). Overall, obesity was associated with worse EFS (HR 1.71, 95% CI 1.03-2.84, p = 0.04) and a trend towards worse OS (p = 0.13). In HR+/HER2- disease (n = 135), there was an interaction between obesity and hormonal therapy with respect to OS but not EFS. In those receiving tamoxifen (n = 33), obesity was associated with worse OS (HR 9.27, 95% CI 0.96-89.3, p = 0.05). In those receiving an aromatase inhibitor (n = 89), there was no association between obesity and OS. In TNBC (n = 44), obesity was associated with worse EFS (HR 2.62, 95% CI 1.03-6.66, p = 0.04) and a trend towards worse OS (p = 0.06). In HER2+ disease (n = 94), obesity was associated with a trend towards worse EFS (HR 3.37, 95% CI 0.97-11.72, p = 0.06) but not OS. Race/ethnicity was not associated with survival in any subtype, and there were no interactions with obesity on survival. CONCLUSIONS Obesity may negatively impact survival, with differences among tumor subtypes.
