Involvement of EZH2-MYC loop and SALL4 in Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) and trastuzumab resistance process in HER2+ breast cancer

2021

Breast cancer (BC) is the most common type of cancer in females worldwide. It is also the second leading cause of death in women. BC is covered with heterogeneity properties, that leads to poor prognosis and therapeutic resistance. It has always been essential to unveil the different molecular mechanisms involved in BC cancer progression, finding a suitable treatment for the patients. This thesis focuses on unwrapping the various molecular mechanisms involved in HER2+ BC subtypes, as this denotes an aggressive phenotype among other subtypes of BC. Downregulation of miR-33b has been documented in many types of cancers and involves proliferation, migration, and epithelial-mesenchymal transiti…
