Exploring the effect of peri-operative inflammation on systemic and local breast cancer biomarkers
… disease can occur in up to 25% of patients with breast cancer. Pre-clinical research has suggested that the surgical insult can promote the growth of new metastases and facilitate seeding of micrometastases into the circulation. The exact mechanism underlying the pro-metastatic potential of the …

Discovery and validation of novel blood biomarkers of breast and prostate cancer
Identification of novel biomarkers of breast and prostate cancers to supplement current diagnostic, prognostic and predictive tools is an important clinical need. Interaction between the host’s immune system and tumours is reflected in detectable changes in profiles of proteins in blood cells and …

Luminescent Quantum Dot and Protein Composite Nanoparticles for Bioanalytical Applications
… for the detection of a protein expressed by breast cancer cells. The second project focused in more detail on the detection capabilities of the quantum dot-silica composites. Three different types of quantum dot-silica composites were prepared. Each type was loaded with a separate type of …

Exploring unique features and Mediterranean diet patterns of breast cancer patients in North Cyprus: implications for recovery
… of the diet can influence outcomes for breast cancer (BC) patients in Northern Cyprus, and to assess attitudes and dietary habits of BC patients during recovery. The research was undertaken in North Cyprus and and investigated the dietary habits of a cohort of 140 BC patients with a view …

Physical activity and breast cancer
Background: Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer and a leading cause of cancer death among females, both worldwide and in the UK. Although, UK incidence of breast cancer is rising, breast cancer mortality rates are falling, due largely to early detection and improved treatment. As …

Development of a Non-Invasive Proteomic Approach to Profiling Molecular Changes in the Microenvironment to Investigate Stages of Breast Health
Early detection of breast cancer is critical for increasing survival rates. However, currently available screening strategies provide ambiguous results, leaving invasive tissue biopsy procedures necessary for definitive diagnosis. Considerable efforts have investigated using nipple aspirate fluid …

BREAST CANCER DURING PREGNANCY AS A SPECIAL TYPE OF EARLY-ONSET BREAST CANCER: INSIGHTS INTO THE TUMOR MICROENVIRONMENT AND IMMUNE TRANSCRIPTOME
Breast cancer during pregnancy (PrBC) is a rare tumor with limited information on its immune landscape. Here, we sought to characterize the cellular composition of the tumor microenvironment (TME) and the immune transcriptome of PrBC to identify their differences from early-onset breast cancer …

The perioperative setting as a platform for breast cancer biomarker development
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women, with 2.3 million new cases globally in 2022 (1). ‘Neoadjuvant’ systemic therapy prior to surgery is the standard of care for stage II-III human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2) positive breast cancer. The identification of predictive …
