Excerpt

Cellular interactions with the extracellular matrix (ECM) control many aspects of cell function. The complex ECM protein Tenascin-C (TN), which exists as multiple isoforms, is upregulated in breast cancer. We previously have identified a change in the TN isoform profile in breast cancer, with detection of two additional isoforms — TN16 and TN14/16 — not seen in normal breast [1]. The purpose of this study was to investigate directly the effects of these tumour-associated TNC isoforms on breast cancer cell behaviour. …

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on antibody–drug conjugates in cancer

Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) are novel agents that have shown promise across multiple tumor types. Explore the current landscape of ADCs in breast and lung cancer with our experts, and gain insights into the mechanism of action, key clinical trials data, existing challenges, and future directions.
