The ZEB2/ACSL4 axis acts as a novel metastatic metabolic pathway that stimulates both lipogenesis and fatty acid oxidation, resulting in enhanced breast cancer invasion and metastasis.
The upregulation of TLN1 contributes to the metastasis of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), and a small-molecule C67399 was screened for blocking TLN1 and integrin β1 may hold promise for the treatment of TNBC.

SOX11+ breast tumours display reactivated embryonic developmental signalling and organogenetic features and are at elevated risk of developing metastases, so may benefit from more aggressive therapies.

Low-dose treatment targeting multiple pathways of a pro-metastatic signaling network reduces the metastatic output of heterogeneous tumors while minimizing compensatory network activation.

Global transcriptome analysis reveals that the transcription factor SOX4 can promote breast tumor development via tumor angiogenesis by promoting paracrine signalling through endothelin-1.

MYC and Twist1 drive metastasis by a novel non-cell-autonomous transcriptional mechanism of eliciting a cytokinome that mediates the crosstalk between cancer cells and macrophages, and its therapeutic blockade inhibits metastasis.
Senescence signals in tumor-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes inhibit their trafficking from deep cervical lymph nodes to meninges via downregulating VLA-4, leading to leptomeningeal metastasis.
