In cancer research, cell lines are used to explore the molecular basis of the disease as a substitute to tissue biopsies. Breast cancer in particular is a very heterogeneous type of cancer, and different subgroups of cell lines have been established according to their genomic profiles and tumor
Experimental studies suggest a protective effect of B-vitamins on breast cancer risk, potentially modulated by alcohol intake. However, epidemiological studies are limited, especially regarding non-folate B-vitamins. Furthermore, few studies included quantitative assessment of supplemental intake.
The objective of this study was to investigate functional and molecular evidence of carrier mediated system responsible for biotin uptake in breast cancer (T47D) cells and to delineate mechanism of intracellular regulation of this transporter. Cellular accumulation of [3H] biotin was studied in T47D
Although osteonecrosis of the jaw is a well-known adverse reaction of bisphosphonates (BPs), random cases of oral mucosal ulceration after per os administration of BP-aledronate have been attributed to prolonged mucosal irritation. This report, for the first time, describes the mucosal ulceration
