## Abstract Profilinโ1 (Pfn1), a ubiquitously expressed actinโbinding protein, has gained interest in epithelialโderived cancer because of its downregulation in expression in various adenocarcinoma. Pfn1 overexpression impairs tumorigenic ability of human breast cancer xenografts thus suggesting th
Overexpression of profilin reduces the migration of invasive breast cancer cells

## Abstract Claudinโ16 (Paracellinโ1) is a transmembrane tight junction (TJ) protein originally described as having a critical role in the reโabsorption of magnesium and calcium in the kidney. This study examined expression of Claudinโ16 in human breast cells and tissues to identify a possible link
Polyamines (PA) have been shown to be critical mediators of estradiol-induced breast cancer cell proliferation. This finding suggests that constitutive activation of the PA pathway may promote tumor progression, possibly leading to hormone independence. To test this hypothesis, we transfected hormon
We have examined the role of urokinase receptor (uPAR) in tumor invasion and metastasis by developing a homologous model of uPAR overexpression in a rat breast cancer cell line (Mat B III) using gene transfer technique. Control (pRc-CMV) and experimental plasmid (pRc-uPAR-S) were transfected into Ma
## Abstract The focus of this study was to gain insight into the role(s) of osteonectin in the preferential metastasis of breast cancer cells to bone. Osteonectin was isolated from conditioned media of several cell lines including breast cancer (MDAโMBโ435, MDAโMBโ468), osteoblasts (hFOB1.19), nonโ
