Description:Hoadley, Alan Hoyle, Julia M. This insight could reveal new approaches in the treatment and prevention of metastatic breast cancer. In a new study, University of North Carolina Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center researchers have identified genetic clues that explain how breast cancer spreads, or metastasizes - findings that may lead to better treatments or approaches to prevent its spread at the onset. By understanding how breast cancer metastases evolve, researchers hope to better explain how they occur. If metastatic cancers are most often made up of cells with different genetic drivers, perhaps researchers should be targeting the primary tumor with multiple drugs to contain the cancer. Often it was genes involved in cellular metabolism that were upregulated. The study was supported by Susan G.
