Open AccessMacrophages Enhance Migration in Inflammatory Breast Cancer Cells via RhoC GTPase Signaling
Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is the most lethal form of breast cancer. All IBC patients have lymph node involvement and one-third of patients already have distant metastasis at diagnosis. This propensity f...

RhoC-GTPase is a Novel Tissue Biomarker Associated with Biologically Aggressive Carcinomas of the Breast
Background. There is a need for reliable predictors of breast cancer aggressiveness that will further refine the staging classification and help guide the implementation of novel therapies. We have identified Rho...

RhoC Induces Differential Expression of Genes Involved in Invasion and Metastasis in MCF10A Breast Cells
Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is the most deadly form of breast cancer in humans presumably due to its ability to metastasize from its inception. In our laboratory, overexpression of RhoC GTPase was observe...

Article
WISP3 and RhoC guanosine triphosphatase cooperate in the development of inflammatory breast cancer
Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is the most lethal form of locally advanced breast cancer. We found concordant and consistent alterations of two genes in 90% of IBC tumors when compared with stage-matched non...

Article
Mitogen activated protein kinase pathway is involved in RhoC GTPase induced motility, invasion and angiogenesis in inflammatory breast cancer
Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is the most lethal form of locally advanced breast cancer known. IBC carries a guarded prognosis primarily due to rapid onset of disease, typically within six months, and the p...

Article
WISP3 is a novel tumor suppressor gene of inflammatory breast cancer
Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is an aggressive form of breast cancer with a 5-year disease-free survival of less than 45%. Little is known about the genetic alterations that result in IBC. In our previous w...
