Breast Density and Estradiol Are Major Determinants for Soluble TNF-TNF-R Proteins in vivo in Human Breast Tissue

Abstract: High mammographic density and exposure to sex steroids are independent risk factors for breast cancer by yet unknown mechanisms. Inflammation is one hallmark of cancer and the tumor necrosis factor family of proteins (TNFSFs) and receptors (TNFRSFs) are key determinants of tissue inflammation. The relationship between TNFSFs/TNFRSFs and breast tissue density or local breast estradiol levels is unknown. We investigated whether TNFSFs and soluble TNFRSFs (sTNFRSFs) are dysregulated in vivo in human breast cancer… Show more

“…We also explored the relationship between different risk groups and immune checkpoints. In the high-risk group, the expression of tumor necrosis factor superfamily receptor/superfamily (TNFSF/TNFRSF) [49,50] was higher than that in the low-risk group. While the expression of CD40, HAVCR2, LAG3, and PDCD1LG2 is more in the low-risk group.…”

In the high-risk group, the expression of tumor necrosis factor superfamily receptor/superfamily (TNFSF/TNFRSF) [ 49 , 50 ] was higher than that in the low-risk group. At the same time, the expression of CD40, HAVCR2, LAG3, and PDCD1LG2 is more in the low-risk group.…”

“…The women were subjected to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) ( 18 , 19 ). On the MRI lean tissue fraction (LTF), as a continuous measure of breast density, was calculated in a volume selection of 20 x 20 x 20 mm in the upper lateral quadrant of the left breast, as previously described ( 19 , 20 ). In brief, 1.5 T Achieva MR scanner (Philips Healthcare, Best, Netherlands) using a dual breast seven-element breast coil was used.…”
