Assessing the Tumor Suppressive Impact and Regulatory Mechanisms of SPDEF Expression in Breast Cancer

SPDEF functions as a tumor suppressor in breast cancer, with reduced expression linked to poor outcomes, aggressive molecular features, and epigenetic regulation. These findings highlight SPDEF and DNMT-driven methylation as potential prognostic biomarkers for enhanced risk stratification and targets for novel therapies, particularly in Basal breast cancers.

Abstract

SPDEF functions as a tumor suppressor in breast cancer, with reduced expression linked to poor outcomes, aggressive molecular features, and epigenetic regulation. These findings highlight SPDEF and DNMT-driven methylation as potential prognostic biomarkers for enhanced risk stratification and targets for novel therapies, particularly in Basal breast cancers.
