Advances in fundamental and translational breast cancer research in 2022

Abstract

According to the data released by the International Cancer Research Institute of the World Health Organization (WHO), breast cancer is the malignant tumor with the highest incidence rate in women, and seriously endangers women's health.Many impressive advances have been achieved in fundamental and translational research of breast cancer, which deepened the understanding of the molecular nature of breast cancer and provided new scientific strategies for the precision treatment of breast cancer. This paper summarized the annual advances in fundamental and translational breast cancer research in 2022 in seven sections: tumor metabolism, tumor microenvironment, microbes and tumors, tumor metastasis, tumor drug resistance and drug screening, multi-omics research and artificial intelligence. Furthermore, we proposed an outlook on the future directions of breast cancer research to provide a reference for future studies.
