Abstract

Rapidly emerging ground-breaking discoveries have provided near to complete resolution of breast cancer signaling landscape and scientists have mapped the knowledge gaps associated with proteins encoded by the human genome. Based on the insights gleaned from decades of research, it seems clear that ligands transmit distinct information through specific receptors that is processed into characteristically unique biological outputs. Advances in imaging, structural biology, proteomics and genome editing have helped us to gain new insights into JAK-STAT signaling and how alterations in this pathway contributed to development of breast cancer and metastatic spread. Data obtained through high-throughput technologies has started to shed light on signal-transducer complexes formed during JAK-STAT signaling. Pharmacologists and molecular biologists are focusing on the strategies to therapeutically target this pathway to overcome drug resistance associated with breast cancer.
