Research summary
AI-generated

Briana To studies how breast cancer spreads to other organs, particularly the lymph nodes and liver, using mouse models to understand the biology behind this process. Much of the work focuses on a gene called E2F5 and its role in mammary gland development and tumor progression, alongside related work on cardiac side effects of chemotherapy drugs used in cancer treatment. This research aims to bridge findings from animal models to human breast cancer to inform clinical understanding and treatment approaches.
