 E-Mail BOSTON - New research reveals that when breast cancer cells spread to the brain, they must boost production of fatty acids, the building blocks of fat, in order to survive there. The work, which is published in Nature Cancer and was led by investigators at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) and the Koch Institute of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), points to a potential new treatment target for shrinking brain tumors that arise secondary to breast cancer. Therapies that target the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) have transformed treatment for patients with breast cancer whose tumor cells express HER2, but brain metastases from this disease are typically fatal because they are resistant to anti-cancer therapies that are effective in other locations in the body. This is in part due to the blood-brain barrier that protects the brain against circulating toxins and pathogens, but changes in the cancer cells once they reach the brain may also
