Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Abstract 3144: Pleiotrophin drives a pro-metastatic immune niche within breast tumor microenvironment
Abstract
Immune cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME) can impact cancer cell invasion, seeding and colonization of secondary metastatic sites. Our findings show that Pleiotrophin (PTN), a unique and previously under-studied heparin binding cytokine, contributes to inflammation within the TME. PTN appears to be particularly efficient in recruiting neutrophils, which have been reported to cause immune suppression. Consequently, inhibition of PTN pharmacologically or genetically results in lower breast cancer metastasis to lungs and better survival in multiple mouse models of breast cancer. Corroborating our mouse studies, we have found that higher PTN expression in breast cancer patient plasma correlates with poor prognosis. Concurrently, stage IV breast cancer patients that have lower PTN expression have a highly significant survival advantage (median survival 78.27 months) over patients expressing high levels of PTN (median survival 27.5 months). Additionally, we have also found PTN positive cancer cells are enriched in metastatic lesions suggesting that PTN-high cancer cells are more successful at colonizing and surviving at the secondary site. Uncovering the function of PTN in these unique cancer cells might have a major impact in the clinical setting. Overall, our data suggests that PTN is important in driving a pro-metastatic immune niche within the TME that promotes tumor cell escape from the primary tumor and survival of metastatic cancer cells in secondary sites. Additionally, our studies highlight that inhibition of PTN has potential to reduce metastatic burden in breast cancer and suggest that future studies testing the combination of PTN inhibition with standard chemotherapy or immune therapy are warranted.
