RESUMEN
Triple-negative breast cancer is a rare but highly heterogeneous breast cancer subtype with a limited choice of specific treatments. Chemotherapy remains the only efficient treatment, but its side effects and the development of resistance consolidate the urgent need to discover new targets. In TNBC, filamin A expression correlates to grade and TNM stage. Accordingly, this protein could constitute a new target for this BC subtype. Even if most of the data indicates its direct involvement in cancer progression, some contrasting results underline the need to deepen the studies. To elucidate a possible function of this protein as a TNBC marker, we summarized the main characteristic of filamin A and its involvement in physiological and pathological processes such as cancer. Lastly, we scrutinized its actions in triple-negative breast cancer and highlighted the need to increase the number of studies useful to better clarify the role of this versatile protein as a marker and target in TNBC, alone or in "collaboration" with other proteins with a relevant role in this BC subgroup.
